No Luck for "Dutchpunk"

Anthony Thompson
Anthony Thompson
Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

"Dutchpunk" open-jammed for their last 70,759 from the button and only "lildani9" called from the small blind.

"lildani9": {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}
"Dutchpunk": {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

"Dutchpunk" was behind needing help but none came after the {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop appeared.

The {7-Clubs} turn did give "Dutchpunk" some life with an open-ended straight draw but the {q-Clubs} river ended their tournament.

"YujiMatsui17": {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
"Alexandro466":{k-Clubs}{j-Spades}

"Alexandro466" was behind holding needing some help but the {10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Spades} runout ended their tournament.

Level 18 : 3,500/7,000, 875 ante

"Madcandle" raised from middle position and then called the 57,621 three-bet jam "ethPaps" made from the button.

"ethPaps": {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
"Madcandle": {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

"ethPaps" was dominated and the {k-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop.

The {10-Spades} turn gave both players a broadway draw but the {3-Hearts} river was a brick and eliminated "ethPaps" from the tournament.
