Ben Vinson
Ben Vinson

With the board reading {3-Spades}{a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, Robert Finch was in the big blind and bet 260,000 on the river. His opponent was Ben Vinson who had opened the action preflop from middle position. Vinson took some time to think before calling.

"Queen high" announced Finch and Vinson tabled {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} to take down the pot.

Their table, which also contained Ali Ayub, Ryan Mandara and chip-leader Daniel Morgan has now been broken.

King Runs Into Trips

Level 23 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

John Leslie raised to 90,000 and Andrew King three-bet to 245,000 from the button. Leslie called and the flop was {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

Leslie checked and King continued for 275,000. Leslie check-raised to 620,000 and after some thought King re-raised all in. Leslie snap-called.

"We've got the same ha-" said King tabling {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} but he was cutoff by his opponent showing {7-Spades}{8-Spades} for trips.

The turn {9-Hearts} and river {4-Hearts} didn't help King, and he was sent to the rail quietly muttering expletives under his breath.

Del Piero Doubles Through Chipleader Morgan

Level 23 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Enzo Del Piero raised from under the gun and Daniel Morgan called in the next position. Another player called and they went three-ways to a {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop.

It checked to Morgan who bet 125,000 and Del Piero was the only caller. The turn was the {9-Hearts} and Del Piero checked. Morgan bet 250,000 and Del Piero check-raised to 650,000. Morgan flat-called.

The river was the {a-Spades} and Del Piero moved all in for 750,000.

"Have you got it?" asked Morgan.

"It's 50/50," replied Del Piero.

After a while Morgan called. Del Piero slammed down {5-}{5-} for a set of fives and was ahead of the {a-}{k-} of Morgan.
