Deja Vu for Duan?

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Rewinding back to the beginning of the day and Chao Duan was involved in a big pot that he lost against Jean Said. There were three deuces on the board and he called a big raise on the river, to be shown quads.

He was in a similar situation just now. Tobias Duthweiler had opened the cutoff and Duan called the button before the small blind made it three-handed to the flop. On a {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, the small blind checked and Duthweiler made it 8,300 to go. Only Duan called, taking them heads up to the turn.

It was the {6-Diamonds} and Duthweiler bet 28,500, leaving 50,000 and change behind. Duan tried to engage him in table talk, even asking if Duthweiler had a six. Perhaps the memory of the hand earlier had something to do with his decision or perhaps not, either way he decided to lay it down.

Altman Eliminated by Feldman

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante
Brian Altman
Brian Altman

WPT Champions Club member Brian Altman raised to 1,200 from under the gun, and Australian Joel Feldman three-bet to 3,600 from the button.

The blinds passed, and Altman elected to four-bet to 12,000 total. Feldman called, and on the {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop, Altman continued for 7,000.

Feldman called and the turn landed the {2-Spades}. Altman checked, and Feldman bet 7,000.

Altman called, and when the river landed the {2-Diamonds}, he checked again.

Feldman placed out two 25,000-denomination green chips into the bet, and Altman began deliberating for his 32,500 total.

Several minutes passed before Altman called all in.

Feldman tabled his {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} for deuces full of kings, while Altman revealed his {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a lesser full house and headed to the rail.
