Moldes Shortens Spragg

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

About 6,000 was in the pot when the action was picked up on a flop of Q♠5♣3♥.

PokerStars Ambassador Benjamin Spragg checked from middle position to Diego Moldes in the hijack who bet 1,500.

Spragg called to see the 4♦ come on the turn and checked again. Moldes now bet 2,500 and again Spragg called.

The river completed the board with the 3♣ and Spragg checked a final time.

Moldes bet 7,600, leaving himself just 500 behind and Spragg quickly folded.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Sven Stok
Sven Stok

Sven Stok opened to 800 from early position and was called by Carlos Garcia from the small blind. Nicolas Delaplace three-bet to 2,600 from the big blind. Stok responded by making it 8,500. Garcia folded ahead of Delaplace calling.

Delaplace led into the aggressor on the Q♦J♣8♠ flop, wagering 6,500. Stok thought briefly before moving all in for around 40,000. Delaplace went into the tank but committed the 25,000 more he had behind.

Nicolas Delaplace: A♣Q♥All in
Sven Stok: A♠A♦

Stok had aces and was ahead of Delaplace's top pair. The J♦ turn and 9♥ river confirmed the latter's exit and Stok took in the sizable pot.
