Joshua Lien
Joshua Lien

Joshua Lien got entangled in a pot preflop as he and his opponent pushed the chips in the middle. Cards were on their back with Lien's opponent at risk.

Opponent: 109All in
Joshua Lien: AJ

Lien was ahead, and the flop did not bring any surprises as it came 744 to keep Lien in the lead.

The K turn was immaterial to either hand, and the A river sealed the deal in Lien's favor to take down the pot.

Trevino Wins Big Pot

Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Rob Trevino from early position, Benjamin Harris from the cutoff, and the small blind all got their chips in preflop to create a three-handed all-in with Trevino and the small blind at risk.

Small Blind: KQAll in
Rob Trevino: QQAll in
Benjamin Harris: AQ

Trevino was ahead, but he needed to fade the overcards of his opponents.

The flop was safe for Trevino as it came JJ7.

Trevino's lead stayed that way when the 9 turn, and the 8 river completed the board to award him the pot.

Flop Aggression from Brand

Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A player from early position raised to 2,500 before the player in the next seat over popped it to 7,000. Dennis Brand came along with a call from the hijack, and the original raiser also called.

Early position checked before the middle position player fired 10,000 on the A9Q flop.

Brand quickly re-raised to 25,000, which garnered a fold from his two opponents to scoop the pot.

Double KO for Lavas

Level 7 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michael Lavas
Michael Lavas

It was a three-way all-in preflop with Michael Lavas having both his opponents at risk.

Opponent: JJAll in
Justin Dreiling: 94All in
Michael Lavas: KQAll in

The pocket jacks were ahead, but not for long as the flop came down K610 to put Lavas in the lead. The Q turn furthered his lead, and the K river improved Lavas to a full house to award him the pot and secure the double knockout.

Dreiling was seen buying back in for a fresh starting stack after losing his small stack in this hand.
