Hegele Loses Some

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Robin Hegele faced a raise to 1,500 by Jackson Laskey and three-bet to 5,000 from one seat over. William Harder called out of the small blind and Frank Williams made it 15,000 to go from the big blind. Laskey folded and Hegele called, as did Harder. All three players checked the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop and the {7-Spades} turn, the {8-Hearts} fell on the river and Harder bet 12,000. Williams folded and Hegele needed two minutes to come to the same conclusion.

"You had aces? Really? Such a sick spot," the 27th place finisher of the 2017 WSOP Main Event said before heading into the first break of the day.

McKeehen Wins a Small Pot

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante
Joe McKeehen
Joe McKeehen

Joe McKeehen has been chipping up nicely in the first level of Day 2ab. McKeehen raised from middle position to 1,500 and a player in late position called, as did the player on the big blind.

McKeehen continued on the {4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop with a bet of 1,800 and that was enough to take down the pot.

Seth Davies was on one of the tables that broke and is now on the direct left of McKeehen.

Chait Down and Up

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

The player in late position raised to 1,300 and was called by the players in the hijack, button, Craig Chait in the small blind and the big blind.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Chait bet 4,000. Everyone but the button folded.

The turn brought them the {4-Diamonds}, Chait bet 6,000.

"Not afraid of the flush?" The player on the button asked Chait.

"No!" replied Chait with a smile.

The player on the button raised to 16,000. Chait looked at his cards again and then decided to call.

The {4-Clubs} on the river completed the board and Chait checked. So did his opponent. Chait's opponent tabled {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the turned flush and Chait glanced at his cards once more and then mucked them.

Addamo's Run Halted

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Five-way to the {4-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{A-Spades} flop, Michael Addamo bet 1,700 sitting in a middle position. Only Rob Salaburu called out of the small blind and they saw the {4-Clubs} hit the felt. Addamo barrelled for 3,700 and Salaburu snap-called.

The river was the {3-Spades} and Salaburu checked to Addamo again. Addamo took almost all of his chips and fired 15,800, leaving himself with just 100. Salaburu again snapped him off. Addamo showed {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a bluff and Salaburu raked in the pot with {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.

Addamo was ante all-in on the next hand that saw six other players join the flop for 1,300. The board read {3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Salaburu raised a bet of 2,200 on the turn, making it 10,500. He was called by the initial bettor who checked the river. Salaburu fired 14,000 but folded when he faced a min-raise. While Addamo peeled pocket sevens, he couldn't beat pocket fours and left the tournament just before the first break of the day.
