Winter Takes It Down

Kirk Brown

Level 19 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Marcus Webb opened to 55,000 from middle position and then was three-bet to 130,000 by Brian Winter in the cutoff.

Donnie Phan wanted no part of this interaction and quickly got out of the way while Webb made the call.

On the flop of 5♣5♥9♥, Webb quickly checked it over to Winter who continued by sliding out a stack of 100,000 which resulted in a hasty fold from Webb to award him the pot.

Walker Wakes Up

Kirk Brown

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of 9djc6c], there were already around 200,000 chips in the middle when Carl Masters bet 80,000.

His opponent, David Walker, then decided to check-raise all in for 325,000 and Masters went deep into the tank.

"Why do you look so nervous? Did you flop a set?" Masters inquired, but got no response from Walker.

After several long minutes, Masters finally decided to make the call to put Walker at risk, who then proudly displayed J♠J♦ for top set of jacks.

"Yeah... Nice hand," Masters sighed as he tapped the table and flipped over Q♠Q♦. He was then drawing only to a queen or running king-ten for a straight but the runout of 4♠K♣ did not do it and Walker was pushed the pot for a huge double-up.

On a four-way flop of 10♣8♠9♣, action checked to Hyun Lee who bet 40,000 and Chad Hall made the call behind. But then Brian Winter check-raised to 120,000 and got his opponents to muck their hands to award him the pot.

Jones' Jacks Eject Izadi

Kirk Brown

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

After Dale Jones opened, Hamid Izadi moved all in for around 175,000 and action folded back around to Jones who quickly made the call to put him at risk.

Hamid Izadi: A♦K♣
Dale Jones: J♠J♣

No ace or king appeared on the runout of 3♠7♠3♦6♦5♠ which meant Jones' jacks held to knock out Izadi in 62nd place.
