Jean Robert Bellande

In a four-way pot on a flop of 7J4, action checked to Tomas Jozonis on the button and he bet 150,000. Benny Glaser called in the small blind and Jean-Robert Bellande and Daniel Negreanu folded behind him.

Glaser checked on the 4 turn and Jozonis sized up to 600,000 to bring a fold from the eight-time bracelet winner.

The stacked table also includes high-stakes pro Christoph Vogelsang and all-time money leader Bryn Kenney, leading a bystander to comment that it was a "fun table."

"'Fun table?!'" replied Bellande. "Anyone wanna trade?"

Moreira Runs Jack into Kings - Again

Level 16 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Andre Barroco Pereira Pocas Moreira
Andre Barroco Pereira Pocas Moreira

With a new crew on the Lagoon feature table, Andre Moreira opened for 120,000 from the hijack, Ryan Depaulo flatted from the cutoff, then James Caputo three-bet for 300,000 from the button.

After both blinds folded, Moreira moved in for 890,000 total. Depaulo glanced to his right and left as the three players were starting to experience déjà vu from the controversial hand they had during the previous level. He opted to send his 88 into the muck. Caputo made it clear he was calling, having Moreira covered.

Andre Moreira: JJAll in
James Caputo: KK

For the second time in two levels, Moreira had run pocket jacks into pocket kings and this time he was covered by his opponent. The board ran out A664Q and brought no help for Moreira, who reported to the rail, while Caputo chipped up to 4.5 million.

Level 16 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Hugo Machado opened to 125,000 in the hijack, finding a call from Daniel Thaller on the button.

The dealer delivered the A33 flop, and both players checked to see the 6 turn.

Another pair of checks led to the 2 river, where Machado led out 300,000. Thaller quickly sent his hand into the muck as the bet was announced, and Machado collected the pot.

Runout Denies Wang a Double

Level 16 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Jonathan Wang opened to 125,000 from early position before Jan-Peter Jachtmann made it 285,000 from the next seat over. Wang made it 600,000 and snap-called for the 1,700,000 he had behind when Jachtmann shoved.

Jonathan Wang: AAAll in
Jan-Peter Jachtmann: AK

The 543 flop meant Jachtman could chop the pot with a deuce. The 6 turn now meant a seven would also split the spoils. The 7 completed the board, giving both players a seven-high straight.

Chen Chipping Up

Level 16 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Hui Chen opened to 120,000 in the cutoff, with Alberto Speranzoni three-betting to 330,000 on the button.

Action folded back around to Chen, who called to the 658 flop. Both players declined to bet, and the Q turn hit the table.

Chen led out for 350,000, good enough to produce a fold from Speranzoni.
