Goltz Sends Tapley to the Rail

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Shem Goltz opened to 1,500 and was called once before Kieran Tapley three-bet to 3,700. Goltz four-bet to 9,500 and Tapley was the only caller.

On a flop of 9♣6♥2♠, Tapley bet 7,000 to get called and the same amount was wagered on the 6♦ turn for Golz to call. Tapley then bet the J♣ river for 17,000 and Goltz moved all-in. One of his three time banks disappeared before Tapley called with the 7♥7♣ and was shown the A♦A♣ by Goltz.

Early chip leader at the table is Mario Doria.

Mohajerani Pays Off Ting

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Heads-up to the 9♥4♦3♦K♥ turn, Farhad Mohajerani bet 2,400 and then called a raise to 7,000. The 9♠ fell on the river and Mohajerani opted to check. Leung Ting then bet another 14,500 and Mohajerani instantly suspected that he was getting baited into a call. After one time bank had vanished, Mohajerani called and was shown 3♥3♣ for treys full to lose a decent chunk of his stack.
