Zhang Gets a Bluff Through

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Wen Zhang from under the gun was all in on the river of a 72289 board for the last 75,100. He was up against Adam Crockett on the button, who immediately murmured, "guess you have aces?!" A longer tank followed before Crockett then opted to fold.

Zhang revealed the K3 for a bluff and Christopher Hovey joked "you didn't watch 1c?" Before he added a few seconds later, "just kidding, I have never seen him before".

Two Barrels Good for Steinwachs

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The cutoff checked the 5210 flop and then called after Steinwachs bet 1,200.

Jeff Sluzinski
Jeff Sluzinski

Jeff "Boski" Sluzinski had raised from early position and was three-bet by Bryan Campanello in the big blind. Boski called to see the 75A flop, leading to a pot 14,500 chips.

He then called the 3,500 bet of Campanello and did so too when Campanello sized up to 11,000 on the 9 turn.

Campanello slowed down on the 10 river and checked, after which Sluzinski bet 19,000 chips. Campanello flicked in a call but mucked his cards when Sluzinski showed 77 for a flopped set.

McParland Makes a Big Call

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Heads-up on a board of 5AJQ, Matt McParland bet 17,000 from early position before Courtney Farnes moved all in from the hijack.

"What's it going to be?" McParland muttered to himself as he kneeled on his chair and went deep into the tank. He had around 35,000 remaining and tanked for several minutes before calling.

Farnes showed AJ for two pair, but McParland had AQ for a better two pair. The river was the 3 and McParland doubled up.

"Only in the Main Event. I've never thought that long before," McParland said after the hand.
