Charlton on the Charge

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The action kicked off with a raise from the under-the-gun player to 2,000. The player in the cutoff called, and Christophe Panetti called from the small blind. Daniel Charlton then elected to three-bet to 9,000, which shook out the initial raiser, but both of the callers called again.

The dealer then spread a 2♥8♠A♠ flop, and Charlton continued for 6,000. The player in the cutoff folded, but Panetti called again.

Both players checked on the Q♣ turn as the cutoff player stood up from his seat, looking slightly unhappy.

The river then brought the K♠, and when Panetti checked for a third time, Charlton moved a tower of chips into the middle, asking Panetti to risk his remaining stack of 11,200. Panetti was unwilling to do that and returned his cards to the dealer.

In a show of kindness, Charlton flipped his cards over, revealing he had rivered a set with his K♣K♥. The player in the cutoff then said that he had folded QxQx.

Degennaro Doubles After Flop Three-Bet

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Heads-up to a flop of 10♦2♥K♦, Gerard Carbo checked from the big blind before Daniele Degennaro slid in a continuation-bet of 1,200 on the button.

Carbo raised to 3,700, which Degennaro clicked back to 8,700. Carbo called to the 3♠ turn, which he checked. Degennaro quickly moved all in for 20,700, and Carbo called after getting a count.

Daniele Degennaro: K♠10♠ All in
Gerard Carbo: J♦3♦

The J♠ river upgraded Carbo, but his two pair was still inferior to that of Degennaro, who doubled up.

Prior Gets the Triple Up

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Julio Ribeiro kicked the action off with a raise to 2,000 from early position. Seated directly to his left, Daniel Prior moved all in for 5,300. Fabien Desbrueres called from the big blind, and Ribeiro called as well.

The two active players in the hand checked the flop, turn and river as the board ran out 7♣10♥6♦3♥4♦.

All three players were required to show their hands; Prior showed A♣A♦, which was good enough for the triple up and Desbrueres flipped over Q♣9♣ and Ribeiro had A♥6♥.

Robinson Triples Off in Four-Bet Pot

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Lukas Robinson
Lukas Robinson

Lukas Robinson opened his cutoff, Gerard Carbo three-bet from the small blind, and Robinson four-bet to 14,000. Carbo called, and check-called Robinson's bets of 7,500 on the 6♦6♥2♦ flop and 15,000 on the 7♠ turn as well.

The J♦ river completed the board. Carbo checked for a third time, after which Robinson moved all in for 23,000 after about a minute of thought.

Carbo quickly called, and his A♠A♥ was the better overpair against the Q♠Q♦ of Robinson. Robinson was eliminated in the huge pot as Carbo soared up the rankings, reaching a six-figure stack.

Lococo Runs Into Aces

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Paawan Bansal raised to 2,000 from the button. Alejandro Lococo in the big blind three-bet to 6,800 and Bansal called.

Lococo continued for 4,500 on a flop of 10♦5♥6♠ and was called, then he checked the 4♥ turn. Bansal checked back.

The river card was the 4♦ and Lococo bet 12,200. Bansal raised to 31,000 with only 300 behind and Lococo asked for the count. He quickly called, but his cards immediately went into the muck when Bansal revealed A♠A♣.
