Qiu Takes Two in a Row; Robertson Bests Stang

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Peter Robertson
Peter Robertson

Joe Antar raised to 140,000 first to act and was called two ways by Mark Lassau and Peter Robertson in the small blind. Wenjian Qiu in the big blind moved all in for 1,500,000 and collected the chips without resistance as all his opponents folded.

Tu Le made it 160,000 to go and Qiu in the small blind three-bet to 325,000, which Le called. The flop came {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and a bet of 205,000 by Qiu did the trick to shut down all further action.

In the next hand, Robertson raised to 180,000 from the cutoff and picked up a call by Bernie Stang in the big blind. On a {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop, Stang checked his option and Robertson continued for 155,000, which Stag called. The turn delivered the {7-Spades} and Stang double-checked his cards before leading 250,000. Robertson called and both players checked the {4-Spades} on the river.

Stag turned over the {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for queen-jack high and a busted gutshot, while Robertson won the pot with {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for eights and sevens.
