Hachem Left Short by Becker

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Joe Hachem raised to 5,000 preflop and was called by Brandon Becker to his immediate left. The flop came {q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Hachem bet another 4,000.

Becker called, then called another bet of 6,500 from Hachem on the {k-Spades} turn. The river came the {10-Diamonds} and Hachem led out for 10,000.

Becker then raised to 25,000, sending Hachem into the tank. After nearly five minutes, Hachem slid his cards back to the dealer as Becker, joined by his Beanie Baby panda Bamboo, raked in the pot.

Tuchman Three-Bets and Smashes Flop

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
David Tuchman
David Tuchman

A player opened in early position to 4,600 and David Tuchman three-bet to 13,500 in the hijack. The table folded back around to the original raiser and he made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and once checked to Tuchman continued for 10,000. His opponent called quickly.

When the {8-Spades} hit the turn it was checked to Tuchman once again and he fired out 30,000 and stared his opponent down. The opponent eyed up Tuchman's stack who pushed his chips forward slightly to help him see his remaining stack of roughly 90,000 before he made the call.

The {k-Spades} landed on the river and after it was checked to Tuchman he paused for about 30 seconds deciding what to do. Eventually, Tuchman checked back and tabled {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for trip tens and his opponent mucked his hand.

Glantz Gets One Through

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Matt Glantz
Matt Glantz

Matt Glantz was in position in a heads-up pot on a board reading {8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} with approximately 95,000 already in the middle.

Glantz opponent threw out a hefty turn bet of 55,000 and Glantz called. The opponent slowed down and checked on the {q-Clubs} river and Glantz took a minute before betting 100,000 to put his opponent all-in. The opponent sheepishly slid his hand to the dealer.

Glantz showed a non-paint diamond in his hand and claimed he was bluffing, noting that the queen of clubs was a good river for him to make a move on.

A cameraman rushed over to capture the action but Blumstein decided to let it go.

"Nothing to see here," said Blumstein.
