Landais Makes Better Two Pair to Bust Barone

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Nicholas Barone
Nicholas Barone

Nicholas Barone from the small blind and Ricky Landais from the big blind were heads-up in a single-raised pot with about 80,000 in the middle preflop.

On the K52 flop, Barone check-called a bet of 25,000 from Landais.

The 7 turn checked through to the 9 river which saw Barone lead all in with an overbet of about 205,000, and Landais snap-called.

Nicholas Barone: 75 All in
Ricky Landais: 97

Both players had two pair, but Landais rivered nines-up for the winner, sending Barone to the rail in brutal fashion.

With the pay jump not yet in sight after the dinner break, Po Ying jammed a shorter stack from the cutoff and was called by Joel Mitchell one seat over on the button.

Po Ying: 109 All in
Joel Mitchell: A5

The Q32 flop and K turn changed nothing much, though Ying picked up a gutshot and flush draw. However, neither came on the 5 river and that spelled the end for Ying in 61st place.
