Jazayeri Fades The Spades

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Sean Jazayeri had been on a little downswing over the past few levels but just knocked out a short stack. He was all in with pocket queens versus {A-Spades}{J-} and the {K-Spades}{J-Spades}{X-Spades} flop gave the opponent middle pair and the nut flush draw. Both turn and river bricked and Jazayeri claimed the pot.

Wrong Timing For Failla

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

On the {9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop, Will "The Thrill" Failla moved all in and was snap called by an opponent for his last 6,375 chips. When the opponent turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, Failla said "Oh, then I have outs," before revealing {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. The {2-Clubs} turn provided a few more outs but the {2-Hearts} river was no good since it gave the opponent a flush.

Sowers Knocks Out Jiang

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

There was a raise to 800 and a call, Chengce Jiang three-bet to 5,200 with 13,000 behind and Mike Sowers moved all in with the superior stack. Jiang called with the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and had a flip versus {A-Spades}{K-Spades} to see his stack shrink to zero after a king high board.

Farrell Squeezes Trigger With the Safety On

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

There was an open for 975 from early position and an elderly gentleman put in the calling chips. Niall Farrell was next to act and he put the squeeze on with a raise to 3,000.

It folded back round to the original raiser and he looked as if he was agonising over what to do. After a couple of minutes thought he four-bet to 7,500. The older player quickly mucked and Farrell wasn’t falling for it, mucking his cards too.

Asked by the four-bettor what he had, Farrell responded, “I had a pair, I was calling a shove”

Doing the Rounds Once More

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

Back to Average for Jiang

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ever since Chengce Jiang lost a big hand to Mike Sowers his fortunes seem to have gone in reverse.

The player who once sat atop the leader board and had his table baffled at the hands he was making is now sitting on an average stack and no longer has the leverage or fear factor he previously had. It will be a struggle for Jiang to get that momentum going again.
