Baxter Fades Flush to Bust Larsen

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Three-way to a turn of 810Q6, Mark Baxter checked out of the big blind to Brady Hinnegan under the gun, who made a bet of 5,000 into the pot of 10,000 chips.

Birger Larsen then shoved all in for 25,500 from the cutoff and Baxter reshoved for 45,000 chips. Hinnegan quickly mucked his cards and the cards were shown down.

Birger Larsen: 65 All in
Mark Baxter: 1010

The 3 river did not bring a diamond for Larsen, resulting in his early elimination from Day 1b.

Gustafsson Gets Full Value to Grab Chip Lead

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Ulf Gustafsson
Ulf Gustafsson

In a four-way pot between Ulf Gustafsson in the small blind, Paul McGann in the big blind, Raitis Romanovs under the gun, and Keith Smith in the hijack, 4,000 chips had been gathered.

The flop read 1093 and the action checked to Smith, who fired a bet of 3,000. Gustafsson then made it 8,000 to go, which folded out McGann. Romanovs, however, called cold and Smith tossed in the extra chips as well.

On the subsequent 4 turn, Gustafsson sized up to 15,000. Romanovs quickly folded but Smith still stuck around with a call. Gustaffson then put Smith all in for 16,000 on the 10 river and the latter slammed in a call.

Gustafsson tabled KK for two pair with kings, beating the JJ Smith showed. Smith headed towards the exit while Gustafsson chipped up to a six-figure stack.

Hulme's Over-Bet Fails

Level 3 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

A modest pot of 3,500 lay in the middle between Aurelian Teodorescu in the big blind and Andrew Hulme in the hijack. Teodorescu checked to Hulme, who fired a big bet of 6,500 on the board of 86AA

Teodorescu weighed his options for a bit before calling and seeing the A fall on the river. The third ace on the board made Teodorescu lead out for 4,000 chips, and Hulme could only smile as he laid his cards down.

Gonzalez Bluffs Big

Level 3 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Alberto Gonzalez and Stephen Ryan arrived on a turn of 4329 in a pot already worth over 15,000 chips. Gonzalez then bet 8,500 from the small blind and Ryan called in early position.

On the 7 river, Gonzalez put enough chips in the middle to put Ryan all in for his final 16,100 chips. Ryan immediately called, leaving Gonzalez to show down his QJ for queen-high.

Ryan tabled 99 for top set and doubled up to nearly twice the starting stack.
