Massive Pot for Foutty; Double Elimination

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Stephen Foutty
Stephen Foutty

As relayed to PokerNews by Stephen Foutty: a player raised under the gun to 16,000 and Stephen Foutty called in the cutoff before the big blind defended.

On the flop of {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, all three players ended up all-in and Foutty had both of them covered.

Big Blind: {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Under-the-gun Player: {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Stephen Foutty: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

All three players caught a piece but Foutty got the best of it, flopping top set. The turn {3-Spades} and river {a-Spades} kept the set in the lead and Foutty knocked both players out at the same time to get a healthy chipstack.

Rezaei Sends Del Vecchio to the Payout Desk

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On the river with over 240,000 in the middle the board read {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Mike Del Vecchio checked to Daniel Rezaei who announced all-in having Del Vecchio covered.

Del Vecchio tanked for about 40 seconds before deciding to make the call.

Rezaei instantly said, "Hearts," as he tabled {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush and Del Vecchio tabled {k-Spades}{q-Spades} as he stood up from the table.

Madeira Gets Maximum

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The player in the hijack raised to 16,000, Viet Vo called on the button and Pedro Madeira defended the big blind.

On the flop of {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades} Madeira checked to the hijack player who fired in a bet of 22,000 and both Vo and Madeira called.

The turn was the {j-Spades} and all three players checked. On the {5-Clubs} river Madeira checked once more to the player in the hijack who announced he was all in. Vo thought about it for a while before letting it go and Madeira snap-called.

The player in the hijack tabled {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Madeira showed the {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a full house and a full double up.

The Chainsaw Report is Back!

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Unfiltered. Raw. Weekly. Poker pro Allen Kessler, arguably one of the most accomplished players in the world yet to win a WSOP bracelet, is back with his weekly series.

The first week of the series hasn't been kind to 'The Chainsaw', who is empty-handed so far and has only bagged once. Will Kessler finally get the monkey off his back in 2021 and end the bracelet draught?
