Gale Sends Diaz Packing

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

John Gale opened to 2,500 only to have a short-stacked Gilbert Diaz three-bet all in for his last 3,600 on top. Action folded back around to Gale and he dropped out a call.

Gale: {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Diaz: {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, keeping Gale's ace-high out in front for the elimination. He now has about 142,000.

Jennifer Shahade

On a {6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop, PokerStars Mind Sports Ambassador Jennifer Shahade fired 5,600 only for Francis Foord-Brown to make it 12,000. Shahade thought for a couple of minutes before moving all in for around 60,000 and Foord-Brown called instantly.

Shahade: {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Foord-Brown: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

The {K-Spades} turn and {4-Hearts} changed nothing and Shahade was eliminated.

Spindler Straightens Haglund Out

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Benny Spindler
Benny Spindler

Olof Haglund shoved over the top of a raise from Benny Spindler and Spindler threw out the call for around 25,000. Haglund showed {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and was in good shape against Spindler’s {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. “Good call.” Anatoly Filatov chimed in teasingly. Spindler didn’t react as the flop came {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} and Filatov continued, “The flop is yours.”

The turn card {5-Spades} missed but the river card {10-Diamonds} gave Spindler his straight to eliminate Haglund.

Greenwood Jams on Lovgren

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Sofia Lovgren opened to 2,500 from middle position and found a call from Sam Greenwood. Action trickled around to the player in the big blind who came along as well. The trio took in a {4-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Spades} flop and the big blind checked back to Lovgren. She continued out for 4,000 and Greenwood tossed forward a call. The big blind folded.

Fourth street brought the {8-Diamonds} to the felt, prompting a bet of 10,500 from Lovgren. Greenwood thought for a moment before calling once again. The {A-Spades} finished off the board and Lovgren wasted little time putting 20,000 past the betting line. This bet sent Greenwood into the tank for what amounted to just over two minutes.

"All in," said Greenwood, breaking the silence.

He was all in for what looked to be 83,800 total. Pressure was suddenly put back on Lovgren as she counted down her own stack to see where she stood in relation to the raise. Ultimately, she opted to let her cards go and Greenwood took down the pot.

Gulyy Grunts

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Yury Gulyy was all in against Emil Patel with similar stack sizes. Gulyy tabled {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and Patel had {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

Gully eyed the felt warily, and with good reason. He grunted with displeasure as the flop delivered {j-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades}. A turn card {3-Clubs} and river {2-Clubs} saw him reduced to fumes. For good measure Patel opened the next pot with his newly won chips and took the antes and blinds.

Filatov Jokes, Spindler Rakes

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

PokerStars Team Online Pro Christian Favale is all patched up today and opened for a bet of 2,800. It folded round to the impish Anatoly Filatov who asked him, “You get rake back for this?” Favale shook his head no and Filatov made the call.

The player in the cut-off, perhaps sensing an opportunity, bumped it up to 9,200 and next to act in on the button was Benny Spindler. “Time.” Filatov called almost immediately. It didn’t take too long though for Spindler to put out a big bet and when everyone else mucked their cards he raked in another pot.
