Mateos Bricks a Bunch of Outs

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 600 ante

Adrian Mateos defended the big blind from an 11K open by Wei Zhao on the button and check-raised all in for 59K over a pot-sized c-bet on the {3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop. Zhao called with {j-Spades}{7-Spades} and had a fair amount to fade as Mateos turned over {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for a pair plus gutter.

The {k-Clubs} turn and {2-Spades} river were clean for Zhao.

Haxton Holds

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 600 ante

Isaac Haxton opened in the hijack, "illywilly97" three-bet to 30K in the cutoff, and Haxton shoved all in. He barely covered illywilly97, who called off about 160K with {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Haxton had the goods with {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

Things got hairy for the legend on the turn as it came {6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts} but the board paired again with the {8-Spades}.

Rudolph Busts With Rags

Level 13 : 2,250/4,500, 550 ante

Action folded to the small blind, where Chris Rudolph ripped in 62K. Darrell Goh called in the big with {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and Rudolph produced just {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

He got no help on {j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades} but a lot of it on the {8-Diamonds} to pick up a heap of outs. The {q-Spades} wasn't one of them.

Double KO for Watson

Level 13 : 2,250/4,500, 550 ante
Mike Watson
Mike Watson

Mike Watson opened early, Benjamin Rolle shoved for 55K in the hijack, and Mikita Badziakouski did the same for 115K in the big blind. Watson had an easy call.

Watson: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Badziakouski: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Rolle: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

It was a lovely spot for Watson and the {j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} board was just fine for him.
