Bensimhon Doubled Up

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Ben Bensimhon told the team how he had just doubled up:

"The under-the-gun player opened to 400, I flat with {q-}{9-} from the button. The flop was {3-}{3-}{9-}, he bet 700, I raised to 1,700 and he called. The turn was another {9-}. He check-called my bet of 2,500. The river came {6-}. He checked, I shoved for about 26,000 and he called with {k-}{k-}."

The flop came {4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Hearts}, Yin bet 1,000, Bouzgarrou raised to 2,400 and Yin called.

The turn brought them the {9-Clubs}, Yin checked and Bouzgarrou shoved all in for about 10,000. Yin tanked for a bit and then called.

Cheng-Wei Yin: {J-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Mohamed Bouzgarrou: {k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Bouzgarrou had flopped trip fives and Yin had two pair with the pocket jacks he had in his hand. The river completed the board with the {J-Diamonds} to give Yin the upper hand with a full house, jacks over fives, and the elimination to his name.

Neurauter Has Fours

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Hannes Neurauter raised to 600 from the under-the-gun position. The player in mid-position called.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{5-Spades}, Neurauter bet 500 and his opponent called.

The dealer turned the {q-Spades} around and now Neurauter bet 2,300 and his opponent called again.

The river completed the board with the {2-Spades}, Neurauter bet 6,800. That bet sent his opponent into the tank and he mumbled to himself for about three minutes. In the end, he folded. Neurauter showed {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.
