Carrel's Four is Good Enough

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Sam Greenwood opened under the gun for 1,000 and on the button, Charlie Carrel three-bet to 3,300. Both blinds folded, Greenwood called. Greenwood check-called 1,800 on {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs} before both players checked the {4-Diamonds} on the turn and {9-Hearts} on the river. Carrel showed {K-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and Greenwood mucked.

The next hand, Carrel opened for 750 from first position. Small blind Ben Tollerene and big blind Sam Greenwood called. All three of them checked the {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop and {K-Spades} turn. Tollerene checked the {8-Diamonds} on the river and Greenwood bet 6,325 with just 300 behind. Carrel folded right away, Tollerene followed suit after thinking about it for about 20 seconds.

Top Pair Good for Chidwick

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ben Tollerene raised to 700 from the cutoff and Stephen Chidwick opted to defend his big blind with the flop falling {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Clubs}.

Both players checked it through to the {a-Hearts} turn and checked through again to the {k-Clubs} river, which Chidwick led for 900. Tollerene called but mucked when Chidwick turned over {k-Spades}{10-Spades} to take it down.

Chidwick and Carrel Win Some From Tollerene

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Ben Tollerene made it 700 to go from under the gun and Stephen Chidwick called from the big blind.

Chidwick checked the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop over to Tollerene, who bet 600. Chidwick called and the turn came {10-Diamonds}.

This brought checks from both players, as did the {5-Diamonds} river. Tollerene showed {j-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a pair of nines but this was not enough to beat Chidwick's {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.

Charlie Carrel three-bet Sam Greenwood to 2,200 after Greenwood opened for 750 but folded to a shove. Carrel then got a walk the next hand.

Ben Tollerene opened the button to 700 the next hand and Carrel called from the big blind, checking the monochrome {2-Spades}{7-Spades}{8-Spades} flop over to Tollerene, who bet 900. Carrel called and the turn came down {q-Spades}.

Both players checked and then checked again on the {q-Diamonds} river. Tollerene turned over {7-}{9-} for two pairs - sevens and queens - but this was not enough to beat Carrel's {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

Tollerene Wins Some

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Ben Tollerene opened the button for 700 and Charlie Carrel in the big blind ended up his only caller. Carrel check-called a bet of 800 on {9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds} before both players checked the {3-Clubs} on the turn. Carrel checked again on the {5-Clubs} river and Tollerene answered with a bet of 2,200. Carrel tanked for a bit, tossed in a time breaker chip, and eventually called. Tollerene showed {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} for second pair and Carrel mucked.

Greenwood Shoves on Tollerene, Short Break

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Charlie Carrel took down a small pot preflop after three-betting from the small blind over the top of a Sam Greenwood open and then there were a couple of walks before there was a blind on blind battle between Ben Tollerene and Sam Greenwood.

Ben Tollerene completed the small blind before Sam Greenwood bumped it up to 1,000 from the big blind, which Tollerene called.

Both players checked the {7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop with Tollerene leading the {k-Clubs} turn for 700. Greenwood raised to 2,300 and Tollerene quickly folded.

Players have just taken a short break for some food so the clock is now paused. Watch this space and we will let you know when the action resumes.
