Eyster Wins With Aggression

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante
Kevin Eyster
Kevin Eyster

Jonathan Dimmig raised to 2,000 from under the gun and was called by Kevin Eyster who sat directly to his left, along with the cutoff.

The {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop saw Dimmig continue for 2,000, in which Eyster and the cutoff called.

After the {3-Hearts} fell on the turn, action was checked to the cutoff who fired out 4,000 and Dimming called before Eyster raised to 16,000.

The check-raise did Eyster justice as both as both his opponents folded and he collected the pot.

Dasaklos Gathers Big Pot

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Demetrios Dasaklos was seen gathering a large pot with his {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} showing as the winner on a board that read {3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades}.

His opponent had the {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was left with very few chips after the chip counts were compared as Dasaklos now has a nice stack right after dinner break,

Tran Straightens One Out

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

JC Tran opened to 1,200 from under-the-gun and the player directly behind him shoved for his last 8,000. Action folded back around to Tran, who called to put his opponent at risk.

JC Tran: {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Utg+1: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Tran was dominated, but the {q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades} runout left Tran with a rivered straight and he collected the rest of his opponent's chips.

Frenz Finds Aces

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

John Frenz held the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} vs the {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} of his opponent who was already standing up as he say the bad news when the hands were tabled.

The board would not help the queens as it ran out {4-}{2-}{j-}{6-}{j-} and Frenz gathered in the critical pot.

Chen Calls Maor Down

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Daniel Maor opened to 1,100 from early position and was called by Sam Abernathy in the small blind and Pete Chen in the big.

It was checked to Maor on the {8-Spades}{j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop and he bet 1,800. Only Chen called.

Maor bet 6,000 after being checked to on the {3-Hearts} turn and Chen again called.

The {5-Diamonds} completed the board and Chen checked once more to Maor, who fired 18,500 into the middle.

Chen contemplated his decision for some time before eventually placing calling chips into the middle.

Maor tabled {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} for top two pair and Chen mucked — conceding the pot to Maor.
