Level 14 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Erick Lindgren
Erick Lindgren

The blinds duked it out when Erick Lindgren jammed for 39,000 from the small blind and was called by Chen Liao in the big blind to put Lindgren at risk.

Erick Lindgren: 77All in
Chen Liao: 106

Lindgren needed to fade the ten as an immediate out, and the flop complied when it came K2Q.

The turn brought a sweat as the J peeled off to give Liao a straight draw, but it was not meant to be as the Q river came to secure the double for Lindgren.

Hesse Chips Up as Zhang Hits Bump in the Road

Level 14 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Stephen Hesse
Stephen Hesse

There was over 80,000 in the middle on the board of 92810 in a pot between Stephen Hesse in the hijack position and Haixia Zhang on the button.

Hesse chose to bet 40,000 on the turn. Zhang mulled over her decision and called to send them to a river.

The 10 river led to a big bet of 175,000 from Hesse. Zhang played a time chip as she was in the tank and even went as far as cutting out the amount of chips to call, but thought better of it as she folded to award the pot to Hesse.

Hoffman Stays in Contention

Level 14 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jonathan Wang got the hand started with a raise to 10,000 from the hijack. Wang was called by Daniel Burgess on the button before Jedidiah Hoffman decided to go all-in for 53,500 from the small blind. Wang exited the hand, and Burgess gave it some thought before he called to put Hoffman at risk.

Jedidiah Hoffman: AJAll in
Daniel Burgess: KQ

It was a coin flip between Hoffman and Burgess as Hoffman held the slight edge.

Hoffman's chances at success grew after the flop fanned out 559. The 4 turn and the 6 river were safe for Hoffman as he doubled up at the expense of Burgess.
