Frank Visser

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Dumitru-Adrian Pora and Margarita Stoycheva were heads up on a completed board of Q♦K♠5♣7♠8♥. Stoycheva checked from the big blind to Pora in the hijack.

He then fired 39,500 into a pot of 35,000. Stoycheva asked her opponent if he would show if she folded but chucked in a call after getting no response.

Pora tabled K♥Q♥ for top two pair and he was shipped the big pot as Stoycheva's cards hit the muck.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Robert Grossglauser had moved all in preflop for roughly 20,000 chips over an open from Max Sharpe. Sharpe snap-called and the cards were revealed.

Robert Grossglauser : A♣A♠ All in
Max Sharpe : K♦K♣

The flop fell A♦2♣K♥ improving both players to a set. The 2♦ on the turn and 4♦ river didn't bring Sharpe the one outer he needed to eliminate Grossglauser.

Tyler Boyer

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn with roughly 13,000 in the pot and a board showing 4♥9♥10♥Q♦.

Tristan Bain in early position checked to Chris Brewer on the button. Brewer bet out 8,000 and was called by Bain.

The river card was the 3♠ and after Bain checked to Brewer, he bet out 30,000. Bain wasted little time making the call and was shown 8♥6♥ by Brewer for a flopped flush. Bain mucked his cards and gave the pot to Brewer.

Jeff McMillan

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The board read 9♦9♠8♠A♥2♣ on the river. Justin Young bet 6,500 from the cutoff into a pot of 12,500. Christopher Ackerman was in the small blind and raised to 16,000 which was for nearly all his chips as he left just 100 chips behind.

Young mulled it over and studied Ackerman. And eventually he made the decision to fold. "Good bluff" he said which Ackerman neither confirmed nor denied.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Harry Lodge and Anthony Desai built a pot of around 20,000 as they went heads-up to a flop of 6♠7♦5♠.

Lodge then bet 6,000 from the hijack and Desai, in the cutoff, moved all in for 86,500. Lodge went deep into the tank, taking several minutes as he constantly rechecked his cards and looked over at Desai.

He eventually opted to fold and Desai took down the pot uncontested.

Dan O'Hair

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Thomas Mcnicholas opened to 2,200 from middle position and was three-bet to 7,500 by Julien Martini in the cutoff. Action folded back around to Mcnicholas, who called.

Mcnicholas check-called an 8,000 bet from Martini on the 10♣A♦8♦ flop and Mcnicholas checked again on the Q♣ turn.

Martini barreled for 12,000 and Mcnicholas announced he was all in, which got a quick fold from Martini to send Mcnicholas the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Naoki Matsumoto raised to 2,000 and Sven Stiel three-bet to 6,000. The shove by Matsumoto followed and Stiel called all-in.

Stiel's A♦K♥ were ahead versus K♠J♣ and that remained to be the case throughout the 9♣4♣3♦2♣K♦ runout, as Stiel doubled for 29,000 thanks to his superior kicker.

Kurtzman's Check-Raise Earns the Pot

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Tyler Foran

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With about 10,000 in the middle, the turn read A♠4♣4♠6♣ and Eric Kurtzman checked to his only opponent in the hand, Yannick Capocetti, who fired 8,200.

After a short tank, Kurtzman put in a raise to 18,700, and that was enough to earn the pot as Capocetti mucked his hand.
