Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn of a board that read {5-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Tarun Gulati bet 25,000 and Dave Stefanski called.

The river was the {4-Clubs}. Stefanski checked. Gulati thought for quite a while, contemplating his options before checking it back.

Efron Holds For Double

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, Scott Efron bet 17,500. Tarun Gulati raised him all in to apply maximum pressure.

Efron put his sunglasses on his head and though it over before calling after about ten seconds.

Efron had the {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} while Gulati had the flush draw with the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. But the flush would not come in as the {6-Clubs} on the turn and the {q-Spades} on the river held the pot for Efron.
