Dwan Forces Out Two

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

There was a three-way pot going on as the board read Q873. The pot had around 43,000 in it. Tom Dwan was in middle position and took some time before acting. Eventually he bet 32,000. Bradley Mercer called in the big blind and an early position player with the shortest stack came along as well with the call to build the pot even more.

The river came the 9. Dwan was again deliberate with his action as he stood up to assess both stacks of his opponents, with the early position player having about 42,000 effective. After over a minute, Dwan fired 65,000.

Mercer quickly folded and so did the early position player and Dwan took down the chunky pot.
--
Shortly afterwards, Dwan eliminated the same early position player when he shoved for about 62,000 with AK and Dwan's QxQx held up in the run out.

Raber Doubles Through Micillo

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

Domenico Micillo checked from the small blind to Jason Raber in middle positon. Raber then jammed all in on the 91084 board for a bet of 57,500, slightly less than the pot.

Micillo tried to get some information out of his opponent before putting in a call with the covering stack.

Jason Raber: QJ All in
Domenico Micillo: 54

Raber just needed to fade a club and he did just so when the 4 river gave Micillo a no-good three of a kind.

Howard Makes the Right Call

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

Nicholas Howard was heads-up from the big blind against the player on the button on a flop of K72.

Howard proceeded to check-call his opponent down. First for 4,000 on flop, then for 21,500 on the 3 turn, and finally for 24,000 after the J completed the board.

The button could only show 54 for a busted straight draw and Howard turned over 107 for a pair of sevens to claim the pot.

P(e)eling His Opponents

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

Tyler Rueger opened the action under the gun with a raise to 6,000. Zephyr Peling, in the small blind, three-bet to 21,500, which Rueger called.

On the 3510 flop, Peling led with a bet of 14,000, and Rueger called.

The 10 on the turn prompted Peling to go all in, covering his opponent. Rueger agonized over his tournament life at risk but ultimately made the call.

Tyler Rueger: 88All in
Zephyr Peling: AK

Rueger was ahead, but his hopes were dashed when the dealer revealed the K on the river, sending him to the rail.

Zhou Cracks Mcmahon's Aces

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

There were around 75,000 chips in the pot on a board of 46J9 when Joseph Mcmahon checked to Quan Zhou, who fired a bet of 19,500. Mcmahon called.

On the flush-completing 3 river, Mcmahon checked again and was then faced a bigger bet of 100,000 from Zhou. Mcmahon thought for some time before he dropped in the call.

Zhou tabled JJ, and Mcmahon gave up the pot. As Zhou was raking in the chips, Mcmahon showed AA.

On the same table, Loni Hui is up to around 850,000 chips.
