Schultz Doubles; Darrell's Big Bluff

Borgata Winter Poker Open Championship    

On a flop of 9 4 2, Dean Schultz was all-in against Sheree Bykofsky.  Sheree held pocket Queens, but had been bested on the flop by Dean's pocket 4s, which had flopped a set.  The last two cards were 3 A and Dean doubled up to ~55k.  Sheree was left with only ~250.

On the river with a board of Q J 4 6 K, (no flush possible) Neville Darrell bet 15,050 into the sizable pot.  Allan Vrooman tanked for a but, then folded.  Neville showed 32 off for squa-doosh as he chuckled and collected his pot.

End of level seven and players are being rewarded with a 10 minute break.  Breaks after each level today, rather than every two levels.
