Pater Leads the Way For Now

Christian Zetzsche

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

A medium-size pot emerged right in front of the feature table and the current chip leader Kinesh Pater was involved in the action. There was no further action on the A♥6♥5♠4♥10♥ river when a fourth heart appeared and the opponent of Pater tabled the 6♣5♠ for two pair.

Pater, however, had the 5♦5♥ for a flopped set that became a flush and missed out on claiming even further chips.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Nic Ioannoy bagged up nearly six starting stacks last night but entered Day 1c in an attempt to run up even more chips or have some fun splashing around. The first of the preflop all-ins saw him at risk against Damon Fine for a big portion of the starting stack.

Nic Ioannoy: J♥9♥ All in
Damon Fine: A♥K♣

The board ran out 8♠7♦5♠6♠K♠ and Ioanniy doubled to leave Fine short.

Fine then jammed for 4,500 soon after and Peter Smith called. Ioannoy jammed behind for 60,300 and Smith folded after getting a count.

Damon Fine: 10♥8♥ All in
Nic Ioannoy: K♣Q♠

Fine predicted to hit a straight flush but the [AdAhJKc3hKd] runout further piled misery on his already disastrous day of all-in showdowns.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

The fourth level has surpassed the half-way point and the screens currently show 87 players out of 103 entries remaining. It seems just a matter of time until the third flight becomes the strongest starting day and the turbo heat is still to come.

Furthermore, the live stream action is now also underway and can be followed on the stream tab right above the updates or via the Monster Jam Poker Tour YouTube and Twitch channels.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Shannon Elizabeth won an early pot after the break when she bet half the pot for 2,000 on the 7♦4♦2♦8♣5♦ river out of the big blind and the small blind folded.

One hand later, Peter Smith raised to 1,700 from under the gun to get called by Keegan Pillay, Aleko Manganas and Damon Fine in the big blind. On the Q♠10♦7♥, only Fine check-called for 3,800 when Smith bet.

They checked the 4♦ turn and 8♥ river for Smith to win the pot with A♥Q♥.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

On a flop of Q♠10♦8♦, Elai Mazor bet 2,600 when checked to by the big blind. Kinesh Pater folded on the cutoff and the big blind check-raised to 6,600.

"Four more?" Mazor inquired and then called a few seconds later. Both checked the 2♦ turn and K♥ river for Mazor to announce two pair, exposing the Q♥8♥. The big blind flashed A♥10♠ and Mazor won the pot.
