Strang and Tedeschi Tangle Once More

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Paul-Francois Tedeschi and Errolyn Strang are among the bigger stacks on their table and were involved in several heads-up pots throughout the last few hours. They tangled once more with Strang in the small blind and Tedeschi on the button, and Strang check-called a bet of 3,000 on the {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop. She then bet the {8-Clubs} turn for 5,000 and Tedeschi folded.

Standing Up Helps Meritan; Hurts May

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Luc Meritan was all in and at risk with {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} against the {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} of Heidi May. The flop came {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and Meritan was up on his feet and preparing to head to the exit.

The turn was the {7-Spades} but the river {j-Clubs} saved him as he hit his two-outer and doubled to around 100,000 with an hour left in the level.

Eights Are Running Hot

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante
Dylan Sendeckyj
Dylan Sendeckyj

With more than 11,000 in the pot and the flop showing {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, Antonio Tavella called a bet of 11,000 and then faced a second barrel worth 16,000 on the {3-Diamonds} turn. Tavella moved all in for another 25,200 on top and his opponent immediately sighed.

Eventually, the all in call followed and Tavella turned over {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}. His opponent was disgusted and gasped "fuck" while revealing {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}. The {J-Diamonds} river bricked and Tavella raked in a big pot.

Dylan Sendeckyj also managed to crack pocket aces, and flopped a set with {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}, then turned a full house on the {J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{J-Spades}{5-Clubs} to secure a vital double up in the final level of the night.

Quads for Zhou Boosts Him Further

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

On a {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop Quan Zhou checked to another player who bet 1,500. He got one call from a third player before Zhou check-raised to 5,500.

The first player called and the other folded.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} and both players checked. The river was the {5-Hearts}. Zhou bet enough to put his opponent all in.

"It's sick if you have a five," said his opponent. "I call." He turned over {q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and committed the chips to the pot.

Zhou turned over {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

"That is sick," replied his opponent who was eliminated.

Benny Glaser
