Nasir Check-Raises the Turn

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

When a player raised to 1,200 preflop, Playground Poker Club's most recent WPT champion Sheraz Nasir was one of two players to call and see a flop of {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}.

First to act, Nasir checked and was the only player to call his opponent's bet of 1,600.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and Nasir checked again. His opponent bet 3,500 and Nasir raised it up to 8,500. Shortly after, he scooped up the pot as the other player gave up his cards.

Gill Back on Top

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Harpreet Gill is back in the lead after putting on lots of pressure. With action at the flop and the cards reading {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, his one opponent bet 5,100 into the pot of about 18,000 already in the middle. Gill raised big to 28,000.

His opponent sat back in his chair with a sigh and spent a long time thinking. Eventually, the clock was called and counted down.

"I think I have you," he said. But as the clock came close to zero, he threw his cards in the muck.

Trudeau's Rockets

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Francis Trudeau opened preflop with a large raise to 2,100 and faced a three-bet from Mark Leslie to 6,300. Trudeau responded by pushing all in and Leslie made the call for his tournament life.

Trudeau: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Leslie: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Leslie groaned as Trudeau slapped his aces on the table. The dealer fanned a flop of {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs} to give Leslie outs to a straight. But the turn was the {j-Diamonds}, and the river was the {7-Diamonds}, giving all the chips to Trudeau and his aces.

Molson Shows It

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

As we walked past Will Molson, we noticed a heap of chips in the middle of the table. There was about 30,000 in the pot and the board was reading {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}.

Molson's opponent checked to him. He pushed all in and put his opponent to a tough decision. After a lot of thought, he folded, showing one card: {k-Hearts}.

Molson excitedly flipped over {j-Spades}{q-Spades} for a big bluff. He had flopped the world but didn't get there, but took down the pot anyway.

"You pulled it off!" another player said.
