3-Bet Time Again

After a few hands' worth of minor button-raiser-takes-it action, John Juanda min-raised his button and this time was faced with a reraise from David Vamplew to around a million. Juanda gave him a very intense stare, but it was very brief - he folded after just a few seconds, and Vamplew got another 400,000 of Juanda's chips.

Vamplew Strikes First After Dinner

David Vamplew minraised to 400,000 and John Juanda flat-called to see a {4-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {K-Clubs} flop. Juanda checked to Vamplew who fired 375,000 and it looked like Juanda was going to fold - but no! - he now virtually minraised to 800,000.

Vamplew made the call and the {5-Clubs}, a seemingly meaningless card came on the turn. Juanda now bet 1.55 million and Vamplew made the call.

Both checked the {5-Spades} board river and Juanda declared "Seven-high," showing {7-Clubs} {6-Spades} and Vamplew picked up the pot with {K-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}. The match swings back to the Scot.

Check-Raise-Fold for Juanda

David Vamplew min-raised, as he does almost every turn he gets with the button, and John Juanda called to see a {2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop. Juanda checked and Vamplew bet 340,000, around half the pot. To which Juanda responded by check-raising to 1 million.

Back to Vamplew who paused for a moment, before reraising to a little over 2 million - and an insta-fold later, Vamplew took the pot.

Vamplew Takes One Back

David Vamplew

John Juanda raised to 325,000 preflop and David Vamplew made the call.

The flop of {K-Clubs} {9-Spades} {8-Hearts} was checked by both players, before Vamplew fired out 415,000 on the {J-Spades} turn. Juanda quickly called but then folded just as fast on the {3-Clubs} river when Vamplew fired in a 1.05 million bet.

Still, this battle is simmering nicely.

Juanda in Front

John Juanda made a raise to 325,000 from the button but David Vamplew stuck in a reraise to 875,000. Juanda eyed him up for a little while before just calling.

The flop came down {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Vamplew bet out 910,000. Again, there was some suspicious eyeing from Juanda, before he called again.

The turn came down the {10-Clubs} and Vamplew stared fixedly at the board for a while. He checked. Juanda bet 1.85 million, around half the pot, and Vamplew folded.

Juanda now has a fairly convincing lead over Vamplew - roughly three to two.
