A Straight For Betts

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Everyone folded to Iaron Lightbourne on the button and he made it 80,000 to play. Russell Betts called from the big blind and Fraser Bellamy let his big blind slide.

A draw-heavy {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Spades} flop received checks from both players. The {J-Spades} turn saw Betts lead for 105,000, Lightbourne called once the dealer confirmed the bet amount. That was the last of the betting action because both players checked the {2-Clubs} river, Lightbourne mucking when he saw Betts' {Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.

Big Pot For Bellamy

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Andrew Seden opened to 85,000 from the first position, and Fraser Bellamy called in the small blind.

A flop reading {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} saw Bellamy check-call an 85,000 continuation bet from Seden. The {A-Spades} turn saw Bellamy check again, but when Seden bet 140,000, Bellamy check-raised to 360,000. Seden called.

Bellamy led for 610,000 on the {2-Clubs} river and Seden let his hand go.

Betts Shoves on Zhang

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Chi Zhang raised to 85,000 on the button and Russell Betts called from the small blind. Betts check-called a 90,000 bet on the {10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, before the dealer placed the {A-Hearts} onto the turn.

Betts checked, Zhang made it 180,000 to go, only to see Zhang check-raise all-in. Zhang asked for a count but mucked before the dealer could give him a figure.

Zhang On The Ropes

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Chi Zhang is down to 500,000 chips following a clash with Andrew Seden.

Seden opened to 115,000 and Zhang called from one seat to his left, in the cutoff. Iaron Lightbourne called on the button and Fraser Bellamy made up the difference in the big blind.

A flop reading {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds} was checked to Zhang and he made it 165,000, a bet that only Seden called. On the arrival of the {A-Diamonds} turn, Seden pushed all-in for 850,000 and after close to two minutes of thinking time, Zhang called.

Zhang: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Seden: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The {7-Hearts} completed the board and Zhang handed over the majority of his stack.

Chi Zhang's run in the WPT UK Main Event is over, busting at the hands of Fraser Bellamy.

Zhang moved all-in for around 500,000 chips with {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} under the gun and Bellamy called out of the small blind with {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The {3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} board failed to melt Bellamy's snowmen and Zhang became the sixth place finisher, a great achievement and one worth £40,000.

A Trio of Bellamy Versus Seden Hands

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Seden opened from the cutoff for 110,000 and Bellamy defended his big blind. The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{4-Hearts}, and Bellamy took it down with a 125,000 bet.

Bellamy opened to 120,000 in the cutoff and Seden defended his big blind. The action checked down to the river on {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and Bellamy won the pot with a pair of sixes.
