Level 12 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Michael Oscuro
Michael Oscuro

Michael Oscuro opened to 11,000 in middle position and was called by Peter Ingle, who defended his big blind.

Ingle checked the Q310 flop and called when Oscuro continued for 12,500. Another check from Ingle on the 2 turn saw Oscuro slide out another bet of 50,000.

Ingle responded by moving all in, which was quickly called.

Michael Oscuro: AA All in
Peter Ingle: Q7

Oscuro's aces held through the J river, confirming his double up. Ingle was left very short and was eliminated shortly after.

Jacks No Good For Ye

Level 10 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Sheng Ye opened to 6,500 from under the gun and was called by Marc Seymour in the small blind. Zheng Zhang also came along in the big blind to see the 1063 flop.

Both blinds checked to Ye, who continued for 7,500. Seymour then check-raised to 20,000, with Zhang folding behiind. Ye made the call and the dealer flipped over the 8 turn.

Seymour moved all in and Ye made the call.

Sheng Ye: JJ All in
Marc Seymour: 106

Ye's pocket jacks were trailing Seymour, who had flopped two pair. The 6 river gave Seymour an unnecessary full house, seeing Ye to the rail.
