Jordan Drills the River to Eliminate Stubberfield

Ryan Lashmar

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Terry Jordon opened to 10,000 from middle position, Ben Stubberfield three-bet to 30,000 from the small blind, and Jordon called.

The flop came A♥8♣10♦ and Jordan called a 25,000 bet from Stubberfield.

Stubberfield continued for 58,000 on the K♥ turn, and Jordan called again.

On the Q♥ river, Stubberfield checked and Jordan shoved, covering Stubberfield, who had around 75,000 left.

Stubberfield looked pained by his decision, but after about 30 seconds he made the call, showing A♣K♣ for top two pair. Jordan had 10♥9♥ for a backdoor flush to eliminate Stubberfield in painful fashion on the soft bubble.

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Mohamad El Rais raised to 6,000 on the button and Fehim Hajdari called in the small blind. Thomas Bazin then moved all in for 62,000 in the big blind and El Rais called, while Hajdari got out of the way.

Thomas Bazin: A♥Q♦ All in
Mohamad El Rais: K♦Q♥

Bazin had El Rais dominated and was a favorite to double up, but El Rais caught top pair on the K♠J♠2♥ flop to take the lead. The turn was the blank 7♥, but the 10♣ river improved Bazin to Broadway and earned him the double.
