Hansen Catches a Bluff

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Samuel Devers was in early position with 26,000 in front of him on a board of {7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Gus Hansen was thinking things over on the button and flicked in a couple of chips. Devers simply fired his hand into the muck with a "good hand" and Hansen stacked yet more chips, continuing a banner first level of Day 3 for the Dane.

Fritz Doubles Up Through Li

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

The board read {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs} and Chen Li had a bet of 23,000 in front of him and Lucas Fritz was all-in from the button for 82,700 in total. Li tanked for a while and ended up making the call with the bigger stack.

Lucas Fritz: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Chen Li: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

They had both flopped a pair of jacks but Fritz was ahead with the ace-kicker.

The river completed the board with the {4-Hearts} for Fritz to double up.

Pidun Leaves Friedman Short; Gagliano Claims the Glasses

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Perry Friedman
Perry Friedman

On the tail end of a pot between Thomer Pidun and Perry Friedman with the completed board showing {10-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, Friedman in the small blind check-called a bet of 26,500 by Pidun and mucked when he was shown the {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}.

Down to around 30,000, Friedman busted one hand later and handed his funky big glasses over to Michael Gagliano, who had dealt the final blow. Friedman has already handed similar glasses in previous events this summer and Gagliano snapped a quick picture with them for the group chat before proceeding with the next hand.
