Prasetyo Gets Paid Off by Johnson

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Razz

In a previous hand, Aditya Prasetyo folded on sixth when he had deuces and fours showing and Matt Vengrin raked in the pot.

Aditya Prasetyo: {x-}{x-} / {6-}{a-}{a-}{k-} / {x-}
Marco Johnson: {x-}{x-} / {2-}{4-}{4-}{10-} / {x-}

He then took on Marco Johnson, who bet fourth and was check-called by Prasetyo. They checked fifth and Johnson bet sixth when checked to. Prasetyo bet seventh and Johnson tank-called to get shown the {9-}{5-}{2-} for a nine-six low, which won the pot for Prasetyo.

2-7 Triple Draw

After the second draw, Young Phan was all-in for 76,000 total and patted. He was called by Justin Liberto who patted as well and revealed the {8-}{7-}{6-}{3-}{2-}. "Wow, I can't win," a shocked Phan said and then tossed his cards into the muck. He departs in 13th place for $7,626 and the remaining 12 players will now draw for the last two tables.

Liberto Leaves Phan Short

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Stud Hi-Lo

Young Phan: {6-Hearts}{2-Spades} / {5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Justin Liberto: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Hearts} / {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

"Look at that, Mike," Young Phan said after he had bricked a low draw and was scooped by Justin Liberto. He mashed his cards to reveal a bricked eight-six draw with a pair of deuces while Liberto had checked down seventh with just a pair of queens.

"Man, I am playing so bad," Phan admitted and Liberto replied "you just gotta bet it."
