![]()
![]()

for the boat to scoop the pot.
Early chip leader Yen Han Chen joined one other limper in a pot and the big blind checked his option.
The flop fell ![]()

A rather small pot was brewing until Damian Gonzales Cid bet 600 on the turn of a ![]()
![]()
![]()
board.
That's when Team PokerStars Pro Vivian Im made it 1,000 more. Cid called, then checked the
river. Im fired 2,500 at it this time and after a minute or two in the tank, Cid threw out a call.
Im turned over ![]()
having flopped a set that was still good after the river.
Martin Gonzalez made it 700 from late position only to have Thanh Ha Duong bump it up to 1,150 from the small blind.
Gonzalez made the call and they went heads-up to the ![]()
![]()
flop. Duong checked, but when Gonzalex led for 2,000, he check-raised, making it 5,500. Gonzalez called, but missed the memo, because when Duong checked again on the
turn, he led out again for 3,500.
Duong check-raised all in this time, for 12,500 more and Gonzalez mucked.
