Talbot Lets It Go on River but Gets Instant Revenge

Richard Hayes

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

There was 5,200 in the middle and the board read Q♥10♦3♣ when Joao Mestre Ferreira check-called a bet of 800 from PokerStars Ambassador Parker Talbot.

On the A♣ turn, Mestre Ferreira again check-called a bet of 2,300 from Talbot.

The river brought the J♠ and this time Ferreira led out with a bet of 5,500, leading to a swift fold from Talbot.

On the very next hand, cards were on their backs and the same players were all-in, with Mestre Ferreira at risk.

Joao Mestre Ferreira: A♥5♥
Parker Talbot: K♠K♦

Talbot's kings were in great shape and improved to a set on the A♦6♦K♥ flop, with the 10♥ turn and 5♣ river sealing Mestre Ferreira's fate.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Michael Sebban: K♣K♦
Mohamed Mennane: 3♣5♣

Sebban had kings versus Mennane's flush draw, and was in trouble when the A♣ rolled off on the turn. However Sebban had the king of clubs and the 10♣ hit on the river to give him the higher one-card flush and the pot.

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Cards were on their backs and three players were all-in, with a short-stacked Victor Canaple and Daniele Sacchi at risk versus Ran Shahar.

Victor Canaple: K♦3♥
Daniele Sacchi: A♥K♠
Ran Shahar: A♠J♠

Sacchi seemed in great shape for a triple up, dominating Canaple with his better king and Shahar with his better ace.

However the 5♦6♥J♥6♠2♥ runout meant Shahar scooped the pot with a pair of jacks, sending him over the 100,000 mark.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Benjamin Spragg opened to 3,500 from the hijack and was called by Andrii Shestakov in the small blind and Eric Luong in the big blind.

Both players checked on the 6♣ turn and Shestakov led out for 10,500 after the Q♣ completed the board. Spragg announced he was all in, which was enough to put Shestakov all in for approximately his last 40,000.

Shestakov tanked a while, but eventually announced a call. Spragg tabled Q♦Q♠ for a rivered full house and Shestakov showed he held A♦10♦ as he stood up from the table.

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Parker Talbot limped from the button off around 11 big blinds and Patrick Faraut raised to 7,500 from the small blind. Talbot called.

On the 3♥7♣8♣ flop Faraut moved all in, putting Talbot to the test for the rest of his stack. Talbot made the quick call.

Parker Talbot: 9♥5♥
Patrick Faraut: A♥K♥

Talbot had a gutshot and a backdoor heart draw, although that wouldn't be much help against Faraut's hand.

Faraut had no pair either but was nevertheless ahead and the J♥10♥ runout gave both players a flush, sending Talbot to the rail.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Julien Sitbon opened to 8,000 in middle position and Erdal Gulseven moved all in for 29,000 behind him.

Erdal Gulseven: A♠K♠
Julien Sitbon: Q♥10♠

Sitbon continued "I thought they were suited" and Gulseven looked in good shape for a double-up after the J♥7♠3♥ flop.

However the 9♠ turn gave Sitbon an up-and-down straight draw and the K♣ rolled off on the river to complete his straight, sending Gulseven home.
