Graeme Siow
Graeme Siow

Graeme Siow opened to 750 and Sam Greenwood three-bet to 2,600. The action folded back to Siow and he made the call to see a flop of {q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Siow opted to check and he then proceeded to call a continuation bet for 2,000.

There was no further betting action on the {3-Hearts} turn and {7-Clubs} river, and Greenwood tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}, Siow chopped with the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} to remain as one of the biggest stacks.

Greenwood Believes Bozdugan in Big Pot

Level 4 : 150/300, 300 ante

Allen Kessler, who shares the boards with Sam Greenwood and Halil Bozdugan on table 17, recalled the flop and turn action of a hand in which the two of his opponents met. It was a juicy pot as they were entering the final betting round with around 25,000 in the middle and {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} on the felt.

According to Kessler, Bozdugan had checked from the big blind on the flop, letting Greenwood fire 4,000 from hijack. Bozdugan then check-raised to 10,000 and Greenwood called. Then they checked the turn.

Bozdugan, however, cut out a bet of 18,400 on the river and Greenwood tanked for a while. He smiled at his opponent and eventually laid his hand down. Bozdugan carefully sent his cards face down towards the dealer and then dragged the pot.

Portaro Gets Huge Double Despite Airballing

Level 4 : 150/300, 300 ante
Bruno Portaro
Bruno Portaro

Sam Grafton was in the big blind, betting into a huge pot of around 10,000 with {2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades} on the table. Bruno Portaro raised to 8,000 from the button and Grafton fired back, shoving for an effective 33,050. Portaro called off.

Grafton held {4-Clubs}{3-Spades} for an open-ended straight draw, and while Portaro had only ace-high at the time, he was in great shape with {a-Spades}{4-Spades}, significantly blocking Grafton's hand.

The {9-Diamonds} and {9-Hearts} runout bricked each players' draws and Portaro found himself stacking a giant pot despite airballing.
