Cantu Gets Massive Double Up

Nick Becker

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action was caught on the flop of 7♦A♥10♦, in a hand between Brandon Cantu in middle position, the player in the cutoff and the player in the small blind.

With about 100,000 in the pot, the small blind checked, Cantu bet 24,000, and the cutoff called. The small blind then came over the top with a raise to 135,000 and Cantu made the call. The cutoff then moved all in, the small blind folded, and Cantu went into the tank.

Cantu counted out his chips, and with about 455,000 behind, Cantu's opponent had him covered. After some serious thought, Cantu almost put in the call and then went back into the tank, mentioning that he was considering making the biggest fold of his life.

After some more contemplating, Cantu eventually tossed in a handful of chips, signaling the call.

Brandon Cantu: A♠10♠ All in
Opponent: A♦6♦

The turn landed the K♥ and the river brought the 8♥, with Cantu dodging diamonds to secure a huge double up.

Ian O'Hara bet 50,000 out of the big blind on the 10♥6♥4♦7♠ turn and Michael Ernest called from an early position. The 8♦ river brought another bet worth 100,000 by O'Hara and GGPoker online qualifier Ernest reluctantly called to muck when he was shown the 8♠6♦ for two pair.

Jeraj Makes the Pay Jump, Kozah Gets the Chips

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On a flop of 3♣K♠9♣, there were around 80,000 chips in the middle when a player bet 30,000, Joseph Kozah made it 170,000, and Mihael Jeraj called, which got the initial better out of the way.

A 6♥ came on the turn and Kozah had already bet 13,000, which was all that Jeraj had remaining in his stack. After looking at the clock, Jeraj noticed that a pay jump was looming and went well into the tank.

"I know you're waiting for a pay jump but you're probably dead," said Kozah.

Eventually, the floor were called to initiate a countdown.

"I'm going to call with one second remaining," said Jeraj to the floor.

"Do I need to say something or is it ok?"

"I would probably say something," replied the floor.

As the clock got to one second, Jeraj made the call.

Mihael Jeraj: A♣5♣ All in
Joseph Kozah: 9♠9♥

Jeraj wasn't quite dead but the 4♦ river didn't help him, which meant he was eliminated. The good news for Jeraj is that he did make the pay jump.

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Daniel Chan opened to 24,000 from middle position and Justin Datloff three-bet to 72,000 on the button. Action folded back to Chan, who opted to four-bet to 160,000. Datloff responded by moving all in and, with little hesitation, Chan called off his stack of 535,000.

Daniel Chan: K♠K♦ All in
Justin Datloff: A♠J♣

The cowboys were best as Chan was looking to hold against Datloff's single overcard. The board ran out Q♥5♦6♥Q♦2♣ to keep the kings ahead, giving Chan the double while sending Datloff tumbling down the counts.

David Salituro

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

A player in middle position was all in for around 350,000 as Marcelo Tadeu Aziz Junior put him at risk from the big blind.

All-In Player: A♣K♥ All in
Marcelo Tadeu Aziz Junior: Q♥Q♣

The at-risk player took the lead on the A♠7♣8♣ flop with top pair, while the 2♥ turn left him one card away from a double up. The river, though, was the Q♠ and Aziz Junior spiked a two-outer for a set to win the pot and send his opponent to the rail.

"I can be all in and have you dead on the turn, and I still wouldn't celebrate until the river," tablemate Steven Warburton told Aziz Junior after the hand.
