A Set for Salame

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On a board reading {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, with about 150,000 in the pot, Jean-Claude Salame checked from the small blind. Hugo Dupont bet 50,000 from the big blind and Gaurav Arora raised to 120,000 from under the gun. Salame wasted no time and moved all in for about 150,000. Dupont thought for a moment but opted to fold. Arora called.

Salame was at risk but miles ahead with {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a set of eights. Arora tabled {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for top pair.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and the river was the {j-Hearts}, sending the pot to Salame.

Aces Hold for Pavel Covaliov

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mike Leah raised to 30,000 from the hijack and Pavel Covaliov three-bet to 85,000 on the button. Leah moved all in and Covaliov quickly called.

Covaliov was at risk but well ahead with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, up against Leah's {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and Covaliov held on to double up.

Quite the Turn of Events for Sivakumar and Dang

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

On the flop of a {7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} board, a raising war between Alexander Dang and Sutharsan Sivakumar ended with both players all-in.

Dang: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Sivakumar: {j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Dang was caught making a move but an {8-Hearts} on the turn quickly turned the tables. Unfortunately, for Dang, justice was served on the river as the {k-Spades} completed the board giving Sivakumar a better two pair and sealed the double up.

Dang began to walk away from the table but was called back to see 38,000 returned to his seat.

Oliver Gergely Catches Junior Roberts

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The player under the gun limped in, as did Junior Roberts from early position and a player in middle position. Oliver Gergely was in the small blind and raised it up to 56,000. The under-the-gun player folded, Roberts called and the player in middle position folded.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Gergely led out for 52,000. Roberts called.

The turn was the {a-Diamonds} and Gergely checked. Roberts quickly bet 52,000 and Gergely called. The river was the {6-Clubs} and Gergely checked again. Roberts quickly fired out a bet worth 85,000 and Gergely tossed out a single chip to call. "You're good" said Roberts, reluctant to show his hand. Gergely waited, and Roberts flashed just the {k-Clubs}. Gergely half-smiled and signaled for Roberts to show both cards, prompting him to reveal {k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for king-high. Gergely tabled {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and raked in the pot.

Xuan Huy Phan Doubles Through Mike Leah

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Xuan Huy Phan raised to 25,000 from early position and Mike Leah three-bet to 70,000 from the cutoff. Action was back on Phan and he started to fiddle with his chips. "I gotta count my stack. I don't know how much I have left" laughed Phan, as he counted out a stack worth 420,000. After a few seconds he said, "Alright. All in" and chunked some more chips in the middle. "I call" said Leah.

Phan tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}, well ahead against Leah's {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

The flop came {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Phan stayed ahead with a pair of jacks. The turn was the {8-Spades} and Leah picked up some more outs with a flush draw. The river was the {5-Clubs} and Phan held to double through.
