Tyler Foran

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Jered Laurence limped in middle position before Rep Porter raised to 56,000 in the hijack. The action folded back around to Laurence who made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♣10♠2♣, and Laurence check-called a bet of 45,000 from Porter.

Both players tapped the table on the 8♣ turn, and the 4♦ fell on the river.

Laurence checked once more, and snap-called the 110,000 bet from Porter. Laurence tabled Q♠Q♣8♦7♣ for the second nut flush, and Porter mucked his hand.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Three players saw the 9♥4♦2♠ flop, and once Aditya Sadhu checked, Erick Lindgren bet 80,000 into the pot of 121,000. Najeem Ajez made the call, and Sadhu announced a pot-sized raise of 441,000.

Lindgren went deep into the tank, taking several minutes before deciding to fold, and Ajez quickly folded behind.

"Show one," Said Lindgren.

Sadhu responded, "You pick."

Lindgren grabbed one of Sadhu's cards, and exposed the 5♥, as he let out a "F*ck."

The hijack opened the pot to 50,000 before getting three-bet to 160,000 from Andrew Whitaker in the cutoff.

Michael Duek put in another raise from the button to 380,000 and the hijack quickly got out of the way. Whitaker called all in and players went heads up to a full board with Whitaker at risk.

Andrew Whitaker: A♠A♥3♣2♠ All in
Michael Duek: K♣K♦J♣4♦

The flop gave Duek top set on 4♣2♥K♥ but the A♦ turn put Whitaker back in the lead. The 6♠ river gave Whitaker the pot and a new life in the tournament.

Earlier this month, thanks to an unfavorable city vote, Doug Polk was unsuccessful in his bid to open a massive poker room in a town near Dallas. But his team of investors, including poker vloggers Andrew Neeme and Brad Owen, are back and ready to take over what will soon become the largest card room in Texas.

Polk, who is playing in the Hustler Casino Live Million Dollar Game this week, announced during Wednesday's HCL stream that his team has purchased Rounders Card Club in San Antonio. The group already owns The Lodge Card Club in Round Rock, a suburb of Austin, and that room is currently the biggest in the Lone Star State with over 70 poker tables.

Level 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Sterling Savill limped before Ryan Laplante put in a raise to 72,000. Julien Sitbon called in the big blind, and Savill matched the bet.

The dealer fanned a flop of J♠4♦3♦, and once checked to, Laplante continued for 80,000. Sitbon got out of the way, and Savill announced 'pot'. Laplante instantly put the rest of his 391,000 across the line and both hands were turned on their backs.

Ryan Laplante: A♦A♥Q♦J♥ All in
Sterling Savill: 7♣6♦5♥4♣

Laplante had a pair of aces and the nut flush draw, and was able to fade the wrap of Savill as the board completed with the 8♠ turn, and K♣ river.
