Ollie Garland

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The action was caught as Alexandra Loveless was all in and at risk against three other players with the flop reading K♦3♣10♠.

James Hearty, in early position, checked. Tim Jones, in middle position, bet out 6,000 and the button folded. Hearty called.

The 3♥ turn saw Hearty check and then fold to a bet of 10,000 from Jones.

Alexandra Loveless: K♠Q♦ All in
Tim Jones: A♥10♥

Jones was behind and the 2♦ river changed nothing, securing Loveless this small quadruple up.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The pot stood at 8,800 with two players looking at flop of 3♦10♥5♠.

Thomas Brady, in the big blind, checked the action to Wendy Watson, who was under the gun. Watson bombed the river with a bet of 8,000, sending Brady into the tank.

Brady eventually chose to muck the 10♠ face up, having folded top pair. As Watson raked in the pot, she rolled over K♠K♦, proving to Brady he had made the correct fold.

Florencia Gigena raised to 1,200 from the hijack, Rosemary Halbach called in the cutoff, as did Maria Lachana and Theresa Newton, on the button and in the big blind, respectively.

The 5♠A♠J♠ flop saw Newton play out of flow, leading for 2,300. Gigena called, and Halbach elected to raise to 5,000. Lachana folded and so did Newton. Gigena called.

The Q♠ turn saw Gigena play in flow, Halbach sized up to 10,000 and Gigena chose to fold.

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Amy Leonard, in middle position, found herself all in and at risk for her effective stack of 15,100, against Alexandre Peschel, in middle position.

Amy Leonard: A♠K♦ All in
Alexandre Peschel: 8♣8♥

Leonard was ahead and the 4♣J♦2♥ flop proved no threat. The 2♦ turn was a safe one, but the A♦ river saw Leonard propelled into the lead, securing her double up.

Peschel was initially left with 2,800 behind the line, but in only a matter of hands was seen making his way to the rail.
