It's Ladies' Night

Frida Broberg on Day 3
Frida Broberg on Day 3

Vanessa Selbst raised to 21,000 under the gun, and Frida Broberg defended her big blind to go heads up. Broberg check-folded to another 21,000 on the {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}.

That's not very interesting, but what is interesting is that with 49 players left, we still have three women going strong. And they're all seated at the same table.

Lodden Cracks a Milly

Jesus Cortes raised before the flop, and he found calls from both Johnny Lodden and John Duthie, the latter coming along from the blinds. He'd end up check-folding, though.

The flop came {5-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {K-Clubs}, and Cortes continued out with 37,000. Lodden raised to 82,000, and Cortes didn't waste much time calling. The {K-Spades} came on the turn, and Lodden bet another 125,000. Cortes surrendered this time, not willing to go any further with Lodden.

The Team PokerStars Pro from Norway has squeaked over the million-chip mark now.

Pateychuk Doubles with Queens

From middle position, Andrey Pateychuk raised to an unknown amount and Pedro Piazuelo three-bet to 53,000 from the cutoff seat. Pateychuk made it 91,000 with a four-bet and then Piazuelo reraised all in. Pateychuk called and put himself at risk for 360,000 with the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. His opponent, Piazuelo, held the {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} for two overcards.

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and Pateychuk's queens held up. His full house, tens full of queens, was good enough to double up to over 700,000 in chips.

Jesus Runs Like God

Wow.

When we walked up to Table 1, there was a three-way all in going down. David Bach was showing up {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}, Johan Christopher Williamsson the {K-Clubs} {K-Spades}, and Jesus Cortes the {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}.

No sweat, Jesus. The {8-Hearts} drilled the flop, and the {8-Hearts} {7-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {6-Hearts} board gives Cortes the unlikely triple.

Tough Table!

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden

We're down to 56 players left, and we've just broken the first table of the day. Four more to go.

Johnny Lodden was one of the players on the move, and he's gotten pretty unlucky with his seat card. He's joined Table 1, and there's now a murderers' row in the last four seats, including three of the four remaining Team PokerStars Pros:

Williamsson: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}
McClung: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The flop, turn and river ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Williamsson doubled up.
