Jennifer Shahade
Jennifer Shahade

Andrei Konopelko, Jennifer Shahade, and Kyle Sorel took a flop of {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Sorel checked, Shahade bet 20,000, and both Konopelko and Sorel called.

The turn was the {9-Hearts}, both Sorel and Shahade checked, and Konopelko, who reached two final tables at the 2013 World Series of Poker Europe, fired out 55,000. Shahade moved all in for 203,000, Sorel folded, and Konopelko tank-called.

Konopelko: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Shahade: {q-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Konopelko grimaced at the sight of Shahade's hand, and the {j-Clubs} bricked off on the river. Shahade doubled to 1.05 million chips, while Konopelko fell to 147,000.

Vanessa Selbst opened to 12,000 from the cutoff, Jennifer Shahade three-bet to 28,000 on the button, and both blinds released. Selbst made the call, then checked when the dealer fanned {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}. Shahade continued for 31,000, the Team PokerStars Pro call, and the turn brought the {2-Diamonds}.

Both players checked.

The river was the {j-Diamonds}, Selbst led out for 84,000, and Shahade folded.

Bussman Bests Boeree

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Adrian Bussman led out for 16,000 on a board of {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and Team PokerStars Pro Liv Boeree made the call.

A repeat seven - the {7-Diamonds} - completed the board, and Bussman led out again. This time the wager was 36,000, and it was also too rich for Boeree, who folded.

After World Poker Tour Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic winner Dan Smith raised from early position to 13,000, Allon Allison reraised to 26,000 from middle position. Action folded back to Smith, and he called to see the flop come down {K-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Smith checked, and Allison checked behind.

The turn was the {9-Spades}, and Smith checked. Allison bet 40,000, and Smith folded.

Ladouceur Over Klodnicki

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Marc-Andre Ladouceur raised to 13,000 from under the gun plus one and found a call from Chris Klodnicki in the small blind. The flop came {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Spades} and Klodnicki check-called a continuation bet of 16,000.

The {7-Clubs} came down on fourth street and Klodnicki checked for a second time. Ladouceur moved 43,000 into the center of the table and Klodnicki called once again. The {k-Diamonds} completed the board and Klodnicki checked again. Ladouceur pushed forward a tower of 106,000 and Klodnicki went into the tank.

Almost three minutes passed while Klodnicki pondered his action. Eventually, he decided to let go of his cards and Ladouceur was pushed the pot.

Action folded to Norwegian Yngve Steen, and he opened the action with a raise to 12,000 from the button. In the small blind, Team PokerStars Pro and two-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner Vanessa Selbst called. Jennifer Shahade also called, opting to play her hand from the big blind.

On the flop, the dealer produced the {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}, and all three players checked to see the {K-Hearts} land on fourth street. After Selbst led for 19,000, Shahade thought, then made the call. Steen took some time to think as well, but he had other things in mind than just calling. Instead, Steen raised to 63,000. Selbst called, and Shahade folded.

The river completed the board with the {7-Hearts}, and Selbst checked. Steen tanked for a little bit, then began counting out blue T5,000 chips. It seemed as though he was going to bet, but then all of a sudden had a change of heart and knuckled the table for a check. Selbst showed the {A-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a pair of aces, and Steen winced as though he knew he missed a spot to possibly fire a bluff. Steen mucked his hand, and Selbst was pushed the pot.

"You're really as good as they say you are, aren't you?" commented Kyle Sorel from across the table.

"I don't know, we don't know what I would've done if he would've bet the river," responded Selbst as she was stacking her chips with a smile.

Winchar Doubles Through Boeree

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

The board read {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{5-Hearts} when we came upon Cory Winchar and Liv Boeree heads up in a hand. Winchar moved forward 36,000 and Boeree thought for about thirty seconds before flinging out a call.

The final community card was the {9-Diamonds}. After it hit the felt, Winchar announced an all in bet for 111,000. Boeree called the bet and was shown {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for a rivered set of nines by Winchar. Boeree heaved a huge sigh, slammed her hand on the table, and flipped up {7-Spades}{5-Clubs} for a losing two pair. The PokerStars Team Pro was forced to ship the chips to the next seat over and is now down to just 100,000 in chips.

Winchar, on the other hand, is sitting pretty with around 345,000 in chips.
