Landreth Slowly Building

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The player in mid-position raised to 8,000 and the small blind three-bet to 28,000. Johnny Landreth, in the big blind, called, and the player in middle positon stuck around with a call as well.

The dealer fanned a flop of {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}, and the small blind checked. Landreth fired a bet of 28,000, to which both of his opponents folded.

"I had jacks, what did you have?," asked the played in mid-position. "King-queen," answered Landreth.

"So if I moved all in you would have folded?"

"Yes," replied Landreth.

Big Pot for Turner

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The button player raised to 11,000 and after some consideration, Jon Turner made the call.

The flop went {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Turner bet 13,000. His opponent raised it and Turner quickly called. Both players checked on the turn {8-Diamonds}.

The river fell a {a-Hearts} and Turner looked at his opponent's stack once more before betting 25,000. The latter called and mucked when Turner tabled {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for the flush.

Greer Doubles Up

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The player on the button raised to 8,000, and Garrett Greer, in the small blind, three-bet shoved for 25,000. The button quickly called, and both players tabled their cards.

Garrett Greer: {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Greer hit a pretty favorable flop of {4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{a-Spades}. The {j-Clubs} and {10-Diamonds} filled the board and Greer doubled up.

Greer was the runner-up of this event in 2016. He also bagged the chip lead on Day 1A but things hasn' been going his way during the first levels of Day 2. He will be looking to chip back up, and make another deep run.

Treccarichi's Check-Raise Takes It

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The player in early position raised to 7,500, got called by the small blind, and by Walter Treccarichi in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, and action checked to the original raiser who fired 9,000. The small blind folded, but Treccarichi took a few seconds of reflection, before check-raising to 23,000. The original raiser gave it some thought, but opted to let it go.
