Two Barrels Good for Ji

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Ludovic Uzan opened to 5,000 from under the gun and then called after Min Ji three-bet to 16,000 from middle position.

Uzan checked following the 4♦8♦5♣ flop. Ji continued for 22,000 and received a call from Uzan.

The turn came 3♣, prompting Uzan to check once more. Ji was in no mood to slow down, instead pushing a chunky 48,000 into the middle. Uzan thought for some time before electing to release his hand to send a sizable pot over to his opponent.

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Phil Ivey opened the action with a raise to 5,000 from the cutoff. Frode Willumsen called on the button and the big blind defended.

The turn K♣ rolled off and Ivey fired out 40,000. Willumsen made the call once again.

The river A♦ hit the felt and Ivey threw out 100,000. Willumsen took a second but eventually flicked in a chip for a call. Ivey tabled 7♣6♣ for the bluff and Willumsen turned over 9♣8♥ for the winner.

Salem Sends Posner Packing

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Sean Posner in early position and Naseem Salem from under the gun had gotten their two short stacks in the middle with Salem covering Posner.

Sean Posner: A♣Q♥ All in
Naseem Salem: K♣K♦

Posner was not in great shape with his tournament life on the line. The 9♥5♥Q♣ flop did give the at risk player some hope but the 4♠ turn and 4♣ river kept the cowboys best to hand the pot and knockout to Salem.
