Connor Richards

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

In a heads-up pot on a board of 6♠8♣A♣Q♦, Qinghai Pan bet to put Brandon Wilson all in and Wilson called off for his final 155,000.

Brandon Wilson: 10♣5♣ All in
Qinghai Pan: A♦Q♠

Wilson had just ten-high against top two, but the 4♣ arrived on the river to bring him his flush as he doubled up.

Level 15 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Adam Weinraub open-jammed on the button for around 300,000 and Anil Jivani called in the small blind with slightly more. As they waited to flip their cards over, Jesse Lonis guessed that Jivani had ace-ten.

Adam Weinraub: 6♦6♠ All in
Anil Jivani: A♥10♣

Jivani was impressed that Lonis correctly guessed his hand and asked how he knew.

"If it was ace-nine you'd think longer and fold, if it was ace-jack you'd call quicker," Lonis explained.

"That's why he's the gorilla," said Jivani.

The board then ran out 4♠A♦K♦Q♣5♦ as Jivani paired his ace to send Weinraub to the rail.
