Paul Doubles Through Santoni

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

There was an all-in and call between the two players in the blinds when the board read {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Spades}{a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. Paul was sitting in the small blind and Polo Santoni in the big blind. Paul had 1,095,000 behind and Santoni had more.

Paul showed {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} for full house, aces over kings, and that was more than enough to beat the {a-Spades}{7-Clubs} of Santoni. Santoni was left behind with 550,000 after losing this hand.

Chop Pot for the Kings

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

NFJM raised to 85,000 from the hijack and was called by Joseph Nassar on the button. Rony Halimi, in the small blind, shoved all-in. NFJM called and Nassar folded.

NFJM: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Rony Halimi: {K-Spades}{k-Clubs}

The flop came {10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} which gave NFJM the chance to hit a runner-runner flush. The turn brought them the {A-Diamonds}, which was one card closer to the flush for a win for NFJM. Halimi was clenching his hands, trying to sort of pray for no diamonds on the river. The dealer burned a card and turned the {J-Clubs} around to complete the board for a chopped pot.

NFJM Doubles Through TMV

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

NFJM completed the small blind and TMV shoved all in from the big blind for more than NFJM's stack. NFJM thought about it for a bit and then called with the smaller stack.

NFJM: {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
TMV: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} to give NFJM the higher pair on the turn and the double-up. After the dealer counted the stack, he confirmed NFJM had 1,080,000 which left TMV with 830,000 behind.

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

Rony Halimi raised to 115,000 from late position and was called by Polo Santoni in the small blind and NFJM in the big blind.

They all checked through the {2-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{k-Spades} on the flop to the {j-Hearts} on the turn. Santoni checked, NFJM bet 125,000. Halimi asked how much it was, the dealer confirmed. Halimi called, Santoni folded.

The {K-Diamonds} on the river completed the board, after some careful consideration NFJM bet 300,000. Halimi tanked. He had a look at NFJM's stack.

"How much you have left?" Halimi asked NFJM. NFJM showed Halimi his stack. It was around 1,000,000.

Halimi tanked for a bit longer, in total for about 4 minutes and then announced a raise to 1,000,000. Now it was NFJM's turn to tank. After about three minutes, he folded.
