Agrachov Doubles Through Glantz

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Brandon Cantu opened to 11,000 and got three-bet for what looked to be the third straight hand, this time with Matt Glantz pumping it to 30,000 on the button. Small blind Dimitry Agrachov jammed for 117,500, and Cantu tank-folded. Glantz called and Cantu mucked his sevens face-up.

Glantz: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Agrachov: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Agrachov moved as if to leave but the {8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}{k-Diamonds} board favored him.

At another table, Thomas Basch went bust against the unimproved {a-}{k-} of Sam Panzica.

"I really think I'm good," Cantu said, leaning back. Finally, he called.

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Ante: 1,000

Two Doubles

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Nika Futterman got her 112,000 in preflop with {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} but was trailing the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} of Zo Karim. Futterman flopped two pair on an all-club flop and held from there.

At another table, Matt Davenport was tanking against an all-in check-raise from Sam Panzica on a {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop. Davenport had bet 17,000 and Panzica was putting him at risk for 96,000 more. Davenport tanked a few minutes and called with {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Panzica had {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a flush draw and live cards. The {4-Spades} turn and {k-Hearts} river left ace-high best.

Barbero Doubles Through Futterman

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Nacho Barbero shoved 127,000 over a middle-position open from Nika Futterman.

"I have to call this one," she said, showing {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. Barbero had {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and they were racing.

The {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs} hit the board, leaving Barbero in need of help on the final card. He got it when the {a-Clubs} fell.

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Robert Schulz opened for 14,000 in the cutoff and called the shove of small blind Jake Daniels, who had 65,000.

Daniels: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Schulz: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, sending the pot to Daniels with queens.

The next hand, there was an open for 14,000 and a call, and Schulz moved in for 65,000. The opener folded, but Vinicius Lima called to close the action.

Lima: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Schulz: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Lima flopped kings and queens and turned Schulz dead with queens full.
