Kurtzman Bluffs Hata and Weissman

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante
Eric Kurtzman
Eric Kurtzman

Picking up the action on the {8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} turn, Aymon Hata led for 7,000 in he big blind and was called by Joey Weissman in an early position. Eric Kurtzman also called and they headed to the {a-Hearts} river. Hata quickly checked and so did Weissman, which then prompted a bet worth 22,000 by Kurtzman.

Hata folded after very brief consideration and Weissman went deep into the tank. He then asked the one question most poker players are aware of: "Will you show if I fold?" The clock was called on him thereafter and Weissman folded. Kurtzman indeed showed as he flashed the {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a busted flush draw and got away with the bluff.

Brunson Correctly Makes Difficult Fold

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante
Doyle Brunson
Doyle Brunson

In a hand from the PokerGo livestream, Chau Nguyen limped for 500 under the gun with {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} and Doyle Brunson just called with {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}. Eliran Yamin called from the small blind with {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and then David Lolis checked {q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} out of the big blind.

The flop came {2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and Yamin quickly led for 1,000. Lolis folded right away, while Nguyen and “Texas Dolly” called.

When the {a-Spades} hit on the turn, Yamin checked and Brunson finally began the aggression with a big hand, betting out 3,500. Nguyen refused to go away and called.

The river {10-Hearts} was a cruel card for the 10-time bracelet winner. Nguyen, who picked up a full house, checked. Brunson bet 12,000 and was check-raised to 30,000.

Brunson sniffed out the monster hand and correctly, and found a fold. Instead of losing most of his stack, Doyle still had over 70,000 chips.

Perfilev Check-Raises Flop

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Scotter Clark raised in the cutoff to 18,000 and Dmitrii Perfilev defended the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and once checked to Clark threw in a bet of 3,000. Perfilev asked to see Clarks stack and after seeing Clark had about 15,000 total he put in a stack of 1,000 chips for a total of 22,000. Clark's cards instantly hit the muck.

Yuri Dzivielevski
Yuri Dzivielevski

Yuri Dzivielevski bet out on a board showing {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and found a call from one opponent and an all-in raise from another. Dzivielevski did not take long to commit the rest of his stack as well, and the second opponent mucked his hand.

Dzivielevski tabled {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a straight, while his opponent turned over {6-Spades}{5-Clubs} for an inferior straight and was drawing dead. The river {2-Hearts} completed the runout, and Dzivielevski more than doubled his stack.
