Big Slick Good for Galloway

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Joshua Thibodaux opened to 1,100 from the hijack and was three-bet to 3,600 by James Galloway in the cutoff, but then Tao Zhang on the button put in the cold four-bet to 7,800.

Thibodaux quickly got out of the way and Galloway called to see a flop of 1010Q.

Galloway then check-called a continuation bet of 4,500 from Zhang to see the Q on the turn. Both players decided to check and they went to the K on the river, which saw the action go check-check again.

Galloway flipped over AK for kings and queens and Zhang quickly mucked to award him the pot.

Pallitto Check-Raises Nguyen

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With around 7,000 in the middle, the action on the flop 8810 checked around to Tuan Nguyen who bet 2,300 and was called by James Pallitto.

On the turn K, Pallitto checked, Nguyen bet 6,000, and then Pallitto check-raised to 15,000.

Nguyen then went into the tank for a good 45 seconds before he decided to let it go and the pot was awarded to Pallitto.

Brassieur Takes it Down

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

On a three-way flop of 9JQ, there was around 3,800 in the middle when Justin Brassieur bet 2,000 after a check from Jeffrey Nowling. Peter Lockwood made the call while Nowling got out of the way and the two saw the turn J.

Brassieur fired again for 5,200 but this time met no resistance as Lockwood promptly tossed in his cards.

Ross Triples with a Ten

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Curtis Ross moved all in preflop for his last 4,000 and was called by Christina Sharkady and Shawn Wilcox.

On the flop 259, Sharkady checked, Wilcox bet 6,000, and Sharkady folded to make it heads-up.

Curtis Ross: 910
Shawn Wilcox: 66

Wilcox was ahead with his pair of sixes, but the runout of 410 gave Ross a pair of tens on the river to save him from elimination and he was awarded the pot for the triple-up.
