Maue Leads the Turn

Josh Noy

Level 34 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Bernhard Binder opened to 8,000,000 in the cutoff with A♥3♣, and Leonard Maue made the call holding K♥Q♣ in the small blind.

Maue checked the 8♥5♣K♣ flop, and Binder checked back to see the 9♦ turn.

After taking some time, Maue led out for 14,000,000. That produced a quick fold from Binder, and Maue collected the pot.

Level 34 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Bernhard Binder opened to 8,000,000 from under the gun, and Belarmino De Souza three-bet to 12,000,000 in the cutoff. That represented most of De Souza's stack, which he called off when Binder stuck in a four-bet.

Belarmino De Souza: Q♠J♠ All in
Bernhard Binder: A♥3♥

De Souza reacted to his rail as he caught a queen on the 6♥4♦Q♦7♠4♥ runout, earning a quick double through Binder.

Terrance Reid raised to 8,000,000 on the button with 7♠7♣ and Eric Wasserson three-bet to 21,000,000 in the small blind. Benny Glaser then four-bet jammed for 89,500,000 in the big blind and Reid folded.

Despite having aces, Wasserson asked for a count and went deep in the tank before calling, leading to some criticism from the commentators.

Benny Glaser: A♦Q♥ All in
Eric Wasserson: A♣A♥

Glaser had run into aces and didn't get any help as the board ran out 2♦2♣9♥7♦9♣ to mark the eight-time bracelet winner's elimination.

Glaser Gets a Freeroll

Josh Noy

Level 34 : Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante

Eric Wasserson opened to 8,000,000 in the hijack, and Benny Glaser quickly moved all in from the cutoff. Terrance Reid shoved his larger stack in the big blind, and Wasserson got out of the way.

Benny Glaser: A♣Q♠ All in
Terrance Reid: A♦Q♦

Both players turned over the same hand, with Glaser at risk. The 5♣8♠4♠ flop gave Glaser a backdoor flush draw, which got closer to completion on the 9♠ turn.

Reid smiled as the players waited for the river card, where Glaser's freeroll narrowly missed as the 4♣ was flipped over. That left both players chopping the pot, as Reid let out a sigh of relief.
