Katz Kinged, NEWSat11 (5th)
2 years ago
Adam "AKat11" Katz raises to $110,000 and Robert Richardson makes the call in the big blind. The flop comes Q
6
5
and Richardson bets out $140,000. Katz gives the matter some thought before moving all-in for his last $765,000 and Richardson snap-calls, turning up K
7
for the heart-flush draw to Katz's Q
J
for top pair.
The pro-Katz crowd is on their feet, screaming for no hearts, and the turn card is the 6
. Katz dodges the first bullet and his entourage starts calling for the 6
. "Don't even say that word," says Katz. "I know what you mean, but still."
The crowd is on its feet heading to the river, which brings the dagger K
, surprising anyone who'd forgotten that Richardson had the over card. It's good for the pot and Katz is eliminated, out in fifth place for $151,811.

Can I Be Frank With You
2 years ago
Frank Cieri continues his takeover of the final at Foxwoods. He made it $120k in a hand just a few minujtes back and Andrew Barta bumped it up to $310k total. Cieri called the $190 more and the flop came J
8
9
. Cieri checked, and Barta bet out $380k.
Suddenly, Cieri moved all in so fast it made Barta's head spin. Seriously it was spinning. We swear. Once it stopped, Barta looked at the $1.019 million bet and decided to fold.
Value Town
Erik Seidel has taken yet another pot from Adam Katz. In a limped blinds situation Katz bets $70k on the 6
5
5
flop and Seidel calls. The turn is the 6
and both players check. The river is the A
and after Katz checks, Seidel makes it $80k.
"Welcome to value town," Katz moans, making the call only to muck when Seidel shows an ace. These two are headed towards a big confrontation. We can smell it.

4
3
and Katz checks to Seidel, who bets out $375,000. Katz mucks his hand and the Full Tilt pro takes the pot.
Barta Flexes
Robert Richardson limps-in and Andrew Barta joins him in the pot before Katz raises to $140,000. Richardson flat-calls and Barta moves all-in over the top for $1.5 million. Katz doesn't like it and he lays the hand down and Richardson follows suit. Barta takes the pot.

, prompting another check from Richardson, a $160,000 wager from Forrest and a call from Katz before RR re-pops all-in for another $647,000.

7

Forrest Cut!
2 years ago
Andrew Barta just doubled through Ted Forrest in a hand Ted could have and should have ran away from. The action started with Forrest making it $70k under the gun and Andrew Barta raising it up to $210k total right behind him. When it folded back around to Forrest he made the mistake of moving all in for $1.4 million and Barta quickly called.
It was K
K
for Barta and 9
9
for Forrest as they see a J
4
Q
