Bredin Booms

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Jonathan Bredin is now one of the chip leaders here on Day 2 of the APPT Queenstown Main Event after dispatching of Australia’s number one online-ranked player in Matthew Wakeman. Bredin had opened for a min-raise under the gun and Michael Chon flat called before Wakeman jammed for another 19,700 on top. Bredin happily called as Chon got out of the way.

Wakeman opened {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} but Bredin had him crushed with {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. The flop of {8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades} smacked Bredin with a set and the {a-Clubs} turn was the icing on the cake as Bredin made quad aces. The meaningless river was the {10-Hearts} as Wakeman departs to leave Bredin with a monster stack of 115,000 chips.

Zheng Doubles Through the Team Pro

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Jackson Zheng came into day as one of our short stacks, but he’s now up to a stack of 40,000 after a nice double up through Team PokerStars Pro Bryan Huang.

We’re not sure when the chips went into the middle, but Zheng caught a nice river on the board of {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} holding {a-Spades}{7-Spades} to double through Huang’s {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}.

Grigg Folds to Chon

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Cards fly into the muck from all directions of the table before Michael Chon opened to 1,60 from the hijack. Tom Grigg, on Chon's direct left, three-bet to 3,600 and it was folded back around to Chon, who made the call.

The {q-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} flop would see Chon check and Grigg bet 3,000. Chon made the call and a {8-Hearts} hit the turn. Chon again checked and Grigg opted to also check. The river was a {j-Diamonds} and this time Chon led for 9,000. Grigg studied his opponent for a little while before flicking his cards into the muck.

Multi-Way Action

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

When Michael Fadersen opened to 1,600 from early position, he would receive calls from Chris Holmes on his direct left, Wenjian Qiu in the next seat across and Tobin Ryall from the big blind. The {9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop prompted Fadersen to check and Holmes to bet 1,900. Qiu made a quick call, while Ryall and Fadersen got out of the way.

On the {k-Hearts} turn, Holmes checked and Qiu bet 3,500. Holmes made a call and a {k-Spades} completed the board on the river. This time both players checked. Qiu tabled his {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}, which would go straight into the muck when Holmes turned over {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.
