Tang Doubles His Short Stack

Level 5 : 0/0, 3,000 ante

Gabe Patgorski raised to 22,000 in the second position and the action stopped at short-stacked Devan Tang on the button.

"Gamble, gamble!" Patgorski encouraged him and Tang called to see the {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} hit the felt. Patgorski then put him all in for 29,000 effective and Tang called.

Patgorski: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Tang: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

"Sorry, I can't high-five you, I have no more bullets," Tang laughed. His hand remained the best after the {J-Clubs} turn and {A-Diamonds} river rolled out, beating Patgorski with superior two pair.

Jetten Doesn't Pay Robl

Level 5 : 0/0, 3,000 ante

Peter Jetten raised under the gun to 15,000 with {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}. Winfred Yu was in the cutoff with {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and he called. Andrew Robl was on the button with {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} and he called as well.

The flop was {A-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Jetten checked his option. Yu checked behind and Robl checked too.

Katz Tank-Folds to Koon's Shove

Level 5 : 0/0, 3,000 ante

Four-way to the {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Spades}, Jason Koon checked in the first position and Gabe Patgorski fired 30,000. Cary Katz raised to 62,000 in the cutoff, prompting a fold from Romain Arnaud on the button. Koon, however, cold-called and Patgorski also matched the price.

The dealer turned up the {6-Diamonds} river and Koon front-shoved 110,000. Patgorski quickly folded but Katz paused for a while. He used two timebanks before finally tossing his cards into the muck, leaving the pot to Koon.

Tan Takes a Stack From Yu

Level 5 : 0/0, 3,000 ante

Xuan Tan opened to 21,000 under the gun and Winfred Yu was in the hijack with {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}. He moved all in for 137,000 and action folded back to Tan who decided to call with {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and that gave Tan two pair while Yu just held ace-high. That meant that Yu would be forced to use one of his reload bullets while Tan moved to 424,000 in chips.
