Stapleton Is Playing Bad; Wins With a Chop

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Joe Stapleton
Joe Stapleton

In three-way action to the 5♣5♠2♠ flop, the action checked to akira3 and he bet 2,100 to earn one call while Joe Stapleton folded and gave the following remark.

"I got a quote for your reporting. I couldn't be playing worse and I am the worst player at the table by far," he said and even suggested that it might cause an international incident if things were to get worse.

On the 4♥ turn, akira3 called a bet of 2,000 and then faced another bet of 6,500 on the 8♥ river. He opted for a raise to 25,000 and forced out his opponent.

Stapleton then four-bet jammed for 20,000 and was called by A♣K♥ to show his A♠K♠. There were no shenanigans on the 9♥8♥7♣4♦Q♥ runout and Stapleton chopped the pot.

"I played that one well," he joked.

Haruto Among the Chip Leaders

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

With the board showing K♠10♦9♥7♣J♣ and more than 38,000 already in the middle, Haruto faced a shove and eventually called to get shown the A♥J♠ for just a pair of jacks. He had that beat with the K♥K♣ for a set of kings to earn the knockout and a big stack.

In a preflop three-way all-in, two players were at risk with 2♠2♦ and A♣Q♥ while KENSHIN333 had them both covered and revealed the A♥K♠. The mighty ducks remained in the lead until the 8♥6♣3♦5♠ turn but KENSHIN333 rivered the K♦ to send two opponents to the rail.

With the turn showing J♠6♦4♦3♠, the small blind checked and then called a bet of 3,100 by Andrew Tomoya in the cutoff. They checked the 9♣ on the river and Tomoya was shown 9♦5♦ for a missed double draw and rivered pair of nines. He had that beat with the A♥J♥ to win the pot.

The First Eliminations Are Coming In

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

It took more than a level but the first players are eventually running out of chips. One of those benefitting from it was SurarinPoker, who had a short stack at risk preflop and then isolated on the 9♦2♣2♠ flop. He tabled the J♣J♦ and had little to fear versus 8♠6♣, locking up the knockout with the 2♥ turn and 5♦ river.

Yoshitaka

On the river of a A♥10♣4♠7♠2♣ board, Yoshitaka faced a bet of 12,000 and called after only a few seconds of consideration. He was shown the 8♦8♣ for a pair of eights only and won the pot with the A♣Q♦ for top pair.

mugimugi Earns With a Straight

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

mugimugi opened the button to 500 and the small blind called, Shio in the big blind three-bet to 1,800 and earned two calls. On the Q♦J♠10♣ flop, it checked to Shio and he bet 2,000 to earn yet another two calls.

After the 7♥ turn, the small blind and Shio checked for mugimugi to bet 3,500 and that was only called by the small blind who then led the K♠ river for 8,000. mugimugi pushed all-in for 23,900 and his opponent reluctantly folded to get shown A♥9♦ for both ends of the straight.

"Shio" Takes a Showdown Pot

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

The first update to the player field shows a total of 109 entries mid-way through the first level and no player has been eliminated so far. One of the early notable showdown pots saw "Shio" check-call for 1,300 with the board showing 8♠4♠2♦K♦7♥ and his K♠10♥ in the big blind was good, as his opponent only showed K♠10♥.
