Kabrhel Continues to Climb

Level 4 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Tan Xuan opened to 10,000 from the hijack, Dan Smith called on the button, Martin Kabrhel stuck around from the small blind, and Andrew Robl then three-bet to 65,000.

Xuan was the only one to fold and the flop came down {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Spades}. Action checked to Robl, he bet 50,000 and both of his opponents called. A {10-Spades} fell on the turn and all three players checked to the {j-Spades} river card.

Kabrhel bet 31,500, Robl folded and Smith called. Kabrhel tabled {7-Spades}{6-Spades} for a flush and Smith mucked, shipping the chips to Kabrhel.

Jiang Secures a Pot Through Pantling

Level 3 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Andrew Pantling opened to 9,000 from the hijack with {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, Richard Yong called on the button with his {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Alfred DeCarolis was holding {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts} when he called in the small blind. Sosia Jiang three-bet to 90,000 after looking down at {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and Pantling quickly pushed in a four-bet of 180,000.

Action folded to Jiang who called and the dealer spread {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} out on the flop. Jiang check-called a bet of 150,000 from Pantling and the {7-Clubs} hit the felt as a turn card.

Both players checked, a {5-Clubs} landed and both players checked again. Jiang turned over her hand, showing her flush and Pantling mucked, sending the pot to Jiang.

Yong Scoops Zang

Level 3 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Rob Yong
Rob Yong

In what was presumably a three-bet pot, Aaron Zang saw a {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop together with Rob Yong and Leon Tsoukernik. Zang, in the big blind, bet 120,000, Yong called from the hijack and Tsoukernik folded the cutoff.

The turn brought the {q-Spades} and both players quickly checked. The river was the {6-Diamonds} and Zang cut out a bet of 285,000, which got snapped off by Yong.

Zang showed {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} but was second best as Yong revealed {10-Spades}{8-Spades} for a flush.

Tsoukernik Shows a Bluff

Level 3 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Leon Tsoukernik opened to 12,000 from the hijack, Winfred Yu called on the button and Paul Phua raised it up to 65,000. Tsoukernik was the only caller and the flop came down {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Phua check-called a bet of 90,000 from Tsoukernik and the {j-Clubs} fell as a turn card. Phua checked to Tsoukernik who bet 150,000 and Phua sent his hand into muck.

Tsoukernik said "It's a bluff," as he turned over {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for ace-high. Phua shook his head and laughed as Tsoukernik stacked his newly acquired chips.

Petrangelo and Greenwood Collide Again With Big Pairs

Level 3 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Sam Greenwood raised to 9,500 with {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades} in the hijack and Danny Tang called with {3-Spades}{3-Clubs} on the button. Nick Petrangelo once again found aces and three-bet to a sizable 110,000 in the big blind with {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. Greenwood called the reraise while Tang folded.

The flop was {q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Petrangelo continued for 60,000, which Greenwood called. The {q-Clubs} paired the board on the turn and Petrangelo now bet 120,000, followed by another call from Greenwood. The Canadian had 341,000 behind after calling the turn.

The {10-Spades} on the river gave Petrangelo the winner and he thought for a bit before checking. Greenwood instantly checked behind and mucked when Petrangelo showed him the aces.

Three players saw an {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop together and Sam Trickett checked the big blind. Michael Soyza bet 12,000 in the cutoff, Jason Koon raised to 35,000 on the button, Trickett folded, and Soyza called. On the {8-Diamonds} turn, Soyza checked, Koon bet 55,000, and Soyza called.

The river brought the {8-Clubs} and Soyza checked. Koon settled on a bet of 230,000 and Soyza went deep in the tank, burning through three time extensions in the process. He seized up his neighbor, while Koon kept staring solemnly into the distance.

After using his third time extension, Soyza flicked in a call.

"Straight," announced Koon, who showed the winner with {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Soyza mucked and slipped to 661,000.
