Brewer Stays in Line

Level 5 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Chris Brewer
Chris Brewer

Juan Pardo opened to 5,500 from under the gun and Chris Brewer called on the button. Orpen Kisacikoglu and Byron Kaverman also called from the blinds.

Action checked to Brewer on the flop of {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and he bet 6,000. Only Kisacikoglu called. Brewer bet 35,000 on the {q-Spades} turn and Kisacikoglu laid it down.

As he folded, Kisacikoglu tried to get some information out of Brewer, who confessed he didn't have a made hand but had "plenty of equity."

"Definitely wasn't out of line!" Brewer laughed.

Addamo Falls to Thorel in Massive Cooler

Level 4 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Addamo
Michael Addamo

Michael Addamo opened to 4,500 from the hijack and Mike Watson called on the button before Jean-Noel Thorel three-bet to 12,000 from the big blind. Addamo four-bet to 42,000 and Watson folded. Thorel called.

Thorel checked on the {2-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop and Addamo bet a 10,000 for just a fraction of the pot. Thorel called.

Thorel checked again on the {q-Diamonds} turn and Addamo sized up to 55,000. Thorel check-raised to 110,000 and Addamo used a time bank before re-raising all in. Thorel called with a bigger stack.

Michael Addamo: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Both players had flopped monsters as Addamo had top set and Thorel had the nut flush. The {5-Clubs} river failed to pair the board and Addamo was eliminated after the dealer confirmed the Frenchman had him covered.

Mateos Bombs the River

Level 4 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

David Peters opened to 5,000 from under the gun and Adrian Mateos called from the big blind. The flop fell {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Mateos check-called a bet of 11,000 from Peters.

The {9-Hearts} paired the board on the turn and both players checked to the {a-Hearts} on the river. Mateos counted out a large bet of 66,500 but Peters instantly slung his cards to the muck.

Thorel Takes from Addamo

Level 4 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Michael Addamo opened to 5,000 from the hijack and Mike Watson called on the button, while Jean-Noel Thorel defended his big blind.

Thorel checked on the {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop and Addamo and Watson also checked. All three players checked again on the {a-Spades} turn.

Thorel checked a third time on the {2-Hearts} river and Addamo took a stab with a bet of 4,000. Watson folded and Thorel called.

Addamo showed {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for just jack-high and Thorel tabled {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} to win the pot with a pair of aces.

Holz Getting Shorter

Level 4 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Sam Grafton opened to 4,000 in the hijack and was called by Fedor Holz on the button and Nick Petrangelo in the big blind. The flop came {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} and the action checked to Holz who bet 3,500. Petrangelo called and Grafton got out of the way.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Petrangelo check-called another bet of 6,500 from Holz. The {8-Hearts} paired the board on the river and Petrangelo led out with a small bet of 9,000. Holz looked him up and Petrangelo tabled {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a full house to scoop another pot.
