White Scoops, Tsydypov Exits

Kirk Brown

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 200 ante

After an open and several callers, Jake White three-bet from the big blind to 9,800 and was called by four players to create a good-sized pot.

"Well, I guess it's time," White announced as he moved all in for around 30,000. The action then folded to Zhargal Tsydypov who made the call for slightly less while the other players got out of the way.

Zhargal Tsydypov: 8♣6♥5♣3♣ All in
Jake White: A♥7♥6♦5♠

White was ahead with his ace-high and flush draw, but Tsydypov did have a better straight draw with his small wrap.

To the amusement of the table, the turn 3♥ gave both players the straight, but it also gave White the flush to leave Tsydypov drawing stone dead.

Teh river was the meaningless 2♠ and the monster pot was shipped to White while Tsydypov hit the rail.

Ravee Sundara: 9♣7♠6♦5♠ All in

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 1,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of Q♥J♦3♠, Phu Vo got it all in against He Feng, who covered.

Phu Vo: A♣Q♣Q♠2♦ All in
He Feng: 8♠8♥3♦3♣

Vo was sitting pretty in this set-over-set situation, but the deck was on Feng's side as the turn was the miracle one-outer 3♥ to give him quads. The table let out a collective groan as the river 5♥ sent out Vo in brutal fashion while Feng chipped up.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 2,000 ante

Carl Masters opened to 20,000 and was called by Jonathan Gaviao on the button before Joshua Barney three-bet to 87,000 in the small blind.

The action folded back to Masters who made the call and then it was Gaviao.

"I don't know what to do," He laughed and shook his head after over a minute of head-scratching. He eventually decided to make the call and the trio went to the flop of A♦7♠K♦.

Barney then set out a stack of 100,000 to cover both players and Masters made the call while Gaviao quickly mucked.

Carl Masters: A♥K♠8♠6♥ All in
Joshua Barney: A♣A♠6♣4♦

Masters had ace-king for top two pair, but Barney had him crushed with aces for top set. The turn 9♠ did give Masters some life with a flush draw, but the river was the brick 4♥ to send him to the exit while Barney gathered the pot.

Left short, Gaviao exited soon after to Barney who chipped up to 631,000.
