Sergio Dario Takes Down a Massive Three-Way All in

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Sergio Dario Tello
Sergio Dario Tello

Teunis Kooij was under the gun and raised to 4,500. Sergio Dario Tello was in middle position and called. Milton De La Fuente three-bet up to 22,000 from the cutoff and action was back on Kooij who pushed all in for 104,000. Tello tanked for several minutes, having Kooij covered by about 70,000. Tello elected to call, as did Fuente for his remaining 20,000.

Tello tabled {a-Spades}{k-Spades}, Kooij showed {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} and Fuente had {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came down {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, putting Tello in the lead and leaving Kooij drawing very slim, and with Fuente holding the only diamond to make a flush. The turn and river bricked off with the {4-Clubs} and {6-Spades}, sending this monstrous pot to Tello and making him our new chip leader.

Aces Hold for Christian Velasquez

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Christian Velasquez was on the button and raised to 4,000. Janir Muller was in the big blind and three-bet to 12,500. Velasquez didn't take long to go all in for 29,600 and Muller snap-called.

Velasquez tabled {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} and Muller was well behind with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}.

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and was no help to Muller. Velasquez is back over his starting stack on the day and looks to build momentum early on.

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jorge Teodoulou was under the gun and raised to 4,100. Rodrigo Borquez was in the big blind and defended.

The river was the {8-Clubs} and both players checked.

Borquez showed {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of aces and Teodoulou tabled pocket sevens.

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}, giving Ortiz top two pair and sending Contreras to the rail.
