Micon Doubles

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Brian Micon
Brian Micon

From the hijack seat, Bryan Micon made a raise to 6,000. He was only called by the player in the big blind.

The dealer put out the flop of {K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and the big blind checked, only to see Micon bet 7,500, which he called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and this time the big blind decided to steal the betting lead, making it 20,000. Micon thought about it briefly, before making the call.

The river was the {j-Spades} and the big blind announced he was all in, Micon snap called and turned over his {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} for a full house, which was good to beat his opponents {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for just trips.

The palyer in the big blind had a covering stack so Micon "The Icon" doubled to over 100,000.

Makhija Takes A Nice Pot

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

A raise from the player in the hijack started a calling fest with Amit Makhija, in the cutoff, Ben Dobson, on the button, and the big blind calling to see a flop.

The big blind checked the {7-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs} flop and the hijack continued for 11,000. Makhija and Dobson called the bet.

The {j-Clubs} turn slowed the hijack down and he and Makhija both checked to Dobson who bet 24,000. Only Makhija called and we saw a {10-Hearts} river. Both Makhija and Dobson checked with Makhija showing {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for two pair and Dobson sent his cards into the muck.

We Have A New Chip Leader

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

We didn't see how this man came across all these new found chips, but it appears as if he has taken some from one of the previous chip leaders Alan Keating.

Our new chip leader's name is Patrick Kubat and he's above the 400k mark.
