Paredes Takes Hit

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

With the board showing {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, David Paredes bet out 5,000 and his lone opponent moved all in for approximately 20,000 more. Paredes tossed out the call and turned over {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}. His opponent tapped the table twice indicating good hand as he turned over {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}. The turn was the {3-Diamonds} but the river was a miracle two outer for Paredes's opponent as it was the {K-Clubs}. "Unlucky," said another player to Paredes who is down to just under 14 big blinds after the loss.

Kataev Builds a Tower

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Dmitry Kataev started in the middle of the pack today and he is now among the biggest stacks from what we can tell. The stack is estimated at more than 400,000 but difficult to say exactly as he is building a tower of chips.

The latest hand we caught him calling an all in of a short stack for 30,000 with {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} and dominating the {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} of the opponent on the {J-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{5-Spades} board.

Fold One More Time

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Andy Spears raised to 5,200 and got two callers in the two seats over. On the {Q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop, Spears continued for 9,300 and only received one caller to check-fold the {10-Clubs} turn when his sole opponent bet 15,000. Spears has been quite active today and played many hands, there is one massive threat in David Eldridge on the nine seat though.

Boeree Extracts Value

Liv Boeree
Liv Boeree

With a board of {J-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} and slightly less than 15,000 in the pot, Liv Boeree made a bet of 8,300. Her opponent quickly called and Boeree turned over {Q-}{J-} for a pair of jacks with a queen kicker. Her opponent turned over {J-}{10-} for the same pair of jacks, but only a ten kicker. Boeree took down the pot and is now up to 120,000 for the day.

Bakker Scores

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Robbie Bakker raised and got two callers to see a nine high flop. He continued for 6,500 and got raised to 21,500 by an opponent to just flat call before the {10-Spades} turn showed up. The action was checked through and Bakker then jammed the river, when another deuce paired the board.

His opponent tanked for a good two minutes before making the call with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for top pair top kicker, but that was only second best to the {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} of Bakker.
