Pusting Gets the Perfect River

Chris Land

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

A player in early position raised to 500 and got called by a player in middle position and Alex Pusting in the small blind leading to a Q♦6♣9♥ flop.

Pusting and the early position player checked to see the middle position player toss out a bet of 1,000. Pusting called and the early position player folded to bring out the 3♦ on the turn.

Action checked through to the 10♦ river and Pusting decided to lead with a bet of 5,000. The middle position player quickly called and showed the 10♥10♣ for a rivered set, which was second-best to the 5♦6♦ flush of Pusting.

His opponent said, "That's the only card in the deck that gets you paid off with a flush," as Pusting collected the pot.

It was a preflop raising war after arriving at Table 675 in the Gold section. Manuel Ruivo had a bet of 5,100 sitting in front of him while Tsugunari Toma reraised to 13,700 from the small blind. Ruivo jammed all in as the bigger stack and Toma called off his last 32,500.

Tsugunari Toma: A♣K♥
Manuel Ruivo: A♠K♣

The flop came K♦10♠5♥ and both players reached for their chips as now flush would be possible. The 3♥ and 2♦ runout was just a formality as the players chopped the pot.

Liam Gannon

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

A player raised to 1,200 in early position which saw four players call behind him including David Williams in late position and Alexandros Kolonias in the hijack. In the small blind another player raised to 6,500 which only the initial raiser and Kolonias called and all other players folded.

The flop of K♣7♣6♠ saw action check around to Kolonias who bet 7,000 which only the small blind called.

An 8♠ peeled off on the turn where Kolonias bet 21,000 when checked to. The small blind pondered his decision for a bit before tossing his hand into the muck, ceding the pot to the WSOPE Main Event champion.

Maxime Taldir

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

"The hand should be on TV," said all players at Table 161 after the dealer collected all the cards in front of him.

According to them, a player in middle position opened to 600 and was called by the cutoff, the button, and Brittney Stout in the small blind. In the big blind, Devin Chojnacki decided to three-bet. It didn't change the situation, as every player called.

On the flop 8♠3♦4♦, the middle position player continued to 2,000 and the cutoff folded. However, the button chose to move all in for 40,000 chips. Stout also had a hand and reraised all in. All the other players folded.

Button: 8♣8♦
Brittney Stout: 5♦2♦

Stout had a straight draw, a flush draw, and an open-ended straight-flush draw against a top set. The turn brought the A♥, completing her straight, and the river brought the 6♦, giving her a straight flush. Thanks to this hand, she took all her opponent's chips and climbed to 140,000.
