Brit Scores Big with Pocket Jacks

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jeffrey Birt
Jeffrey Birt

There was four-way all in action preflop which included 2017 MSPT Running Aces champ Jeffrey Birt from the hijack.

Jeffrey Birt: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
All-In Player: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}
UTG Player: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Small Blind Player: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

A bunch of premium hands were revealed with the small blind holding the best with pocket aces and the {2-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop didn't change a thing.

The {7-Spades} turn however, made things interesting as it gave Birt and the player in middle position a gut shot straight draw.

Luckily for Brit, the dealer dropped the {9-Hearts} on the river securing him a triple-up the side pot for 27,000 while he and the player from middle position chopped the main pot.

Bullock Makes His Move on Kolness

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

Action quickly folded to Tyler Kolness who raised to 3,000 from the button and Raymond Bullock defended his big blind to see a {5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop.

Bullock check-raised to 12,000 after Kolness continued for 3,000 and Kolness called bringing the {k-Spades} turn.

Bullock moved all-in for roughly 50,000 sending Kolness into the tank. After some careful consideration, Kolness mucked his hand and Bullock collected the pot.
