A unique situation on Table 21; the dealer ran out of all-in buttons.

Anthony Pellegrini open shoved for 8,500 from under the gun and Tony March followed suit, shoving for 34,500 from middle position. The hijack player came along for about 12,000 and so did the cutoff for about 35,000.

Andre Cochran was sitting on the button wondering what was going on. He shrug-called for his 18,000 before the blinds saw the light and got out of the way.

Pellegrini:
March:
Hijack:
Cutoff:
Cochran:

Cochran was ahead but still only ~38% to hold while a lot of others were just blocking all over the place. The fun didn’t stop preflop because the board came out for set-over-set between Cochran and Pellegrini.

The turn put some straight draws out there but the river finished the board and the dealer went about settling the pot.

Pellegrini and the hijack were eliminated, Cochran pulled a full double from both March and the cutoff, and March was given a rebate for his big slick.

“I didn’t lose anything,” March laughed with the table.

Before the first break, Ashley Spring was heads up from the button with her opponent in the cutoff and the board reading . Her opponent checked, Spring bet 8,000 and he went all-in. Spring quickly called with the bigger stack and the better hand.

Spring:
Cutoff:

Both flopped a set but Spring was best with her set of kings and started stacking his chips after the river.
