Chlouber Cracks Zhang's Aces

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a three-way turn of 8562, Albert Chlouber led out for 25,000 and was called by Kris Burchfield, but then Tao Zhang moved all in to cover.

Chlouber then moved in for less and Burchfield quickly got out of the way.

Albert Chlouber: 56
Tao Zhang: AA

Chlouber was ahead of Zhang's aces with his flopped two-pair but he still needed to fade an ace, deuce, or eight to win. Luckily for him, the river came the brick 4 and he was awarded the big pot while Zhang was left short.

Full House for Tenpas; Probst Exits

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a board of 3J2J, Xiao Probst was already all in and the pot was over 100,000 when Nicolas bet 20,000 after a check from Timothy Tenpas.

Tenpas then responded by check-raising all in, covering Trevino who then went deep into the tank.

After a full minute, he finally slid his cards to the dealer and the cards were on their backs.

"You so lucky!" Probst said to Tenpas, knowing he had her beat.

Xiao Probst: KK
Timothy Tenpas: AJ

Tenpas did indeed have her pocket kings beat with his trip jacks, and the river A only improved him to a full house to scoop the pot, eliminating Probst.

ABC Poker for Esposito

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Aaron McEvoy opened to 2,600 and was called by William Devitt in the cutoff and John Ross on the button, but then Andrew Esposito three-bet to 11,000. McEvoy quickly folded but Devitt and Ross made the call to see a flop of K610.

Esposito put out a continuation bet of 3,700 and was met with zero resistance as both opponents quickly tossed in their cards.
