Top Pair Win for Valdez

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Starr Valdez
Starr Valdez

Starr Valdez opened to 800 and was called in two spots from the hijack and cutoff.

The flop landed {10-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{8-Spades} and Valdez checked to her opponent in the hijack who bet 1,225. The cutoff folded, but Valdez called as the {2-Clubs} landed on the turn.

Valdez bet out 2,800 and her opponent called, before both players checked the {4-Diamonds} on the river.

Valdez revealed her {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}, and when her opponent showed her {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, Valdez scooped the pot and moved to 26,900 in chips.

Greg Kelley Cruising

Level 6 : 150/300, 50 ante
Greg Kelley
Greg Kelley

Facing a raise to 500 and a call, Greg Kelley called in the cutoff as the button and both blinds came along also to see a {6-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Spades} flop.

The small blind led out for 2,500 and the big blind folds as the original raiser calls. Following another fold, Kelley called as the button releases his hand.

The turn lands the {5-Hearts} and both players check to Kelley who bets 6,000. The small blind moves all in for a little over 20,000 as the original raiser folds, and Kelley calls for 15,200 total.

Kelley: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Opponent: {J-Spades}{8-Spades}

With Kelley at-risk and needing to fade the {5-Spades}, the river landed the {8-Hearts}, and he doubled through to roughly 40,000 in chips.

Hayli Baez Busts

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante
Hayli Baez
Hayli Baez

Hayli Baez has just been eliminated from today's flight.

Speaking to table mate and fellow eSports Battle Royale contestant Andrew Neeme, he detailed to us that Baez held {Q-}{Q-} against an opponent's {J-}{J-}.

The flop brought two aces, but it would be the {J-} on the turn that would be the devastating blow for Baez as she was eliminated from the tournament after being unable to fade her opponent's two-outer.

Sophia White
Sophia White

Sophia "Djarii" White opened from early position to 400 and Starr Valdez called from two seats over as the small blind came along also.

The flop landed {6-}{5-}{3-} and the small blind led out for 1,200 before White moved all in for roughly 5,800. Valdez called, and the small blind mucked.

White: {A-}{A-}
Valdez: {5-}{5-}

With White in trouble against Valdez' set, the turn and river blanked out and she was eliminated as Valdez climbed back to 18,500 in chips.

Tens for Simon Deadman

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

From under the gun, Simon Deadman opened to 525 and Federico Butteroni called in the big blind.

The flop landed {4-Clubs}{A-Spades}{J-Clubs} and both players checked. The turn landed the {K-Hearts}, and again both players checked as a second king landed on the river and both players tapped the table.

Butteroni tabled his {5-Spades}{4-Hearts} for two-pair, but it would be Deadman's {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} that would see him collect the pot.
