Tollerene Bets River to Win

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

From under the gun, Erik Seidel raised to 7,500 and both Jake Schindler and Ben Tollerene called in the cutoff and small blind respectively.

The flop landed {3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Seidel continued for 13,000 with only Tollerene calling as the turn landed the {6-Hearts} and both players checked.

The river landed the {10-Spades} and Tollerene led out for 70,000 and Seidel folded.

David Peters Calls Off His Stack

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

David Peters

With roughly 140,000 in the pot and a board reading {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, Justin Bonomo burned a time extension thinking about what to do in the small blind. Eventually he went all in and put the pressure on David Peters, who was sitting with around 190,000 back.

Peters thought for two and a half minutes, burning his last two time extensions in the process, and then quietly said, "Call."

Bonomo rolled over the {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for two pair, and it was good as Peters had called him with the {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. With that, Peters' Poker Masters experience has come to an end.

Aldemir Wins on Flop

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

From under the gun, Steffen Sontheimer raised to 7,000 and both Koray Aldemir and Erik Seidel called from the cutoff and big blind respectively.

The flop landed {6-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and both Seidel and Sontheimer checked to Aldemir who bet out 10,000.

Seidel folded, as did Sontheimer, and Aldemir collected the pot.

Petrangelo Doubles

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

David Peters opened to 7,500 in the cutoff and Nick Petrangelo shoved all in from the small blind for 32,000. Peters called, and the cards were tabled.

Peters: {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Petrangelo: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Petrangelo doubled to nearly 70,000 as Peters slipped to 261,000 in chips.

Isaac Haxton Eliminated by Rast's Set

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Isaac Haxton
Isaac Haxton

Isaac Haxton raised to 6,000 from the hijack and Daniel Negreanu called from the cutoff. Brian Rast and Scott Seiver also called from the blinds.

Haxton: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Negreanu: {8-Spades}{6-Spades}
Rast: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Seiver: {9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts} which spelled disaster for Haxton. The action was checked around, however, to the {4-Hearts} on the turn. Rast checked again and Seiver took a shot for 17,000. Haxton just called and Negreanu folded.

Rast finally showed some aggression and raised to 67,000. Seiver mucked his hand and Haxton shipped all-in. Rast quickly called and Haxton was drawing dead to the {9-Hearts} on the river.
