Howe'ay the lad

Luong-Huu Bui raised to 80k in middle position. A crippled Richard Howe had 10k invested in the small blind and the call was obligatory as he only had a further 5k behind. He had 7 7 against Bui’s A 9. The flop of J 4 8 was good for Howe but running 9 9 on turn and river sent him out of the tournament in 6th place. He takes home £5,000.

Rupinder Bedi moves in under the gun for 71,300. Richard Howe thinks before calling with A Q which is in big trouble against K K The flop of J J 9 doesn’t bring the ace Richard needs but the turn of 3 gives him the nut flush possibility. A blank 7 on the turn doubles up Bedi to 150,000 however.

River Bedi

Rupinder Bedi moved all-in for 21k in early position and Richard Howe reraised a further 39k in the small blind. Big blind Steve Milton appeared to have a tough decision but eventually passed. A 3 for Bedi versus K 4 for Howe. The first two cards out K 4 appeared to extinguish all hope for Bedi but the presence of the 3 on the flop gave him some succour. The turned J did not help the all-in player but the rivered 3 resuscitated him.
