Jordon Chips Up With Big Blind Special

Frank Visser

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

Paawan Bansal raised to 55,000 in early position. Roman Stoica came along from the small blind, and Terry Jordon tossed in a call in the big blind.

The trio checked the 9♦J♦7♦ flop, and Stoica checked the Q♦ turn as well. Jordon fired a bet of 35,000, Bansal called, and Stoica mucked A♥6♥.

The remaining duo then checked the 8♥ river to showdown, where Jordon tabled a flush with 8♦2♥. Bansal's Q♣J♥ disappeared into the muck as Jordon was awarded the pot.

Tobias Peters kicked things off in the cutoff with a raise to 50,000, and Gianfranco Iaculli in the big blind made the call.

On the 2♠2♣5♥ flop, Iaculli led with a bet of 60,000, and Peters called to see the 5♦ turn.

The turn and the 4♥ river were checked through by both players, leading to a showdown.

Iaculli tabled K♣J♠ for king-high, while Peters held A♣Q♥ for ace-high, enough to take down the pot.

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

Roman Stoica opened the action with a raise to 50,000 in early position with A♥10♥. Paawan Bansal three-bet K♦5♦ to 160,000 on the button, after which the action folded to Dimitrios Gkatzas in the big blind.

He looked down at J♠J♦ and reraised to 300,000. Stoica quickly got out of the way, and Bansal's suited king eventually hit the muck as well.

David Salituro

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jeffrey Sarwer raised to 40,000 in middle position and was called by Terry Jordon in the cutoff and Paawan Bansal in the big blind.

Sarwer continued for 60,000 on the K♣5♣10♦ flop and both opponents called. Sarwer then bet 110,000 on the 2♣ turn, and only Bansal called this time.

Bansal checked to Sarwer on the 8♦ river, and this time Sarwer checked back. Bansal then showed J♣9♣ for a flush.

"I only have ace-king with the ace of clubs," Sarwer said as he mucked A♣K♠.

"I should've check-raised the turn," Bansal said.

"You should've. I got away cheap. Good check back on the turn," Sarwer muttered to himself as he and Bansal joined the rest of the field on break.

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Paawan Bansal opened to 45,000 in early position and picked up both blinds as callers.

On the A♦5♦3♥ flop, the blinds checked to Bansal, who continued for 45,000, and both opponents called.

All three players checked through the 2♠ turn.

Roman Stoica checked the 8♥ river, and Terry Jordon fired a bet of 180,000. Bansal called, but Stoica mucked his hand.

At showdown, Jordon hesitated to show his cards even though he needed to act first, but Bansal waited patiently. Jordon tabled 6♠2♥ for a pair of twos and a missed gutshot, while Bansal held A♣5♣ for two pair, enough to claim the pot.
