More for Mazabow and Moodley

Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The completed board showed Q♣10♠8♣6♣3♦ and Alexandre Blanc pushed all-in against Ariel Mazabow. The latter called after some consideration and Blanc shook his head, then revealed the A♥5♥ for a bluff gone wrong. Mazabow had the A♦10♦ for a pair of tens to double.

Shortly after on the same table, four ways to the 7♥4♦3♦ flop it was Kiran Moodley who bet 10,500. Chris Luyt raised to 35,500 and it folded back to Moodley who pushed all-in. Luyt started some table chat and suspected a set on the other side of the table.

"Will you show?" Luyt asked after using a time bank and then folded. Moodley flashed the 7♦7♠ for top set.

Imran Bhojani had re-entered only a few minutes ago and lost a chunk of his stack right away. He then check-raised the A♥6♠5♣ flop to 15,500 and Jayson Zulch reraised over the top. Bhojani sighed and called all-in for around 48,000.

Imran Bhojani: 4♠3♥ All in
Jayson Zulch: 6♦6♥

"Pair the board," Zulch requested and that wish was granted with the A♦ on the river.

Bhojani was on his way out the very moment Ben arrived for his second bullet.

On a paired queen-high river, Damon Fine bet 26,000 and was called by William Henderson. "Ace high," Fine declared and showed his A♥5♦ which had missed the board. Henderson tabled his 9♦9♥ for nines and sixes to scoop the pot.

Various other counts can be found below.

Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The big stack on his table not long ago, Ariel Mazabow now only has two T-25,000 chips at his disposal. In a multi-way pot to the A♠7♥5♣8♣K♥ river, he bet for 10,500 and Paul Graham called in the next seat. Mazabow announced two pair and revealed the 8♦5♦, but Graham had the best of it with K♠7♣ for kings and sevens.

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

Jubal Chetty was among the more recent entries and just fired two barrels to force out Jayson Zulch, who dropped to a shorter stack. Multi ways to the A♣4♠2♥ flop, only Zulch called Chetty's bet before the latter jammed the K♠ turn. Zulch let go and was shown the Q♣10♣.

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

Nico Wiechers three-bet to 11,000 on the button and was called only by the initial raiser from under the gun. On the K♦10♣4♣ flop, both players checked to the 6♦ on the turn. It was checked to Wiechers and his bet of 10,500 won the pot without resistance.

Ashley Hira called over the blog team and alerted of a big pot on his table which had seen a setup hand unfold between Rudy Frick and Alexandre Blanc, worth three starting stacks. The cards and board was still showing on 9♠9♣7♣9♥A♣ and Frick secured the double with J♦9♦ for quads.

"Are you still calling if there is no ace on the river?" Blanc was asked, who was not 100% certain. The aces he did have, though, as A♦A♠ became a very expensive affair for the French player.

Sequeira is Not Folding

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

Ricardo Sequeira check-called a bet by Dirk Steenkamp on the 9♦4♥3♠ flop and the latter then sized up to 10♦ turn when he fired a bet of 35,000. Unfazed, Sequeira called and checked the repeat nine on the 9♠ river. Steenkamp sighed and said "you are not folding" before checking behind.

Sequeira tabled the A♥10♥ and that won the pot, much to the dismay of Steenkamp.
