Criado Wins Battle of the Big Stacks

Ryan Lashmar

Level 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Carlo Belli opened to 16,000 from the hijack and Jose Criado three-bet to 43,000 from the cutoff. Belli made the call.

The flop came A♥10♦9♠ and Belli check-called a 30,000 continuation bet from Criado.

Criado fired a second barrel for 85,000 when checked to on the 3♠ turn and this time it was enough to force a fold from his opponent.

Lin Scores a Knockout on Soft Bubble

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of A♣J♥9♦A♠ and about 125,000 already in the middle, a player in the big blind checked and Daguang Lin bet 200,000, enough to put the player in the big blind, who had a bit less, at risk. After taking a minute to weigh his options the big blind made the call.

Big blind: J♠8♦ All in
Daguang Lin: A♦3♥

Lin had his opponent drawing dead and took the pot after the incosequential 2♠ river while his opponent was eliminated just a few spots shy of making the money.

Criado Wins Massive Bubble Flip

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jose Criado opened from early position, a player from middle position called and a player in the cutoff three-bet to 75,000. Criado four-bet shoved, covering both players. The middle position player got out of the way while the cutoff, who had about 300,000 behind, went deep into the tank.

Multiple time extensions were used before the cutoff flicked in the call to put himself at risk with a colossal pot on the line.

Cutoff: A♥K♦ All in
Jose Criado: Q♦Q♠

It was a classic preflop race that Criado got the best of on the J♦8♠9♠ flop. His overpair held up when the rest of the board ran out 5♥7♠ and he took down a gargantuan pot while his opponent was sent to the rail three spots shy of making the money.
