Gorodinsky Takes It Down on the Turn

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Paul Volpe opened with a raise under the gun and Mike Gorodinsky raised next to act. Action folded around to the blinds where Dylan Linde called and Volpe called as well.

The flop was {K-Spades}{J-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and action checked to Volpe who bet. Gorodinsky and Linde both called.

On the {K-Diamonds} turn, action checked to Gorodinsky. This time he bet, but found no callers and that allowed him to take down the pot.

Yakovenko Bet-Folds Twice

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Nikolai Yakovenko opened under the gun and got action from Steve Chanthabouasy a couple of seats over. They checked the flop to a board of {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Yakovenko bet and Chanthabouasy tanked briefly then announced a raise. Yakovenko mucked.

The next hand, Jonathan Depa opened button and called a three-bet from Yakovenko. The flop came {j-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Yakovenko bet. Again, he folded to a raise, dropping below 300,000 in the process.

Nut-Nut Sends Gronning into the Danger Zone

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Robert Mizrachi opened and was called by Lars Gronning and Jonathan Depa in the blinds.

The flop was {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and action checked to Mizrachi on the flop and he bet. Gronning raised which earned a fold from Depa. Mizrachi just called.

The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and Gronning led out with a bet. Mizrachi raised and Gronning thought for a bit before calling.

On the {5-Clubs} river, Gronning just check-called a bet from Mizrachi.

"Nut-nut," Mizrachi said, showing {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{A-Clubs} for quads and the nut low. Gronning could only produce {A-}{3-}{K-}{K-} for the nut low and a pair of kings as well, so he collected only one quarter of the pot.

White and Miaso Chop a Big One

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Eli Elezra limped preflop as did Talon White, and the blinds came along for the minimum to {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, which checked through. The turn was the {a-Spades} and everyone put in two bets. It looked like Eli Elezra fired initially and got called twice before Miaso check-raised. The river was a {q-Spades} and Miaso bet. White raised and Miaso thought for about a minute before calling.

Both players held the nuts. Miaso's {8-Spades}{2-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} was a nut low and White had {k-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for the nut flush.

Volpe Scoops Ramos

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

There was a multitude of bets in front of each player on the river between Paul Volpe and Felipe Ramos. The board showed {3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Volpe led out with yet another bet. Ramos thought for a bit before eventually deciding to call.

"Straight," Volpe said, showing {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the nut straight. Ramos shook his head in dismay and mucked as the monster pot was sent over to Volpe, pushing him to nearly 600,000 chips.

Gronning and Bohlman Need Heat

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Rob Mizrachi opened for a raise under the gun and Nikolai Yakovenko reraised on his left. Lars Gronning called in the small blind and it went three ways to {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. Yakovenko bet and the others called. The {j-Diamonds} checked around and the river was a {3-Hearts}. Gronning bet and Mizrachi raised. Yakovenko cold-called and Gronning folded.

Mizrachi showed {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} for jacks full. Yakovenko mucked {a-}{3-} face up and his other cards face down.

In the next hand, Mizrachi won another pot off Scott Bohlman betting river on {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} after the turn checked through. Bohlman now has crumbs as well.

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Lars Gronning
Lars Gronning

Lars Gronning raised early and Steve Chanthabouasy called in the big blind. It came {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Gronning bet. Chanthabouasy put him all in for 5,000 more and Gronning called.

Lars Gronning: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Steve Chanthabouasy: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

Chanthabouasy had outflopped his foe and neither the {4-Clubs} nor the {5-Spades} helped Gronning.
