Ace Enough For Gomez

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Dan O'Hair

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Matt Affleck and Carlos Gomez were heads-up on a flop of A♠10♥6♥ with several thousand already in the middle.

Affleck was in the small blind and check-called a 4,000 bet from Gomez, who was in the cutoff.

Both players then checked down on the Q♥ turn and 2♣ river and Gomez tabled A♣3♦ for a pair of aces.

Affleck couldn't beat it and mucked — awarding the pot to Gomez.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action was joined at the river with the board reading 7♣8♣A♠8♠10♣. Simon Higgins bet 16,700 into a pot of close to 30,000 from under the gun.

Jerome Zerbib had the decision on him from early position. He asked the dealer to spread the pot as he thought it out and assessed the situation. Eventually he spiked in the call.

Higgins tabled the K♠9♠ for nothing and Zerbib flipped over his winning A♥K♦ with some force as he was pumped up to have made the right call.

Frank Visser

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Arriving on a flop of 6♠7♣4♦, Seun Oluwole checked to Oleksii Ievchenko. The latter then pushed his final 18,700 chips into the pot of roughly 60,000 chips.

Oluwole thought about it for a bit before making the call to put Ievchenko at risk.

Oleksii Ievchenko: Q♠Q♥ All in
Seun Oluwole: A♣K♥

"That is fine," Oluwole stated, but he did not pair his hole cards on the 8♥7♥ runout and was left with just under half of a starting stack.
