Three-Way All In Clash Results In Zero Bounties

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Andrew Lok jammed for 14,400 from the lojack, and Donald McCormick three-bet shoved for 50,600 in the small blind. Jon Wallace tanked for a bit in the big blind, then called off his last 47,600.

Lok: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
McCormick: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Wallace: {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Lok spiked a set on the {5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop, while Wallace paired his ace, leaving McCormick looking for runner-runner for the double KO. Wallace picked up outs to scoop the whole pot when the {7-Clubs} hit the turn, but he had to settle for the side pot after the {k-Clubs} hit the river. Lok tripled up, while McCormick was left very short, and he busted a few hands later to Frank Lagodich.

Cota Gets Bounty Number Six

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player jammed for 16,000 from the hijack, and Adin Cota three-bet to 45,000 on the button, chasing out the blinds.

Cota: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}

"You've got me in bad shape," Cota's opponent said.

The {5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop did little for either player, but the {q-Diamonds} turn sealed the fate of Cota's opponent one street early, and after the {3-Diamonds} fell on the river, Cota picked up his sixth bounty of the tournament, three of which have came in the last few minutes.

Cota's Flush With Cash After A Double KO

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

A player ripped his last 24,000 in from UTG, and Adin Cota called on the button. The small blind then jammed for 38,500 total, and Cota thought for a moment before tossing in calling chips.

Cota: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
UTG: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Small Blind: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

"Oh man, I'm dead!" The UTG player said upon seeing the hands.

The {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Spades} flop brought little help for anyone, but the {6-Clubs} turn gave Cota a flush draw to go with his overs, while his opponents both picked up a gutshot. The {q-Clubs} river completed Cota's flush, and he earned $1,000 for the double knockout.

It's All Easy Pease-y for Danforth

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Joel Danforth
Joel Danforth

The under-the-gun player raised to 4,000 and Joel Danforth, who was next to act, just called. The player in the small blind did the same and then Jason Pease three-bet all in for 9,600 from the big.

The UTG player put in a four-bet to 24,000 and Danforth snap five-bet jammed for approximately 75,000.

The player in the small blind got out of the way and the displeased UTG opted to release.

Danforth: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Pease: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Pease was looking for some help but was left wanting as the board ran out a lackluster {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{q-Spades}.

Lagodich Gets Value From Martin

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Kevin Martin raised to 3,500 from the hijack, and Frank Lagodich called in the big blind.

Both players checked a {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop, and Lagodich checked the {2-Clubs} turn. Martin bet 5,100 and Lagodich called.

Lagodich led out for 6,400 when the {8-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Martin thought for a moment before tossing in a single chip to call.

Lagodich rolled over the {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the nut flush, and Martin nodded and said, "Nice hand," before mucking.
