Watt Flashes Aces

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

With two titles already banked at this year's World Cup of Cards, Andrew Watt is gearing up for a third deep run. Watt made bets preflop and continued on the {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop, getting the player who called in the big blind to fold.

Watt flashed pocket aces as the dealer pushed another pot his way.

Pascal Monarque
Pascal Monarque

Marc Guerbilsky three-bet to 13,500 on the button and Pascal Monarque four-bet shoved for 41,300. After a moment in the tank, Guerbilsky called, putting Monarque at risk.

Monarque: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Guerbilsky: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Monarque would win the race and double up after a {2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} board fanned out.

Zhang Yin Quadruples Up; Taylor Doubles

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

William Zhang Yin moved all-in from early position for just two big blinds and Joseph Verdugo three-bet to 7,000. Stuart Taylor four-bet, making it 20,500 and then tank-called a five-bet jam from Verdugo, putting himself at risk.

Verdugo: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Taylor: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Zhang Yin: {3-Spades}{4-Spades}

Zhang Yin needed a miracle to stay alive and that's just what happened on the {3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{a-Clubs} board. Zhang Yin flopped two pair and they held to earn a quadruple up.

Unfortunately, for Verdugo, an ace hit the river and Taylor doubled through, leaving Verdugo short.

Boutin Scores a Double KO

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Louis Boutin
Louis Boutin

Paul Scott called an open from middle position only to see both Erim Gulec and Louis Boutin move all-in in front of him. Gulec's shove was for 18,500 and Boutin had Scott covered with 34,000. Scott had about 30,000 total and decided he needed to take down a big pot to make a deep run, sliding his stack forward.

Scott: {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Gulec: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Boutin: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, giving Boutin trips, and he scooped the whole pot to bust both of his opponents.
