Five-Bet Victory For Rutter

Stuart Rutter gets aggressive

Joshua Tieman opened to 50,000 from the cutoff only to have Stuart Rutter bump it to 155,000 from the button.

The blinds passed and with the action on Tieman he took his time before sliding in a stack of chips amounting to 330,000.

Rutter and Tieman exchanged some inaudible banter before Rutter loudly announced, "660,000!"

Tieman sat in his chair breathing deeply as over three minutes went by before he opted to fold his hand.

Set Over Set Win For Elpayaa

Stuart Rutter opened to 45,000 from under the gun and Brent Hanks bumped it 120,000 next to speak.

With the action on Joseph Elpayaa in the small blind he four-bet to 294,000 to force a quick fold from Rutter. Hanks took his time before making the call to see a {A-Spades}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop fall.

Both players checked, and when the turn landed the {Q-Diamonds} they again both checked it through to see the {9-Diamonds} land on the river.

Elpayaa checked for a third time before Hanks cut down a bet amounting to 430,000. Elpayaa quickly made the call and Hanks tabled his {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a rivered set.

However it would be Elpayaa's {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for a turned set that would take the pot down and take him to over 2,280,000 in chips as Hanks slips to below half his starting stack.
