Morris Claws Some Back From Mandara

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Steven Morris
Steven Morris

Having just doubled-up Ryan Mandara, Steven Morris is doing his best to get some of those chips back.

On a five-handed table, Mandara raised from under the gun position, and Morris seated to his left called. On the {j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, Morris called a 300,000 bet from Mandara.

On the turn {5-Hearts}, Mandara bet again, this time for 675,000 and Morris again called.

The {3-Clubs} fell on the river, and both players checked to showdown.

Ryan Mandara: {k-}{q-}
Steven Morris: {q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

It was two pair for Morris, and he regained some of the chips he had lost to the same opponent just a couple of hands ago.

Steven Morris: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{j-Spades} and Mandara doubled to just over 6m.

Raniszewski Bluffs Off a Portion of his Stack

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

On a {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} board James Williams bet 600,000 into a pot of around 1.3m. Tomasz Raniszewski then raised in position to 1.65m. Williams thought before calling. Raniszewski mucked his cards and Williams flashed the {a-Hearts} before raking in his chips.

Battle of the Short Stacks as Dhiri Defeats Packer

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Patrice Brandt raised from the button, and Leslie Packer moved all in for 1,755,000. Fellow short stack Raj Dhiri called for his last 1,540,000 in the big blind, and Brandt exited the proceedings.

Leslie Packer: {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Raj Dhiri: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}

Board: {7-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Dhiri doubled to over 3,000,000, with two pair and Packer was left with just 35,000 in chips. He was eliminated a few hands later when he ran pocket-fives into the king-nine of Steven Morris. A nine on the flop and a nine of the turn sealed Packer's inevitable fate.

O'Connor Runs Kings into Aces to Exit

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Jamie O'Connor
Jamie O'Connor

The chips were already being passed to Chris Brice as Jamie O'Connor stood from his seat. Brice was happy to explain the hand.

Brice opened the action from middle-position and Jamie O'Connor three-bet from the button. Brice put O'Connor to the test by four-betting all in. O'Connor wasn't to be phased and he made the call.

Chris Brice: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Jamie O'Connor: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Board: {7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Brice's pocket-rockets held and O'Connor was consoled by his tablemates as they discussed the situation.

"I haven't had a hand in about five hours" O'Connor joked.

A 20th-place-finish and a £7,500 pay day for the man who came into the day fourth in chips.
