Pichierri Picked Off by Guerras

Patrick Cole

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Alessandro Pichierri opened to 4,000 from under the gun. Daniel Guerras was the sole caller from middle position.

The K♦3♣9♥ flop was checked by both before Pichierri led for 3,000 on the 9♣ turn. Guerras made the call. Pichierri led again on the 5♥ river for 4,000. Guerras then put Pichierri all in for around 40,000 and was snap-called.

Guerras flashed 3♥3♦ for treys-full to Pichierri before tabling. Pichierri shuffled his cards before standing up and throwing them down at the runout. The dealer then revealed his cards to be Q♠9♠ for trips.

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ren Lin had just taken his seat once again, and jammed for his 30,000 from early position and Felipe Morelli moved all in as well on the button for about 50,000.

Ren Lin: A♦10♣ All in
Felipe Morelli: K♣Q♦

Lin was ahead but started calling for a king for Morelli to take the lead. It seemed to work as the K♥7♣3♥ flop hit the felt. Lin reached over to shake his hand as he said "Nice hand. Don't be nervous."

The K♠ fell on the turn, securing the knockout and the 9♥ river was just a formality.

The action was caught as all the cards were tabled and the stacks were being verified. With approximately 40,000 in the middle and the full board reading 10♠6♥9♣2♣8♥, Frank Lagodich in the cutoff was all in and at risk for his effective stack of 52,000 against Fan Zhang, in middle position.

Frank Lagodich: 10♣10♥ All in
Fan Zhang: Q♠J♥

Lagodich's flopped set fell behind the rivered straight of Zhang, sending him to the rail as the day approached its end.

Javier Guevara: A♦A♠ All in
Stefano Terziani: K♣K♦

This classic cooler fell in favor of Guevara until the 10♠10♥K♠ flop reversed their fates. The 9♣ turn and 8♦ river saw Guevara's aces cracked, sending him to the rail.

Patrick Cole

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Aaron Olechnowicz called the minimum 1,500 in the hijack. Alexander Ivarsson raised to 5,500 from the cutoff. Chen Lin then reraised to 14,000 from the button. The blinds folded and Olechnowicz called.

Ivarsson five-bet to 35,500. After a minute or so, the clock was called on Lin. As the floor staff approached, he put in the call. Olechnowicz also called.

The flop of 8♣A♠J♥ was checked by Olechnowicz before Ivarsson bet 12,000. Lin moved all in for around 28,000. Olechnowicz moved all in and was called by Ivarsson who covered both players.

Chen Lin: K♣9♣ All in
Aaron Olechnowicz: 8♦6♦ All in
Alexander Ivarsson: A♣8♥

Ivarsson's aces-up held across the 5♥ turn and he made a full house on the A♦ river. A sense of confusion and bewilderment fell upon the table as the two busted players departed.

Luke Appleton: A♥K♠ All in
Konstantyn Holskyi: A♦Q♣
