Larsen Scores the Knockout

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante
Ronald Larsen
Ronald Larsen

Steve Lengyel bet 2,200 into three opponents from the big blind, on a {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop. Ronald Larsen called from under the gun, the hijack folded, and Tyler Patterson made the call from the cutoff.

Lengyel went all in for his last 21,000 on the {10-Hearts} turn, and Larsen made the call.

Steve Lengyel: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Ronald Larsen: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

The turn brought Lengyel aces up, but was actually a disastrous result as it also gave Larsen the nut flush. No help came for Lengyel on the {7-Diamonds} river, and Larsen chipped up to 68,000.

Keith Bowman
Keith Bowman

Keith Bowman took down two pots, both in heads-up hands against Frank Azevedo.

On the first hand, Azevedo bet 1,200 on the button on a flop of {10-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}. A player in the small blind called, and Bowman raised to 2,500. Azevedo called and the small blind folded.

The turn came the {4-Spades}, Bowman bet 3,000 and Azevedo called. Bowman kept up the aggression on the {7-Clubs}, putting out a bet for 7,000 and getting the fold.

Two hands later, Azevedo bet 3,500 from the hijack on the river, with the board showing {10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Bowman made the call from the button, showing {4-Hearts}{3-Spades} against Azevedo's attempted bluff with {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

While the Ante Up World Championship $1,650 Main Event is the premier tournament on the schedule, it’s far from the only one. In fact, the tour has been at Thunder Valley since early July hosting a slew of side events.

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team wasn’t on hand to capture the action from those events, but we still wanted to offer fans a brief look at all those who’ve captured titles during the Ante Up World Championship.

For example, Event #22: $160 H.O.R.S.E. drew 65 runners and produced a $8,450 prize pool. The tournament came to an end when Ante Up Magazine co-publisher Scott Long and Samedy Kuoch struck a heads-up deal that saw them each take home $2,226. Ultimately Long was named the champ.

Chasengou Outkicks Patterson

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

With 1,200 already in the pot, Tyler Patterson checked on the small blind on a {5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop. Jackson Chasengou bet 700, and got calls from a middle position player, as well as Patterson.

The turn brought the {10-Spades}, Patterson led out for 1,600, Chasengou raised to 3,500, and the middle position player folded. Patterson made the call.

The river was the {8-Hearts}, and the action checked through. Both players owned trip tens, but Chasengou turned over {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, besting Patterson's {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} with the better kicker.
