Saxby Wins Huge in Five-Bet Pot

Level 7 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Kelly Saxby
Kelly Saxby

The action was back on table 73 and once again it was Nathan Farnaby at the center of it.

Kelly Saxby called for all her 207,000 stack after Farnby had five-bet her all-in.

Kelly Saxby: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Nathan Farnaby: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

"I had to, you four-bet me." said Farnby as both laughed about the situation they were in.

Board: {q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}

Farnby turned a flush draw and picked up a lot of additional outs but was unable to hit any of them on the river and Saxby won one of the biggest pots of the day so far.

Level 6 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Natalia Breviglieri
Natalia Breviglieri

partypoker sponsored pro Natalia Breviglieri was on the button and up against her opponent in the small blind. The board read {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} at this point and both players checked to the river.

After the dealer had turned over the {j-Spades} Breviglieri was checked to and she bet 11,000. She sat waiting patiently for her opponent to make his move but he could not come to a decision. After several minutes of thought, he folded and she quickly turned over {10-}{9-}

Lampropulos Folds to Mighall's River Jam

Level 6 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Maria Lampropulos

On a {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Hearts} board Maria Lampropulos faced a 17,000 bet from Phil Mighall out of position.

After some thought, she made the call and saw the {10-Clubs} river. She checked and Mighall sized up his chips before placing them all in the middle for around 40,000. Maria didn't need as much time as her decision on the turn and let her hand go into the muck.

Farnaby Amongst the Big Stacks

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Over on table 73, Nathan Farnaby was sat with a stack of 450,000 and three-bet to 11,500 after the player in the under the gun position had made it 4,000. The players went to the flop after a call was made and the dealer laid out {k-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Farnaby continued for 7,200 after the action was checked to him and his opponent once again called.

Farnaby slowed down on the {4-Clubs} turn and checked behind, with the river the {k-Hearts}. A check came from the player in early position and Farnaby put him to the test by going all in. He didn't have to wait long to find out the answer as his opponent instantly folded.

Render Back to Build a Better Stack and Beats Aces

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

With the flop showing {9-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{7-Spades} there were three players in the pot and one bet 15,000. It was enough to get one opponent to fold but not enough for Lauren Render who moved all in for 37,000. Her opponent made the call and saw she was behind to pocket aces.

"A six or jack" she said, and turned over {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The turn {4-Clubs} didn't help but sure enough, as she asked for the river did as the {6-Hearts} was revealed.

"There you go" she quipped and raked in the pot.

Render already has a guaranteed place in Day 2 after bagging 199,000 in last night's Day 1c, but is back again to try and build an even bigger stack.
