Lapossie Pressure

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

Matthew Lapossie has been very active these last two levels, almost every time we pass his table he is involved in a big pot with a mound of chips in the middle and betting on every street. In a hand we just caught on the turn Lapossie was in position and had bet 30,000 on a board reading {j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. His opponent called and the river card brought the {3-Diamonds}.

Lapossie’s opponent now led out for 80,000 with less than 40,000 behind. Lapossie gave a puzzled look and moved all in. His opponent quicky and sheepishly threw his hand away.

Dempsey Catches a Lucky Break

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

James Dempsey seemed out of luck and had one foot out of the door a few minutes ago, but now he's got a little more breathing room after catching a lucky break to bust a player and boost his stack to 80,000.

Dempsey committed his stack from the cutoff with what turned out to be {7-Spades}{6-Spades} and the cutoff instantly called with {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. Dempsey slipped further behind on the {2-Spades}{A-Hearts}{K-Spades} flop, then was propelled into the lead when he completed his flush on the {10-Spades} turn. The {3-Clubs} was the river card and Dempsey received a boost to 80,000 while his opponent got an extended dinner break.
