Joyce Runs Into Wiciak's Set

Maxime Taldir

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Simon Wiciak opened to 1,000 from middle position, then Toby Joyce to his left three-bet to 3,500. All the other players folded to Wiciak who called.

On a flop of 3♠J♦5♦, Wiciak check-called for 2,800, then check-called again after Joyce fired a second barrel of 10,500 on the 4♥ turn.

The 6♣ completed the board and Wiciak led out for 9,000. Joyce eventually called but ran into Wiciak's set with 3♥3♣. He showed a jack to the Frenchman.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

The early position player made it 1,100 and Monika Zukowicz three-bet to 3,200 from the hijack. Emery Martindale cold-called from the cutoff, and early position also called.

On the 8♠A♦6♦ flop, all three players checked to the 4♣ turn. The action was checked to Martindale who fired a bet of 5,000, which got folds from both of his opponents.

"I think I had the best hand," said Martindale as he raked in the pot.

Ollie Garland

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Vincent Gabel raised to 1,100 from middle position, Leo Fernandez called in the hijack, as did the small blind.

Both the small blind and Gabel checked to Fernandez on the A♠2♣7♠ flop. Fernandez bet out 1,600 and the small blind folded.

Gabel thought on his decision before announcing "I'm gonna fold and you're gonna show me the bluff..." before pitching his cards into the muck.

Fernandez raked in the pot as he showed A♣ for top pair, proving to Gabel that this time he had the goods.
