Hen Bets Out O'Hara on the River

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

Ian O'Hara, who recently reentered the tournament, opened for 1,500 from middle position and Ory Hen pushed back with a three-bet to 4,500 from the button. Both blinds folded, O'Hara called, and the flop came down {2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}.

O'Hara check-called a bet of 6,500 and then action went check-check on the {2-Hearts} turn.

When the {a-Clubs} completed the board on the river, O'Hara checked for the third time and Hen returned to betting, this time tossing out 12,000. That did the trick as O'Hara released his hand.

"Stick Around, There'll Be More"

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

With 7,400 in the middle and a board reading {8-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Thomas Gari was sitting in the big blind with 11,000 out in front of him while Vivo Loubaton, who had already committed 5,500 on the turn from early position, was debating what to do.

Eventually, he called the min-raise and the {2-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. Thomas moved all in for 49,400 and Loubaton shot back in his chair.

"Wow, first time I've seen you all in all day," Loubaton said.

"Stick around, there'll be more," Thomas shot back. Loubaton paused for a few more beats and then laid down his hand.
