Paredes Felts Two

Walter Beck
Walter Beck

We just saw a big three-way all-in occur over on Table 32 involving Walter Beck, David Paredes, and Charles Furey.

With the board showing {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, it checked to Beck who bet, then Paredes raised to 1,225. Furey responded with a reraise all in for 11,525 total, then Beck reraised all in himself for 12,275. Paredes took a moment to think about the situation, then put in the necessary chips to call.

Furey: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Paredes: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Beck: {J-Spades}{8-Spades}

Top pair for both Furey and Beck (with Furey's kicker best), while Paredes had a couple of overs and the nut flush draw. The turn brought the {K-Clubs} to give Paredes the better pair, and after the {6-Spades} river he'd won the pot and felted two players.

I See Your Bet

David Hill
David Hill

Following a raise then a three-bet from the blinds, a series of overcalls saw five players still around to see a {6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} flop. It checked to Artur Kos who fired 2,500 into the pot of about 8,000, and only David Hill chose to stick around.

The turn brought the {3-Spades}, and as Kos considered what to do, Hill lifted a pair of black pipe-cleaner glasses through which to view his opponent. Kos finally checked, and Hill checked behind. Both then checked the {2-Clubs} river as well.

"Show me a winner," Hill said, still peering through his makeshift specs, and when Kos turned over {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, Hill tapped the table and mucked his hand.

Wach On Top

Daniel Wach
Daniel Wach

Daniel Wach is sitting on a stack of about 120,000 after eliminating Carlos Chadha-Villamarin.

We picked up the action on the turn of a {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs} board and healthy amount in the middle. Action was on Chadha-Villamarin, facing what looked to be a bet of 11,000 from Wach. A call from Chadha-Villamarin landed the {7-Hearts} river where Wach bet about 35,000, covering his opponent's stack.

After about 15 seconds, Chadha-Villamarin called all in for about 20,000. Wach tabled {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}, besting Chadha-Villamarin's holdings to win the pot.

Dalal-In

Moments after Daniel Wach assumed the chip lead, a huge hand took place between Suraj Dalal and Chris Klodnicki that saw Dalal surge into first position.

We arrived following the river, after an "all in" and "call" had been announced. The board showed {2-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Spades}, and Dalal was tabling his hand — {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a flopped wheel. A somewhat dismayed Klodnicki shook his head and mucked, then told his opponent "nice hand" as the 100,000-plus chip pot was pushed Dalal's way.

"As long as the board didn't pair," said Dalal, to which Scott Baumstein asked "He could have a boat but not a flush there?" Dalal didn't respond.

Cherish Can't Call

Cherish Andrews was on the button and with three calls before her, opted to raise to 1,500. Each limper called and the flop came down {A-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

It was checked around to Andrews who bet 3,500, forcing folds from the first two opponents. The third, though, re-raised all in with the bigger stack. Andrews had about 17,300 behind and after about 25 seconds sent her hand to the muck.

Chips for Chettipally

After ascending to more than 100,000 earlier in the afternoon, David Dawson has slid back to short-stacked status as we approach the dinner break, having lost some more of his chips just now to Naveen Chettipally.

Following a {J-Spades}{9-Spades}{K-Spades} flop, Dawson checked, Chettipally bet 3,000, and Dawson called. The turn was the {Q-Clubs}, and Dawson checked once more. This time Chettipally announced he was all in, and after just a few seconds Dawson called.

Dawson: {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Chettipally: {8-Spades}{5-Spades}

Chettipally had flopped a flush, while Dawson had turned a straight. But Chettipally was still at risk should another spade fall. The river then brought the {6-Clubs}, and Chettipally exhaled loudly as he took the pot.
