Feser's Double is Short-Lived

The player in the cutoff raised to 1,000, Charles Furey flatted on the button, and Brian Feser moved all in for 3,600 in the small blind. The cutoff called and Furey moved all in to isolate to push the cutoff out of the pot.

Brian Feser: Q6 All in
Charles Furey: 99

The board ran out 64KQ5 with Feser improving to two pair, queens and sixes to secure the double up.

Priest Goes for It All

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

Cody Wang raised to 800 in early position, Gabriel Leost three-bet to 2,400 on the button, and Peter Priest cold-called in the small blind. Wang decided to stick around.

The flop came 926 and Priest led out for 4,200. Wang and Leost both continued to the 7 turn.

Priest bet 35,000 which was enough to put both of his opponents all in. Wang got out of the way and Leost folded ace-king face-up as the pot was pushed Priest's way.

Olshan Back to Starting Stack

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Sharman Olshan
Sharman Olshan

Action went multi-way to a flop of 25J where Sharman Olshan led out from the small blind for 700. Only William Beer called in the hijack.

The turn landed the 9 and Olshan bet again, this time for 1,200. Beer called and the river landed the K.

Olshan didn't slow down and tossed out a bet of 3,500.

"King of spades?" asked Beer, before making the call.

Olshan tabled QJ for a pair of jacks and Beer mucked his hand.

At a nearby table, Caitlin Comeskey was seen exiting the tournament area.
