Duce Dispatches One With Aces

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Maria Lampropulos opened to 2,300 from early position and a player in the hijack flatted before Zachary Duce made it 7,500 on the button. Lampropulos tank-folded but the other player moved all in for less than 20,000. Duce had it easy with {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} and his hand stayed the best against {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} as the board came out {6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}.

Graham Cowan: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Max Deveson: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Quoss Takes Down a Sick Four-Bet Pot

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Fabian Quoss raised under the gun and Joshua Duce three-bet to 6,500 in the cutoff. Quoss fired back, four-betting to 18,000 and his opponent called.

The flop came down {j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{a-Spades} and Quoss opted for a small bet of 8,000. He received a call.

The {10-Spades} turn was checked and the {j-Diamonds} completed the board. Quoss let Duce fire 16,000 and then he check-shoved for around 57,000, covering his opponent's stack by a few big blinds. Duce thought for some time to evaluate his situation and then folded.

Quoss Gets Value on River

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Corey Kempson raised to 2,200 in middle position and Yunye Lu flatted in the cutoff. Fabian Quoss squeezed to 9,000 from the button and both Kempson and Lu called.

"King, seven, seven," Kempson instructed the dealer. The action slowed down as they checked down the {7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{3-Spades} board, and Quoss eventually fired 12,000 on the river. Kempson called and Lu folded.

"Same hand, same hand," Kempson hoped for, but Quoss turned up {a-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Kempson flipped over his inferior {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.
