Uvila Takes it on the Turn

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Three ways on a flop of AK8, Luis Vazquez checked from the small blind and Nikola Minkov checked from the big blind to Cole Uvila, who bet 250,000 from the hijack. Vazquez called and Minkov folded.

The 5 fell on the turn and Vazquez checked again — prompting a 600,000 bet from Uvila. Vazquez revealed the lone Q and slid his hand into the muck to award Uvila the pot.

Janelle Jacobson moved all in for around 650,000 from the cutoff and Kalyan Chivukula called in middle position.

Janelle Jacobson: A5 All in
Kalyan Chivukula: AQ

Chivukula had Jacobson dominated heading to the flop, which came 397. Neither player connected with the K turn or 8 river and Chivukula took the pot with his queen-kicker to send Jacobson to the rail.

Greenblatt Sends Lendel Packing

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Mykhailo Lendel shoved for 625,000 from middle position and Alex Greenblatt made the call from the small blind.

Mykhailo Lendel: AK All in
Alex Greenblatt: 66

Van Rooij Wins the Main, Pak the Side in Massive Confrontation

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Merijn van Rooij
Merijn van Rooij

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Merijn van Rooij in middle position had committed his short stack to the pot and was at risk against Edward Pak on the button and Valentin Oberhauser in the big blind. Oberhauser had both of his opponents covered with over 7,000,000 chips in the pot preflop.

Merijn van Rooij: KJ All in
Edward Pak: AA All in
Valentin Oberhauser: 1010

Pak was in a great spot to more than double but was forced to settle for the side pot after the board ran out 8A654 to give van Rooij a flush. Still, Pak profited significantly from the hand while Oberhauser ended up losing more than half of his stack. van Rooij, meanwhile, seemed elated, having found an unlikely triple up.

Zakarian Leaves Zannette Stunned

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Veerab Zakarian
Veerab Zakarian

Veerab Zakarian raised from under the gun and was called by Toby Gibson on the button and Giovanni Zanette in the big blind. The 942 flop was checked by Zanette and Zakarian bet 125,000. Gibson then min-raised to 250,000 for Zanette to call only for Zakarian to then raise it up to 700,000.

Gibson tank-folded and Zanette called after some consideration.

After the 5 turn, Zanette check-called for another 650,000 and the K river was then checked behind by Zakarian.

Zanette tabled the 53 for a flopped open-ended straight draw and turned pair of fives. Zakarian revealed KQ for a bluff on flop and turn that had gotten there, and when the cards were shown, Zanette was left stunned and flustered as he sent his own cards with force into the muck.

Lopez Shoves on Hawkins

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Adrian Lopez opened to 135,000 from middle position and Brian Hawkins three-bet to 450,000 from the small blind. It was folded back to Lopez, who paused for a minute before announcing he was all in, which was enough to put Hawkins all in for his last 950,000.

Hawkins slid his hand into the muck and said, "Nice hand," as the pot was shipped Lopez's way.

Vela Ships It on Bryant

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Jessie Bryant raised to 165,000 from the small blind, "keeping it cheap," so that Jaka Coaching student Pol Vela called from the big blind.

Vela complied, as the duo went to the K93 flop. Bryant continued for 150,000 and then called when Vela made it 380,000.

The 3 turn checked through to the J river, where Bryant bet 200,000. Vela moved all in for 2,025,000 and folded out Bryant.

Portaleoni Takes it with a Bet

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Ren Lin opened to 125,000 from early position and was called by Rodrigo Garrido Portaleoni on the button.

Lin continued for 100,000 on the A58 flop but was unable to shake off Portaleoni.

The 3 turn saw Lin slow dow, checking to Portaleonin, who took the opportunity to bet 125,000. That was enough to convince Lin to give up on the hand as Portaleoni added a few chips to his stack late in the night.
