David Peters opened to 18,000 from middle position. Igor Kurganov, on the button, called. Byron Kaverman, in the big blind, three-bet to 83,000. Peters called. Kurganov folded.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and was checked around to the {4-Spades} turn. Again, both players check.

The {9-Diamonds} filled up the river. Kaverman checked. Peters moved all in for around 650,000. Kaverman went deep into the tank but proceeded to let it go.

Fox Bets Big

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Elio Fox raised to 20,000 from the button and was called by both Jonathan Kamhazi and Alex Foxen in the blinds.

They all checked through the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} on the flop to the {9-Spades} on the turn. Kamhazi put in a chip of 25,000 but announced a bet of 21,000. Foxen clarified how much the bet was for, took a few seconds, and then opted to fold. Fox called.

The river completed the board with the {q-Hearts}, Kamhazi checked and Fox tanked using a time bank card. Fox then put in almost his whole stack for a bet of around 146,000, leaving himself behind with less than 10,000. Kamhazi looked a bit perplexed and quickly folded.
