A five-minute break will occur at :55 on the hour, every hour. Players may re-enter this tournament up to three times through the late registration period, which will last 2 hours and 50 minutes.

The 2021 PASCOOP has been a big success thus far. Through 25 events (75 tournaments), 30,872 entrants have competed and $1,436,104 in prize money awarded.

"sawyer2117" Ships a Double

Level 3 (125/250/30)

"AshyL4rry22" opened for 500 under the gun only to have "TightIsRight570" three-bet to 1,625 from middle position. "sawyer2117" then four-bet jammed for 4,910 from the cutoff and action folded back to "AshyL4rry22", who released. "TightIsRight570" called and the hands were turned up.

"TightIsRight570": {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
"sawyer2117": {q-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The {10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop gave both players a draw, and the {j-Spades} turn his "sawyer2117" by giving them a straight. "TightIsRight570" could still win with a diamond on the river, but it wasn't in the cards as the {k-Hearts} peeled off instead.

"SharkAttack27" Takes It with a Check-Raise

Level 5 (200/400/50)

After "AshyL4rry22" raised to 800 under the gun and three players called, including "SharkAttack27" from the cutoff, "SendMeUrSatoshi" three-bet to 4,000 from the button.

Everyone folded back to "SharkAttack27", who opted to call and see the {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop.

"SharkAttack27" checked, "SendMeUrSatoshi" bet 3,893, and "SharkAttack27" check-raised to 8,800. That did the trick as "SendMeUrSatoshi" released.
