"enriqMSTacho" continues dominant Day 1 Performance

After an open to 1,400 from the hijack and a call from the button, "enriqMSTacho" raised to 5,600 from the small blind. The hijack, "Per.V7" moved all in for 24,443 effective. After the button got out of the way, and "enriqMSTacho" made the call. With 51,706 in the middle, the cards were flipped.

"Per.V7": 77
"enriqMSTacho":AK

The classic race saw "enriqMSTacho" pull into a slight lead after the monotone J4Q flop gave him flush and straight draws to go along with his over cards. The 9 turn completed that draw, and left "Per.V7" drawing dead as the 8 came on the river inconsequentially, awarding the pot to "enriqMSTacho".

On the very next deal, "enriqMSTacho" opened to 1,540 from the button. After a raise to 4,200 from "Nur557" in the small blind and a fold from the big blind, "enriqMSTacho" made the call to see the 1027 flop. He proceeded to a call his opponent's bet of 4,865, leading to the A turn. With less than half the pot remaining in their stack, "Nur557" moved all in and got called.

"Nur557": QQ
"enriqMSTacho": 77

"Nur557" was drawing thin against the set of sevens, and the 5 sealed their fate, as "enriqMSTacho" continues a dominating Day 1 performance to this point.

With 15,070 already in the middle, three players saw the K10K flop. Action checked to the cutoff who fired out for 6,023. "Royalspecial" made the call before "schwester" folded.

After the 4 turn, "zarepokerboy" put in a hefty bet of 19,252. "Royalspecial" had his opponent covered easily and decided to apply maximum pressure, check-raising all-in for 44,769 effective. "zarepokerboy" made the call.

"Royalspecial":1010

In quite the cooler, "zarepokerboy" managed to flop trip kings yet was still outflopped by the full house of "Royalspecial". There were still outs to make a higher full house, but the 7 on the river was not one of those outs, sending the pot to "Royalspecial" and "zarepokerboy" to the rail.

Deuces Deliver Knockout Blow

Level 10 : Blinds 300/600, 75 ante

Five players, including PokerStars Ambassador Ben "Spraggy" Spragg limped into the hand before seeing the 2K6 flop.

The original better put in a three bet to 12,552. A fold from late position left the pot heads-up and action on "fina_tjejen", who moved all in as the player at risk for 25,309 effective. "&scorpião$78" made the call and they tabled their hands with 56,666 in the middle.

"fina_tjejen": K6
"&scorpião$78": 22

"&scorpião$78" was in good position with a set of deuces, but still needed to fade his opponent's outs to a full house. The Q turn left just a 9.1% chance for a cooler, before the A river sealed the pot, and knockout, for "&scorpião$78".

Level: 10

Blinds: 300/600

Two Pair over Two Pair

Level 9 : Blinds 250/500, 60 ante

After "KujoJolyne", the big blind, called a bet of 1,200 from "Spor1sh01" on the button, the two went heads-up to the flop of 1053.

"KujoJolyne" check-raised from 1,200 to 3,180. "Spor1sh01" called the raise, giving way to the 9 turn. On this street, "KujoJolyne" sized up to 7,440, earning another call. With 24,540 already in the pot, both players had around a pot-sized bet left behind, with "Spor1sh01" as the slightly smaller stack at 23,549. Upon the 7 on the river, "KujoJolyne" moved all in and got called.

"Spor1sh01": 107
"KujoJolyne": 59

Both players had managed to flop a pair and hit a second on later streets, but the tens of "Spor1sh01" proved invaluable, as they scooped the pot.

"enriqMSTacho" scores second knockout in as many hands

In early position, "enriqMSTacho" raised to 1,100, getting calls from both blinds. He continued for 1,247 on the 34Q flop. The small blind folded before the big blind, "DirtyPhoenix", made the call.

"DirtyPhoenix" made another check-call on the J turn, this time for 9,411. On the 7 river, "enriqMSTacho" moved all in for 35,348 effective, putting his opponent at risk if they call. They were able to find that call, and soon got the bad news.

"DirtyPhoenix": QA
"enriqMSTacho": 33

Top pair was no good against the set of threes, and "DirtyPhoenix" was sent to the rail while "enriqMSTacho" added to his chip lead.

On the very next deal, "enriqMSTacho" once again found himself delivering a knockout blow. "CarppiCala" opened to 1,100 from under the gun. Action folded all the way to "enriqMSTacho" in the big blind, who called.

"CarppiCala": AJ
"enriqMSTacho": K5

"CarppiCala" was in good shape to survive and double up with top pair. However, the 3 river completed the flush draw, sending them to the rail, while "enriqMSTacho" picked up a second consecutive pot.
