Greenwood and Cortes Chop it Up

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Cortes opened and called a shove from Sam Greenwood for around ten big blinds.

Jesus Cortes: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Sam Greenwood: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and Greenwood tutted, realizing Cortes also had a diamond. The turn was the {q-Hearts}.

"Chop it up," said Greenwood, and the river {2-Hearts} meant that the two did indeed chop it up.

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Sam Greenwood

Seth Davies opened to 46,000 from the hijack and Mikita Badziakouski three-bet to 140,000 on the button. Sam Greenwood pushed all in for 131,000 in the small blind and Davies called to make it a three-way pot.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts} and both Davies and Badziakouski checked to the {a-Diamonds} on the turn. Two more checks saw the {9-Hearts} fall on the river and the two players opted to check it down. Davies collected the side pot with {k-Spades}{q-Spades} against Badziakouski's {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, but it was Greenwood who would take the main pot with {a-Spades}{10-Spades}.

Cortes Sends Davies to the Rail

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Seth Davies
Seth Davies

After a series of preflop raises, Seth Davies in the small blind and Jesus Cortes in the big blind got all of their chips in the middle preflop. Davies was the player at risk for around 540,000 and would need some help.

Jesus Cortes: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Seth Davies: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Not only did Cortes hold the higher pocket pair, but he also had both of Davies' suits covered. The board ran out {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Davies was eliminated from the competition.

Greenwood vs. Greenwood

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Moments after defending his big blind only to check-fold flop, Sam Greenwood called out of the small blind after brother Luc Greenwood opened from middle position.

The flop came {q-Spades}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Sam checked to Luc who bet 60,000. Sam called and the turn was the {a-Spades}. This time Sam check-folded to 85,000 and Luc took down the pot.

It's been a good period for Luc Greenwood, who is closing in on two million, while the average is exactly one million.

Eibinger Loses a Race

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress opened to 40,000 in middle position and Matthias Eibinger three-bet shoved for 200,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Dvoress quickly called to put Eibinger at risk.

Daniel Dvoress: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Matthias Eibinger: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

It was a race and Eibinger needed to connect with the board in order to stay alive. The dealer spread the {7-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} across the felt and Eibinger whiffed, being forced to the rail.

Charlie Carrel: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
