Keating Falls Near the End of the Night

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Alex Keating
Alex Keating

Alex Keating moved all in for his last 200,000 from early position as action folded around to Diego Montone who called in the small blind.

Alex Keating: Q9
Diego Montone: 1010

Both players hit two pair on the K9K flop, but Montone was still ahead with his pocket pair and Keating improved no further on the J turn or 7 river. He went around the table giving his tablemates a fist bump before making his exit with just a few minutes left in the night.

Ponakovs Doubles Though Hansen

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Sindre Hansen opened to 40,000 on the button and Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 200,000 from the big blind, leaving himself just 35,000 behind. Hansen just called.

Ponakovs checked to Hansen on the J87 flop and he bet enough to put Ponakovs all in. Ponakovs quickly called and hands were turned face up.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: A8
Sindre Hansen: A6

Ponakovs had way the best of it with his pair of eights. The 4 turn gave Hansen a sweat with a gutshot straight draw, but the 7 river bricked out and Ponakovs doubled his stack.

Picone Slips Further; Spencer Wins a Small One

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Igor Picone opened the action with a raise to 30,000 with the K10 and Atanas Pavlov three-bet to 90,000 one seat over in the hijack with the A10. The 852 flop was checked by Picone and Pavlov bet 75,000 to take it down right there.

Next to raise was David Kaufmann with the J5 on the button and he found a customer in Lewis Spencer in the big blind (A5). Spencer check-called 15,000 on the Q105 flop, the 8 turn and 6 river brought no action for the Brit to win a small pot.

Cooler Ends In Unlikely Chop

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The pot had already swelled to 225,000 with two players looking at a flop of 52A.

Ami Barer, who was under the gun, check-called a bet of 50,000 from Eliot Hudon, in the cutoff.

The 4 turn checked through to the 3 on the river, putting a straight on the board. Barer moved all in, putting Hudon to the test for his last 500,000. Hudon thought for some time, burning through time banks before making the call.

Eliot Hudon: KK
Ami Barer: QQ

Both players' premium pocket pairs were counterfeited by the board and the pot was chopped.

Lipp Steals One With Queen-High

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Matthias Lipp made it 35,000 to go with the Q8 in an early position, Igor Picone called in the cutoff with 55 and David Kaufmann defended the 87 from the big blind. All three players checked the KJ6 flop to head to the 4 turn.

Once more they knuckled it down to the J river and this time, the preflop aggressor finally bet 30,000. Picone checked his cards again and folded, as did Kaufmann.

Jorge Ufano

Terry Vlastos opened to 30,000 from middle position and was called by Jorge Ufano in the small blind.

Ufano checked to Vlastos on the 21010 flop and he continued for 40,000. Ufano then check-raised to 125,000. Undeterred, Vlastos announced he was all in and Ufano snap-called to put himself at risk for 630,000 total.

Jorge Ufano: A10
Terry Vlastos: J3

Ufano had the best of it with trips, and the 2 turn improved him to a full house to leave Vlastos drawing dead.

An irrelevant A improved Vlastos to a second-best flush and Ufano doubled up.
