Juma Gets a Shove Through; Chetty Busts

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jubal Chetty
Jubal Chetty

Three ways to the J♦10♦7♥ flop, Alan Jung and Cliton Taliwanth checked. Hafiz Juma bet 6,000 and Taliwanth was the only caller. Taliwanth checked again the 9♦ turn and then faced the shove by Juma for 30,600. Two time banks vanished and Taliwanth folded.

In the next hand, Jubal Chetty raised in the hijack and earned calls from Jaryd Jardien on the button as well as Kosta Kotsikaris in the big blind. The latter checked and Chetty jammed for 16,000. Jardien called but folded to the check-shove by Kotsikaris.

Jubal Chetty: A♠J♣ All in
Kosta Kotsikaris: 10♣8♥

The 2♥ turn and 3♠ river brought no help and Chetty departed. Jardien mentioned in the table chat he had folded pocket fives.

Howard Lipman

Two short stacks got their chips into the middle against Howard Lipman with Anjan Mulji and Muddassir Ameer at risk in what turned out to be a clash of three premium hands.

Anjan Mulji: A♥Q♥ All in
Muddassir Ameer: J♦J♣ All in
Howard Lipman: Q♠Q♦

The board ran out K♠10♠4♠A♠2♥ and Lipman knocked out the two opponents with the nut flush.

"Howard ... only the nuts!" another player at the table remarked.

In the last hand prior to the break, there was multi-action over on table two. Four ways to the 5♥4♦3♥ flop with a bet of 10,000 out in front of Hafiz Juma, Jubal Chetty pushed all-in from the very next seat in the hijack. Vishal Ghoorbin in the cutoff tank-folded and Kosta Kotsikaris also got out of the way. Juma burned through three time banks and then folded the A♠2♠ for the flopped wheel.

Chetty eventually exposed the 8♥6♥ for straight and flush draw. They even convinced the dealer to rabbit hunt the next card, which would have been the K♥ on the turn.

Marko Nortje
Marko Nortje

Marko Nortje had nearly doubled his stack after the recent re-entry only to then lose most of it. The remainder went in with the Q♦7♦ and he was looked up by Gerrit van der Spoel with the 2♥2♣.

On a board of A♦7♠2♦8♦8♠, the roller coaster ride gave Nortje a flush but van der Spoel paired up to a full house.

Blom Out and Back In

There are flipout tables happening where ten seats with a buy-in of ZAR1,500 award one Main Event entry. Several players in the field are purchasing the seats and among them was also Wesley Blom. It was just announced that he had won another of the flips to secure the seat and that very moment he was all-in for 6,400.

Joe Chan in the cutoff and Rajeev Poonhath on the button called, then checked to the A♦K♠7♥4♣8♣ river. Chan bet 5,000 and Poonhath folded.

Blom exposed the J♦5♦ and Chan had him beat with the 4♠4♥.

"Bring me that seat," Blom joked and re-entered shortly after.

Du Plessis Scores a Big Knockout

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With the turn showing K♥9♠3♥4♣, a player from Tanzania bet 15,000 and El-Juan Du Plessis then moved all-in. The other player had around 25,000 behind and eventually sighed, said "okay" and moved forward some chips for the call.

Du Plessis tabled his K♦K♣ for top set and had the elimination locked up, as his opponent only had 9♣3♣. The river brought the 9♥ and the six-figure pot was shipped to Du Plessis.

"I should not have been in the hand," the player from Tanzania remarked.

Du Plessis joined the biggest stacks with Cassiem Du Toit on the same table also right there.

Adriaan Bekker was all-in for 15,700 on the J♦10♠7♣ before Ivan Jarosz moved all-in over the top for more than double of that. Muzamio Gothey called and they turned them over.

Adriaan Bekker: J♠10♦ All in
Ivan Jarosz: Q♣Q♦ All in
Muzamio Gothey: Q♠Q♥

Both overpairs couldn't improve on the K♠ turn and 4♠ river as Bekker tripled up. Jarosz won a pot soon after before he then crashed out against Bekker.

The cards were already on their backs and SM could all but grin when the chips were pushed over to Darick Steenkamp in the next seat.

On a board of A♣A♥4♥7♣K♣, the A♠9♣ of Steenkamp had flopped trips and held against K♥5♥ for the nut flush draw.

Little Slam finalist Riccardo Rizzo had won his entry for the Main Event in a live satellite at Time Square Casino but was chipped down very early on. He then jammed all-in for around 7,500 on the K♠5♦3♦9♣ turn against Rajeev Poonhath, who made the call.

Riccardo Rizzo: 7♦6♦ All in
Rajeez Poonhath: K♣9♦

The top two pair held when the 10♠ river bricked off and Rizzo was gone after slightly more than half an hour of play.
