Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Phil Ivey raised it up from under the gun and was called by two players including Matthew McNeil in the big blind. The flop came 8♦5♠4♠ and Ivey continued with a bet of 1,400 which only McNeil called.

The turn brought the Q♠ and both players checked to the K♠ on the river. McNeil made a small bet of 1,100 and Ivey quickly called. McNeil turned over J♠8♥ for a flush and Ivey looked stunned before he dumped his cards into the muck.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Heads-up in a blind versus blind pot, Thomas Keiser bet 1,000 on a flop of 10♥9♦2♦ and Ismael Bojang called.

The turn came the A♣ and Keiser again led out for 2,000. Bojang called once more as the K♥ fell on the river.

He now faced a bet of 6,000 from Keiser as Bojang leaned back in his chair. "Tom, Tom, what are you doing to me," Bojang said before he eventually tossed in a call.

Keiser turned over J♣8♠ for a bluff and Bojang showed K♦Q♠ for a rivered pair of kings to win the pot.

"Nice call," Keiser acknowledged after the hand.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Ramon Fernandez opened to 1,000 from under the gun and only a player in middle position made the call.

The flop came A♣8♠6♦ and Fernandez continued for 1,000, which his opponent called. The 10♥ hit the turn and Fernandez checked over to the player in middle position who took the lead with a bet of 2,400. Fernandez made the call and the 7♣ completed the board.

Both players checked to a showdown and Fernandez quickly tabled A♠5♠ for a pair of aces to take down the pot when his opponent mucked their cards.

Jesse Calls Down Three Streets

Chris Land

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A player in early position limped only to see Jay Jesse raised to 1,200 from late position. The initial limper called to see the J♠A♠6♠ flop.

The player in early position led for 1,500 and Jesse came along to see the 4♥ turn.

The early position player led again, this time for another 1,500 and again, Jesse was unconvinced and called to see the river come down the J♥.

The early position player bet again, this time sizing up to 7,000. Jesse didn't waste much time in calling down and showing 8♠8♣, which was good when his opponent simply flashed the 6♣ as Jesse collected the pot.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

David Williams raised to 800 in early position and picked up four callers along the way, which got a nod of appreciation from the former Master Chef contestant. The flop came 9♠4♣3♠ and the action checked around to the A♣ on the turn.

Williams took a stab at the pot with a bet of 2,500 and Massoud Eskandari was the only player to call from a couple of seats over. The K♠ completed the board and Williams fired out a bet of 7,600. Eskandari quickly folded and Williams flashed the A♠ while his other card fluttered in the air.

"Made a flush too," Williams pointed out.

Gaelle Jaudon

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

In a pot with three players involved, the flop showed A♠A♣Q♥ when the big blind checked and a player bet 2,200. Only Emery Martindale made the call in the cutoff.

The 6♠ turn went check-check and a Q♦ river brought two pair on the board. It checked to Martindale who bet 3,000 and his opponent quickly folded.

"I had everything here" said Martindale before showing A♦6♦ for the full house.
