Duek Takes Massive Pot After Cracking Gerritse's Aces

Tyler Boyer

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Dirk Gerritse raised to 28,000 from under the gun, and when it folded to Daniel Zack on the button, he three-bet the pot. Michael Duek in the small blind called, and once the big blind folded, Gerritse four-bet the pot to 390,000. Zack gave it some thought before mucking his hand, but Duek made the call for his stack of 349,000.

Michael Duek: 8♥6♣5♥4♣ All in
Dirk Gerritse: A♠A♥9♥2♣

Gerritse had the best of it with his aces, but once the board ran out Q♣10♠7♦10♦9♦ Duek made a straight on the river, to more than double up and crack the aces of Gerritse.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu opened the action with a raise to 25,000 from the hijack, before Ren Lin three-bet to 90,000 from the cutoff. It folded back to Negreanu who four-bet to put Lin all in for his stack of 107,000, which Lin quickly called.

Ren Lin: A♥Q♦Q♣7♠ All in
Daniel Negreanu: A♠A♣8♣6♦

Once Negreanu turned over his hand, Lin flipped his hand over and told him, "I have Lady Gaga, you have no outs."

It seemed like Lin knew what was coming as the board ran out J♠Q♥9♦Q♠J♣ and Lin turned quad queens to secure the double up, and had a good laugh while scooping the pot saying "Lady Gaga always coming."

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Josh Arieh raised to 30,000 in the hijack, Scott Seiver flatted on the button, and George-Bogdan Ana defended in the big blind.

The flop came K♠8♠9♣ and Ana moved all in for 34,000, putting himself at risk. Arieh called and Seiver folded.

George-Bogdan Ana: K♣Q♦J♥9♦ All in
Josh Arieh: A♠K♥J♣5♣

Ana was in the lead with two pair but Arieh hit running clubs with the 6♣ turn and 8♣ river to hit a flush and send Ana packing.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action was heads up with 85,000 in the pot and the flop showing K♦3♦A♥.

Artur Martirosian led out with a pot-sized bet from the big blind, putting the action on Gergo Nagy on the button.

Nagy used two time banks before reluctantly sliding his cards to the dealer. Martirosian flipped over A♣Q♦J♣10♣ for top pair and a Broadway draw, and Nagy pumped his fist as he counted the rest of his stack.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Josh Arieh was first to act and raised to 30,000, which was called by Scott Seiver on the button.

The flop came 5♥7♦J♥ and Arieh check-called a bet of 45,000 from Seiver.

Both players checked the 2♥ turn and 5♦ river.

Seiver said, "That was the worst runout."

Arieh announced, "Sixes," and tabled 6♠6♦4♦3♥.

Seiver joked, "I guess they make worse runouts," and turned over J♠9♠7♥6♣ to take the pot with his two pair, jacks and sevens.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Heads-up action saw a substantial pot already building when Michael Duek bet 100,000 from early position on the 9♣A♥Q♠J♣ turn.

Namhyung Kim check-called from the big blind to the 10♦ river. Kim took a moment before moving all in for 115,000.

Duek then took some time of his own before sticking in the call. Kim showed A♣K♠Q♣4♠ for Broadway, earning the double up through Duek.
