Andreas Olympios Takes From Jon Borenstein

Level 2 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Jon Borenstein raised to 15,000 from under the gun and Andreas Olympios three-bet to 45,000 from middle position. Borenstein called.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} and Borenstein checked to Olympios who bet 50,000. Borenstein called.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} and both players checked to the river, which was the {6-Hearts}. Borenstein checked for a third time, and Olympios went into the tank before deciding to bet 130,000. Borenstein quickly called and Olympios tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Spades} for two pair, tens and sixes with an ace kicker. Borenstein mucked his hand.

Tony Tran Always Has It

Level 3 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

With 60,000 in the middle and a board reading {9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, Tony Tran led out for 63,000. Preston Cloutier sat on the other side of the table contemplating his decision and eventually made the call. The river {8-Hearts} hit the felt and this time Tran made a substantial bet of 278,000. After going into the tank, Cloutier made the call only to see Tran roll over {Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush.

Cloutier, along with the rest of the table, looked in disbelief again. One player mentioned "It's hard to believe he always has it" as it appears Tran has been on a recent heater since the first break closing in on the chip lead.

Eric Afriat Busts to a Set

Level 3 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Eric Afriat
Eric Afriat

After joining the action on the turn in a pot between Eric Afriat and David Valcourt-Dube, there was already over 400,000 in the middle. The board read {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Valcourt-Dube had a bet of 225,000 layed out awaiting the action of Afriat. Afriat made the call and the two players saw a river, which brough the {9-Clubs}.

Afriat checked and Valcourt-Dube shoved all in for his remaining 510,000, barely having Afriat covered. After some deliberation, Afriat made the call, only to see Valcourt-Dube roll over {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} sending Afriat to the rail.
