Card Player is excited to announce a partnership with the Bicycle Casino and Live at the Bike, the industry’s leading live cash game webcast.

CardPlayer.com will host the live cash game streams for all Live at the Bike webcasts (every Tuesday and Friday, 7:30-10:30 p.m. PST) and also partner with Live at the Bike for special programming.

To celebrate the partnership, Card Player will be bringing you the cash game hand of the week, featured from a past episode of Live at the Bike.

Here’s a look at this week’s hand.

The Details

Game: $5-$10 uncapped no-limit hold’em
Approximate Stack Sizes: JCW ($1,200), Carl ($835) and Leo ($1,000)

Action: Six players limp in preflop and the flop comes down KClub Suit 8Club Suit 4Heart Suit. Everyone checks to the turn card, which is the 4Club Suit.

JCW bets $15 and both Carl and Leo call. The river is the 7Diamond Suit. JCW checks, Carl checks and Leo bets $60. JCW calls with KSpade Suit 5Club Suit and Carl folds his busted flush draw. Leo shows down AHeart Suit 4Diamond Suit for trips and takes down the $195 pot.

The Questions

Why do you think JCW opted not to bet top pair on the flop? Was Carl getting the right odds to draw to the second nut flush on a paired board? Should Leo have raised the turn, or was he correct to just call? Is there any way for JCW to get away from his king on the river? Could Leo have bet more and still been called?
