Walden Spikes the River to Bust One

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Owen Dodd limped in from the cutoff before the button raised to 1,500. Jamie Walden, in the small blind, then three-bet to 4,000 and both Dodd and the button called.

The flop came J102 and action checked to the button who bet 7,000. Walden then raised to 17,000 and Dodd got out of the way. Walden's remaining opponent, though, tanked for a minute before reraising to 29,000, leaving a green 500 chip behind.

Walden then tanked for a minute before moving all in, and his opponent tossed in his last chip.

All-In Player: AJ
Jamie Walden: KQ

Walden had a straight draw against his opponent's top pair but failed to connect with the 2 turn. The river was the Q and Walden made top pair to send his opponent crashing out of the tournament.

"That's what the kids do nowadays. Limp, raise, three-bet. He was excited to look at king-queen," a tablemate joked with Walden after the hand.

Laidlaw Catches Jordon on a Big Bluff

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

With around 12,000 in the pot, Daniel Laidlaw bet 6,500 from the cutoff on a board of K749 and Terry Jordon called in early position.

The river came the 7 and Jordon put Laidlaw all in for his last 17,800. Laidlaw gave it some thought before calling.

"There you go. Straight to the fish," Jordon joked as he showed 53 for a missed straight draw. Laidlaw turned over QQ and doubled up.

Villegas Picks One Off

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Around 20,000 was already in the pot as Jay Villegas and an opponent went to the river on a completed board of 928J7.

Villegas' opponent, on the button, then moved all in for 18,000. Villegas tanked for a moment in the small blind before calling.

"You win," the all-in player said, instantly tossing his cards into the middle of the table. Villegas opened up AJ for a pair of jacks as he took the pot and sent his opponent to the rail.

Jordon Finally Folds a Hand, Eminoglu Surprised to Win

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

A player in early position bet 4,400 on a board of 4329 and Yucel Eminoglu called in middle position, as did Terry Jordon on the button.

The river came the 7 and action checked to Eminoglu who bet 11,000. Jordon gave up his hand, but the early-position player tanked for a moment before calling.

"Do you have a straight," Eminoglu asked his opponent as he showed 76. To his great surprise, his opponent mucked and Eminoglu took the pot with his pair of sevens.

"What? I make a value bet on the river. I'm a good player," Eminoglu joked after the hand.

Jordon Multitabling, Still Winning

Level 3 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Terry Jordon took a break from managing his massive stack to tend to his other stack in the high roller event. He returned after nearly an entire level to find he had been moved and had to ask the tournament director where his new seat was.

As soon as he sat down, he went to the turn on a board of 510QJ as he and his opponent checked to the 9 river.

Jordon then pushed forward a bet of 10,000 and his opponent quickly called. Jordon showed J2 for the rivered flush, while his opponent had KJ before mucking.

Zheng Takes Down Two

Level 3 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Three-handed on a flop of 878, Vivian Saliba bet 400 from the hijack and Sheng Zheng called in the cutoff, as did a player in the big blind.

The turn came the 3 and Saliba bet another 1,000, Zheng then raised to 3,000 and the big blind got out of the way. Saliba also folded as Zheng took the pot.

The next hand, Zheng raised to 500 before Majid Iqbal three-bet to 2,200 in the cutoff. Sheng called as the flop came J93.

Iqbal continued for 2,500 and Zheng called. Both players checked the 10 turn.

The 2 river was also checked through and Zheng showed KQ for the turned straight as Iqbal angrily flung his cards into the muck.

Leo Worthington-Leese and WSOP finalist Dean Hutchison are also seated at this table.
