Alain Busts First Hand

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The player under the gun announced a limp in the dark, and so did the player from one seat over. Kevin Legerski raised to 5,500 in the hijack and Adrien Alain made the call in the cutoff. The under the gun player folded and the second limper called.

The flop came {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and Allain called a continuation bet from Legerski worth 6,300 while the third player folded.

Things heated on the turn {5-Spades} when Allain moved all in after Legerski checked. The latter snap-called and Allain tabled {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a flush and a straight draw while Legerski held {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} for a set of sevens. The river bricked and Allain got eliminated right after he took a seat in this event.

The action started with Justin Liberto who bet 2,100 on the button and it was called by Robert Cheung in the small blind, followed by the big blind.

{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} appeared on the flop and Liberto continued for 3,200 after his opponents checked. Only Cheung made the call. The turn brought the {6-Hearts} and this time Cheung check-called for 8,700.

When the river fell a {k-Hearts}, Cheung checked once more before facing a bet of 50,000 from Liberto, putting his remaining stack of 43,000 at risk. Cheung went deep into the tank and a player called the clock. Right before the end of the 30-second, Cheung announced "call" and Liberto tabled {5-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Cheung turned over {j-Spades}{9-Spades} and doubled up on Liberto with two pair.
