A No Trouble Double for Easley

Seneca Easely
Seneca Easely

With around 40,000 in the pot in a blind-versus-blind contest, the small blind moved all in on a board reading {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. Seneca Easley was in the big blind and snap-called off his stack of 40,500, rolling over the but {10-Spades}{4-Spades}.

The small blind sheepishly revealed {A-Hearts}{8-Spades} and was drawing dead. After the meaningless {Q-Hearts} was put out on the river, Easley was pushed the pot, making a double look easy!

Sarkeshik's Kings Send Lebreton to the Rail

Sebastien Lebreton moved all in from middle position for his last 23,500 and received a call from Ali Sarkeshik in the small blind.

Showdown
Sarkeshik: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Lebreton: {A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Lebreton was dominated and in desperate need of an ace, but he would find no salvation as the board ran out a dry {5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. Sarkeshik was pushed the pot, chipping up to 131K, while Lebreton made his way to the payout desk.

Meshcheriakov Over 440K

We're not quite sure how it happened, but we just discovered Vitaly Meshcheriakov sitting on a massive stack of 448,000! We're guessing it had something to do with Lisa Hamilton as her once healthy stack was reduced to 57,500.

Meanwhile, we also checked in on Justin Zaki over at Table 440. He is holding strong with 188,000.

Van Der Fluit vs. Jaka

Action folded around to recent bracelet-winner Vincent Van Der Fluit on the button and he brought it in with a raise to 6,000. Faraz Jaka defended from the big blind and it was heads-up action to the {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop.

From there, Jaka check-called a bet of 7,500 before leading out for 18,000 on the {7-Diamonds} turn. Van Der Fluit made the call and then moved all in for 59,500 after Jaka checked the {J-Diamonds} river. The latter tanked for a bit and then released his hand.

Pocket Rockets for Teves

With around 25,000 in the pot and a board reading {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, Marc Etienne Blais checked to Ryan Teves, who fired out a bet of 10,500. Blais snap-called and then checked the {2-Clubs} river. Teves checked behind and showed {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}, which prompted Blais to muck.

"I didn't know what you were up to," Teves admitted. "You called so fast."
