Three Big Stacks Involved In Sizeable Pot

Level 15 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Steve Kitrel limped in from middle position and David Dickenman followed suit from the hijack. Action folded to the small blind who tossed in a red chip to call and Jason Fass in the big blind checked his option.

The flop fell {8-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} and when checked to, Kitrel took over the aggression, betting 20,000. Dickenman called and the other two players folded.

The {8-Spades} turn card didn't slow Kitrel down, as he bet 20,000 again. Dickenman called.

It was starting to feel like deja vu on the {5-Hearts} river, when again, Kitrel lead for 20,000. This time Dickenman mucked, moving Kitrel into chip lead contention.

Ang's Pocket Rockets Hold to Eliminate Opponent

Level 15 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to the button, who jammed with 110,000 behind. Aaron Ang, the big blind, asked "how much?" before making the call. His opponent tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} while Ang showed {a-}{a-}. Upon seeing this, the player in the small blind became upset, accusing Ang of a slow roll.

Ang seemed relatively unaffected by the player's outburst, stating "I have people behind me." Several players at the table were quick to point out that this was not true, as Ang was the big blind and last to act.

Some but not enough help came on the {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} board. With his aces giving him the superior two pair, Ang raked in a big pot.

Carnero Wins Big Pot After Intense Stare Down

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

With 55,000 in the middle and a flop of {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} the big blind bet 17,000 and was called by Martin Carnero in the small blind.

Throughout the entirety of the hand, both players were staring intently at each other with neither daring to blink. The {2-Spades} turn allowed the big blind to continue for 45,000. Carnero made the call.

The big blind bet 90,000 on the {6-Spades} river. Carnero cut out calling chips, then reviewed the remainder of his stack. He eventually slid in the calling chips and discovered his opponent only had ace-high with {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. Carnero tabled {k-Spades}{4-Spades} for a pair of fours which was good enough to win a huge pot.

Otterbein into Chip Lead Picture After Turning a Set of Threes

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The board read {6-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and there was around 60,000 in the pot already. From the big blind, Eric Otterbein led into his heads-up opponent for 30,000, who called.

The {5-Diamonds} river came to complete the board. Otterbein continued, now for 60,000. His opponent quickly called.

Otterbein showed his {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for the set. His opponent looked between the board and Otterbein's cards for a few moments before finally mucking his own.

Petleshkov Jams Turn

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

With roughly 40,000 in the middle on a flop of {4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}, Viliyan Petleshkov bet 20,000 in middle position and was called by the small blind.

The turn {q-Hearts} was checked over to Petleshkov and he put the pressure on by jamming as the covering stack.

After some thought his opponent decided on a fold and Petleshkov politely rolled over his {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} for a flopped set while dragging in the pot.
