Mermelstein Calls Correctly Against Katz

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On the river of a {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades} board, Aaron Katz bet 150,000 and that sent Aaron Mermelstein into the tank. While enjoying a massage, Mermelstein said "one second please" as he studied the board one more time with the shot clock ticking. Ultimately, Mermelstein made the call and Katz announced "small pair, seven" without turning over his cards.

The {7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a straight by Mermelstein were revealed and Katz tossed his cards into the muck.

Chidwick and Galfond Meet Again

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Phil Galfond and Stephen Chidwick had battled several times on previous occasions and both were involved once more. With around 140,000 in the pot to the {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} river, Galfond opted to check with fewer than 20 big blinds behind.

Chidwick made it 125,000 to go and Galfond mulled it over for a short while before opting to fold.

Lehr Knocks Out Koliakoudakis

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With already around 200,000 in the pot on a {j-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop, Keith Lehr bet enough in early position to cover Roussos Koliakoudakis' stack on the button. Koliakoudakis called.

Roussos Koliakoudakis: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Keith Lehr: {j-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts}

The {a-Diamonds} turn improved Koliakoudakis to a set, but the {8-Spades} spiked the river to give Lehr the nuts and send Koliakoudakis to the rail.

"Which one did you like more? Turn or river?" Ben Lamb asked at the conclusion of the hand, after he had wandered over to see the hand play out.

"The ri-ver," Lehr slowly mouthed as he collected the pot.

Williams Surpasses a Million

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Allan Le three-bet the pot to 90,000 out of the big blind and then faced the repot to 365,000 by David Williams in the cutoff. Back on Le, he used a long portion of his shot clock before sending the cards into the muck. By scooping the pot, Williams leaped to a seven-figure stack.

One table over, Ian Bradley survived an all-in showdown against Andriy Lyubovetskiy when his {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} turned trips fives with the cards of his opponent already in the muck.

Aces for Wantman and Ly

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

After an under-the-gun raise to 30,000, Matthew Wantman raised to 105,000 in middle position, and Tommy Ly potted to 360,000 in the cutoff. Action folded back to Wantman who put in all his chips and was called.

Matthew Wantman: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Tommy Ly: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for a chop, while Ly gave a celebratory clap of his hands.

"Did you think you won?" Wantman asked. "Why'd you think you won?"

"I got excited in the moment," Ly replied, as they each took their stacks back and picked up a few chips in the chop.

Negreanu Chips Up With Aces; Maksimov Jams Up Stack

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Daniel Negreanu
Daniel Negreanu

Three ways to the {k-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, Artem Maksimov checked and Daniel Negreanu bet 30,000. [Removed:508] raised to 80,000 in order to force out Maksimov and Negreanu called after very brief consideration.

After the {4-Spades} turn, Negreanu check-called for another 100,000 and they checked the {k-Diamonds} on the river. "Aces," Negreanu declared and tabled the {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}.

That was good enough to win the pot as Crivello mucked while Maksimov exclaimed "every time" while glancing at table neighbour Negreanu.

One hand later, Duarte Baptista opened to 25,000 and Daniel Chuprun called. Maksimov three-bet to 110,000 in the small blind and received two calls. The {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Spades} flop brought the open-shove by Maksimov for 241,000 and he won the pot uncontested.

Triple Up for Katz; Napierala No More

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Aaron Katz
Aaron Katz

In a preflop contest, Jared Bleznick pushed forward a stack of T-25,000 chips and that was followed by the all-in alls of Blake Napierala and Aaron Katz with the latter being the shortest stack.

Aaron Katz: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Blake Napierala: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Jared Bleznick: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

"I am the favourite," Bleznick exclaimed when all cards were turned over. That wasn't the case anymore after the {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, which gave Napierala the flush draw. Even more outs for Napierala came thanks to the {10-Diamonds} turn but he bricked them all on the blank {2-Hearts} river.

Katz tripled up up while Napierala doubled in the side pot for 22,000 against Bleznick only to then bow out in the very next hand.

Cochrane Leaves Hendrix Short; Lamb Finishes the Job

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Adam Hendrix
Adam Hendrix

With around 300,000 in the middle on a {6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop, Adam Hendrix shoved the small blind and Gavin Cochrane called on the button for his remaining 229,000 chips.

Gavin Cochrane: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Adam Hendrix: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{x-}

The {4-Clubs} and {q-Spades} completed the board and Cochrane claimed the sizable pot, leaving Hendrix with about 60,000.

On the next hand, Adam Hendrix raised to 35,000 on the button, Ben Lamb raised in the big blind, and Hendrix called for his remaining stack.

Adam Hendrix: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Ben Lamb: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} to eliminate Hendrix, while Lamb added to his stack.
