Wilkins Jumps to the Top

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante
Matthew Wilkins
Matthew Wilkins

The last level has gone pretty well for Matthew Wilkins. Wilkins dipped a bit lower than he would have liked at the beginning of the day but since then his chip count has rocketed up.

In a hand against Marc Karam and Jeff Cormier, Wilkins flopped top two with nine-seven and got paid off on the river scooping a huge pot.

Wilkins has been running well during this World Cup of Cards. Wilkins ran deep in the Grand Prix Canada and then followed that up with a runner-up finish in the $1100 50/50 bounty for over $15,000.

Bicknell Hot Out of the Gate

Level 4 : 300/600, 600 ante

Kristen Bicknell has already saw a nice boost to her starting stack. Not long after Bicknell sat down, she dragged in a sizeable pot after her and her opponent flopped huge.

Bicknell picked up pocket queens and flopped a set on an ace-high board. Her opponent had flopped two-pair with ace-queen and Bicknell got some value from her hand on the river.

Kings Good for Dubreuil

Level 3 : 250/500, 500 ante

Seeing a {4-Spades}{q-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop, Michel Dubreuil fired a bet of 16,000 which was called by Hugo Dumoulin. Both players checked when the {q-Hearts} fell on the turn bringing the {10-Clubs} on the river.

Dumoulin bet 20,000 and Dubreuil called. Dumoulin didn't immediately table his hand so Dubreuil obliged turning over {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and dragged in the pot.

Deering Doubles Through Moss

Level 3 : 250/500, 500 ante

On the river of a {2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades} board with what looked to be about 50,000 in the pot, Timothy Deering moved all-in first to act and Frederic Moss sized up Deering's remaining chips and made the call.

Deering tabled {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, rivering a straight and Moss mucked, paying the all-in price of 32,150.
