Rascar Gets Kebe to Fold the Best Hand

Kai Cocklin

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jimmy Kebe opened from early position to 60,000 with 9♠9♦ and Yohan Rascar three-bet the small blind to 250,000 with A♣Q♦. When it got back to Kebe, he called.

The flop came down 3♠6♥5♠ and Rascar continued with 325,000, which Kebe called with his pair of nines to see the J♥ fall on the turn. Rascar then reached for chips and bet a hefty 1,000,000, which left Kebe with a decision for almost half of his remaining 2,200,000.

Eventually, Kebe did lay down the best hand, and Rascar added even more chips to his mountain.

Heads-up on a flop of A♥8♦10♠, Juan Carlos Vecino bet 95,000 from the button and Anton Suarez called in the big blind.

Vecino bet another 235,000 on the K♣ turn and Suarez again called. Both players then checked the Q♣ river.

Suarez showed K♠10♦ for two pair and Vecino slammed his cards in the muck in frustration.

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Joao Webber raised Q♦10♦ from the hijack to 60,000 and Jimmy Kebe called with A♦9♦ on the button. Hiroki Karatsu was in the small blind with 8♦8♣ and also called.

Kebe flopped trips on the A♣7♦A♠ flop, but it was Webber who bet 40,000 when the action got to him. Kebe called, and Karatsu also called.

The 7♥ turn double-paired the board and all three checked to the J♦ river. When it got to Kebe, he put out a small bet of 90,000 with his full house. Karatsu folded, and Webber went into the tank with his queen-high.

One time bank later, Webber called and then mucked when he saw Kebe's full house.

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Cesar Garcia raised to 60,000 under the gun, El Mostafa Bel Khayate moved all in for 245,000 in the small blind, and Garcia called.

El Mostafa Bel Khayate: A♦Q♦ All in
Cesar Garcia: 4♦4♣

The Q♣ fell right in the window, followed by 7♠K♥. The Q♠ turn improved Bel Khayate to trips, while the 7♣ river gave him a full house and secured his double up.

"Thank you, my friend. It's only my money," Bel Khayate told Garcia with a smile.

Lars Tungel raised to 60,000 in the cutoff, Thales Morelli three-bet to 150,000 on the button, and Tungel called.

The flop came 10♣6♥3♦ and Morelli continued for 95,000. Tungel then moved all in and Morelli, with around 920,000 remaining, snap-folded.

Umberto Zaffagnini opened from the button but was raised to 205,000 by Hugo Gotuzzo in the small blind.

Leo Worthington-Leese in the big blind announced "all in" for 1,750,000. Zaffagnini didn't seem happy, but folded what he later said was ace-queen.

Gotuzzo pushed his time bank extensions forward and went into the tank, but ultimately folded.

Kai Cocklin

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Joao Webber raised from the button to 60,000 and Jimmy Kebe called in the big blind.

They went to a flop of 7♣K♥6♦, where Kebe checked and Webber fired 100,000. Kebe called and then checked the K♣ turn, and Webber checked back.

A Q♣ hit the river and Kebe decided to lead for 120,000, which Webber called.

Kebe then showed pocket aces with A♥A♣, and Webber's pair of queens with Q♠5♠ was no good.

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.

In the 34th episode, Connor talks with WSOP free-to-play app ambassador Sam Abernathy about growing up in Georgia, studying design, the similarities between gymnastics and poker, finishing third in the 2016 Aussie Millions Main Event, and a notorious slow roll she suffered in that event.

Abernathy also talks about first getting into poker through the WSOP Play app before becoming an ambassador years later, motherhood and being married to fellow poker player Lautaro Guerra, who finished 15th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $450,000.
