McCorkell Extracts Three Streets of Value

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Craig McCorkell raised to 125,000 from the button and his only customer was Andrew Seden in the small blind.

Seden check-called a 125,000 bet on the {J-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop and then a 265,000 bet on the {5-Hearts} turn. When checked to again on the {K-Diamonds} river, McCorkell bet 365,000 and Seden called.

McCorkell flipped over {9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for trip fours, a hand that Seden couldn't beat and his cards hit the muck.

Iaron Lightbourne opened to 125,000 from under the gun, Russell Betts moved all-in from the cutoff and Andrew Seden asked for a count from the big blind. The dealer informed him that the bet was 790,000, and he called; Lightbourne folded.

Betts: {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Seden: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Seden's eights remained best until the river of the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{J-Hearts} board, the jack improving Betts and doubling him up.

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Chi Zhang and Iaron Lightbourne
Chi Zhang and Iaron Lightbourne

Chi Zhang's run in the WPT UK Main Event is over, busting at the hands of Fraser Bellamy.

Zhang moved all-in for around 500,000 chips with {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} under the gun and Bellamy called out of the small blind with {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The {3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} board failed to melt Bellamy's snowmen and Zhang became the sixth place finisher, a great achievement and one worth £40,000.
