The board read {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and an opponent from the big blind position bet 1,100 into a pot around 2,600. Jay Farber raised to 3,500 and his opponent thought for a brief moment before making the fold.

Clarke Wins Bounty

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante
Patrick Clarke
Patrick Clarke

Before the flop, Martha Weisenburger raised and two players called — Gershon Distenfeld from position and Patrick Clarke from the big blind.

There was action following the {j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop. Following checks from Clarke and Weisenburger, Distenfeld bet 525. Clarke then raised it to 2,350, which pushed out Weisenburger but not Distenfeld who called.

The {10-Diamonds} turn saw both players check and the {7-Clubs} completed the board. Clarke moved all in and Distenfeld made a quick call. Clarke showed a flush with {q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, and after a count it was confirmed that he covered Distenfeld, with Clarke taking his bounty chip as well as the pot.

There was a three-way all-in just now with all the chips going in preflop. Stephen Kenna was the short stack, Sam Warren was also at risk, and Rami Slaieh had both players covered.

Stephen Kenna: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Samuel Warren: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Rami Slaieh {8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The dealer laid out {6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} on the board and Kenna took the main pot, while Warren won the side.

Moshe Gets Another Bounty

Level 4 : 75/150, 25 ante
Asi Moshe
Asi Moshe

Asi Moshe is off to a flying start today. The bracelet winner has already accrued three bounty chips and play has only just entered Level 4.

The most recent one was in a hand that had reached a {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} board, at which point Moshe bet enough to put his opponent all in and was called. Moshe had {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and that turned out to be enough against his opponent's {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.
