Trigg Has McAulay Out-Kicked

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

A raise to 525 from Craig McCorkell under the gun was met with calls from Richard Trigg on the button and Daniel McAulay in the big blind. All three players checked their option on the {4-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} flop and did the same on the {2-Hearts} turn. McAulay led for 1,000 on the {K-Spades} river, folding out McCorkell, but Trigg looked him up.

McAulay turned over {K-}{Q-} and lost to Trigg's {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

Mateos Mauls Sion

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Adrian Mateos
Adrian Mateos

Elior Sion raised to 600 from under the gun and sparked a flurry of callers to his left. Billy Chattaway in the hijack, Adrian Mateos on the button, Senh Ung in the small blind and Jason Wheeler in the big blind made for a five-way contested pot.

Everyone checked to Mateos on the {2-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop, he bet 2,000 and only Sion called. Another five, the {5-Clubs} landed on the turn and Sion checked to Mateos, and the dangerous Spaniard bet 5,000. Again, Sion called.

The fifth and final community card was the {J-Diamonds} and Sion checked once more. Mateos placed three 5,000 chips in front of him, and Sion called that 15,000 only to be shown {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for trip fives a hand he couldn't beat, leaving Mateos to climb to 77,000.

Jordon Catches a Lucky Break

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

We said earlier that Terry Jordon plays an unorthodox style and he's proved us correct. We just caught him all-in for his last 10,500 chips from the small blind with {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} on a {J-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop versus the {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} of Sergio Aido. A {6-Hearts} on the turn propelled Jordon into the lead and the {A-Clubs} river kept him there.

Chattaway Four-Bets

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

American grinder, Jason Wheeler, raised to 750 from the cutoff and faced some resistance in the shape of Stacy Coore on the button who three-bet to 2,250. The small blind mucked, but Chattaway stuck in a four-bet to 5,450. Wheeler quickly folded, and Coore followed suit, showing the {A-Hearts} as he did so. Chattaway responded by showing the {A-Diamonds} as he scooped the pot.

How Deadman Got His Chips

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

We've been chatting with Terry Jordon and Simon Deadman and discovered how the latter accumulated his big stack, which involved the former losing most of his chips.

Jordon informed us that he got his chips in with {6-}{6-} verus Deadman's {J-}{J-} on a {J-}{8-}{6-}{8-} board to lose all but 10,000 chips, which then went into the middle in the hand against Sergio Aido that we caught.

Must be nice to be Deadman!

Trigg Represent a Flush

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Richard Trigg is up to 64,000 chips following a short but profitable hand versus Kuljinder Sidhu and David Lopez.

It was Trigg who opened the betting, raising to 1,000 from early position and being called by Lopez in the cutoff and then being raised by Sidhu in the small blind, Sidhu's raise being to 2,350. Both Trigg and Lopez called the squeeze and the pot started to build.

A flop reading {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Hearts} was checked around by all three players, with Sidhu also checking the arrival of the {9-Hearts} turn. Trigg took a stab at the pot with a 3,500 bet and it was enough to fold out both of his opponents, leaving him to rake in the pot.

Daniel Merrilees Takes on Jordon

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

The action passed to Daniel Merrilees in the hijack and he min-raised to 800. A couple of folds later and it was Terry Jordon's turn to act and he three-bet to 2,500. Merrilees called and the dealer spread the {6-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop and both players checked. Jordon checked the {3-Diamonds} turn, Merrilees bet 3,500 and Jordon folded, flipping over the {A-Spades} as he did so.
