Kyle Julius opened in middle position and got three bet by his neighbor the hijack. The cut off, button and both blinds folded and Julius made the call. Julius check and then called 900 on {4-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and checked again on the {3-Hearts} on the turn. His opponent bet 1,600 and Julius contemplated his options.

After a little bit of thinking he said "I don't like it, but I'm all in" before shoving his stack in. "I don't like it either, but I call" said his opponent who opened {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}. Julius was in front with his {A-Spades}{J-Clubs} and both would hit an ace on the river: {A-Clubs}. Julius shook hands with his former opponent and started stacking.

Ladouceur Caught

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

We missed the pre flop action but saw Marc-Andre Ladouceur bet 675 from the big blind on {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{A-Spades}. His opponent made the call, another one folded. Both players checked on the {10-Clubs} on the turn and Ladouceur bet 1,700 on the {10-Spades} river. After ten seconds of thinking his opponent called. "You got it" said Ladouceur who mucked when his opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. Ladouceur still has 4,850 left while his neighbor, Aaron Jones, has more than double that.

Bakes Back On The Rise

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

A middle position player limp-called David "Bakes" Baker's raise of 800 from the cutoff.

Both players checked the {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop. Baker's opponent check-called his 1,000 bet on the {q-Clubs} turn.

His opponent checked the {5-Clubs} river and Baker made it 1,800 to go. The player moved all in and Baker called for his remaining 2,200. Baker held {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} for a flopped set and his opponent showed {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for a pair of queens. Baker secured a needed double up.

520 Players Left

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

Amongst the latest casualties are British pro's Liv Boeree and James Dempsey who are chatting on the rail. The Pavilion Room is already empty for hours, the red section of the Brasilia is so too and Bronze is almost empty. That leaves just the Gold and Silver tables left to play at. It's going really fast today.
