Lee Increases Stack Without Showdown

Level 3 : 150/300, 30 ante

Japanese TV star Gakuto "GACKT" Oshiro min-raised to 600 and Ioannis Angelou-Konstas three-bet to 2,070 from the very next seat. They picked up two calls from "SandoSr" and Hwany "upDraft" Lee, and Oshiro made it four to the {j-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop. Angelou-Konstas' bet of 2,220 was called by all three opponents and they checked the {j-Spades} turn.

Lee then bet the {4-Diamonds} river for 13,298 and used the "tilt" emoji after all his opponents had mucked.

Liu Second Player to Bust

Level 2 : 125/250, 25 ante

The second player to hit the rail early on Day 1a was China's Leslie Liu. They lost the vast majority of their chips in a big clash with Russia's "ZeN1TP1TeR08" and then got the rest of it in with {6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} against {a-}{k-}. A six appeared on the turn but the river improved their opponent as the table closed in a heartbeat after the conclusion of the hand.

"xpf1" raised to 550 from under the gun and "SqueezeAngry" three-bet to 1,899 from the hijack. Uri "JimyT" Reichenstein four-bet to 4,935 from the button for the action to fold back to "SqueezeAngry" who took some time before making the call.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, "SqueezeAngry" check-called the 3,342 continuation-bet of Reichenstein.

"SqueezeAngry" checked again on the {k-Diamonds} on the turn. Reichenstein bet 6,775 and "SqueezeAngry" called.

The river completed the board with the {9-Diamonds} and "SqueezeAngry" checked for the last time. Reichenstein bet 14,605 and "SqueezeAngry" tanked. "SqueezeAngry" called after a while with the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} for two pair but Reichenstein held the {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} for the higher ones to scoop the pot.

"juco" Wins With Aces vs Two Kings

Level 2 : 125/250, 25 ante
juco scores first knockout
juco scores first knockout

The action was already brewing for a while on the table and it all escalated in a spectacular three-way all-in right before the table broke when "juco" and "Bostero247" got their chips in preflop. Christian Rudolph looked them up with the superior stack and three premium pocket pairs appeared in the showdown.

"Bostero247": {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
"juco": {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Christian Rudolph: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The {q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop gave Rudolph some back door outs and that hope garnered more equity on the {j-Hearts} turn. However, the {6-Clubs} river was a blank and "juco" scored a huge triple up.
