O'Neill Gains Momentum

Tim Baker

Level 3 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Mahmood Rasheed raised to 1,000 from early positon with Cosmin Croitoru calling out of the hijack before Richard O'Neill squezzed to 3,600 from the big blind. Rasheed and Croitoru both called.

All three players chose to check the 2♣7♣2♥ flop to see the 9♥ hit the turn. O'Neill put out a delayed continuation-bet of 5,000, which prompted two quick folds from his opponents.

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Mark Gough limped in from early position before Chris Murphy shoved for roughly 4,000 from the next seat. Steven Lee three-bet to around 12,000 from the hijack. After the rest of the table folded, the cards were revealed with Murphy at risk.

Chris Murphy : 10♣10♥ All in
Steven Lee : K♠K♦

Murphy was in bad shape against the kings of Lee. He found no help on the 2♦4♥7♣Q♣J♦ runout and he was out.

Murphy headed straight to the rebuy counter and reentered the event.

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

The action was picked up with the flop reading 9♥Q♥J♠. Koen Roelofsen bet 600 from under the gun and Shivam Raj called from the hijack.

When the 6♥ dropped on the turn, Roelofsen bet 1,800, which Raj called.

Roelofsen didn't slow down on the K♣ river; instead, he sized-up and bet 6,000. Raj pondered briefly before putting in the call. Roelofsen showed A♥10♠ for a rivered Broadway straight and Raj mucked.
