Lijo Gives Up on the River

Adam Lamers

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Toby Lewis raised it up in the cutoff and Lander Lijo flat-called from the button. They went heads-up to a flop of Q♠10♠4♠ in which both players committed another 22,000 apiece.

The turn was the 5♠ and Lewis checked to Lijo who made a bet of 38,000. Lewis called and the 6♠ landed on the river. Lewis checked again and Lijo gave it some thought but decided to check it back. Lewis tabled A♥J♠ for a better flush than the board and Lijo conceded the pot.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Tony Dunst opened to 20,000 in early position and was called by Istvan Toro on his left and Patrik Antonius in the big blind. The flop came K♦4♦2♦ and the action checked through to the J♦ on the turn and the Q♥ on the river.

Antonius finally led out with a bet of 20,000 on the river and Dunst stuck in a raise to 80,000. Toro quickly folded but Antonius took some time before eventually following suit.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Kathrine Brandt Weir raised in the hijack with the 8♠8♥ and Chris Moneymaker just called in the cutoff with the A♠A♣.

Brandt Weir bet 15,000 with her set on the Q♥8♣4♠ flop and Moneymaker called again which brought them to the 9♥ turn. Brandt Weir now jammed for 169,000 after a long time of consideration and Moneymaker instantly called with his over pair.

The K♣ river brought no upset and Brandt Weir doubled.

William Anderson was all-in shortly after for 182,000 on the main feature table with the Q♠Q♦, up against Stephen Chidwick with the 8♥8♣.

The superior pair remained ahead all the way on the Q♣J♠3♠A♠9♠ board for Anderson to double.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Brian Lamanna opened in the cutoff before Domenico Gala three-bet to 60,000. The blinds got out of the way and Lamanna four-bet to 145,000. Gala announced all-in and Lamanna instantly called off his stack of 328,000.

Brian Lamanna: A♦A♣
Domenico Gala: A♠J♥

As the cards were tabled Gala said, "Ugh, I knew you had that."

The board ran out 9♦3♠2♦7♦5♥ for Lamanna's aces to hold as he raked in the pot.

Everyone Loves a Chop Pot

Ryan Lashmar

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A player in early position opened to 20,000 and Rolf Nordstrom moved all in from the hijack for approximately 150,000, quickly getting a call from his opponent who had him covered.

Rolf Nordstrom: A♥Q♣
Early Position: A♦K♦

"Of course it's ace-king for 15 big blinds" Nordstrom commented before the board ran out. He received no help against the dominating hand on the 9♦9♠9♥ flop but the J♣ turn did leave him with some outs to chop.

"Jack!" Nordstrom called for. Sure enough, the river was the J♦, giving both players a full house to chop the pot. Nordstrom could be heard afterwards saying how he didn't call for a queen, as that would have been selfish.

Maxime Taldir

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Kevin Gimble opened from under the gun to 20,000. All the other players folded, except for Nick Guagenti on the button who raised to 90,000. Gimble counted his stack and eventually called.

The dealer fanned a flop of 7♥4♠5♥, and Guagenti made a continuation bet of 75,000. Gimble called and checked on the turn J♠. Guagenti checked back, and the K♣ landed on the river.

This time, Gimble took the lead and bet 100,000. Guagenti observed Gimble for a few seconds and folded.
