Dzivielevski Gets Aces to Eliminate One

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

A middle position player opened to 8,000 and the next player to act flat-called. The action folded to Yuri Dzivielevski in the big blind, who three-bet to 40,000.

The initial opener folded while the flat-caller snap-back-jammed a stack of about 200,000. Dzivielevski quickly called with the opponent covered.

Opponent: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Yuri Dzivielevski: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

The opponent had run into it as Dzivielevski held the best possible starting hand. The board ran out {2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} to lock up the pot for Dzivielevski and send the opponent to the rail.

Koenig Rivers Trip Queens vs. Sanchez's Pocket Aces

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In what was already a massive pot on a {6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{4-Clubs} board, the {q-Diamonds} on the river had William Koenig move all-in on the river from middle position.

Marco Sanchez, who covered but only had about 45,000 more chips behind, deliberated from the cutoff for a couple minutes before finally calling with his {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}.

Unfortunately for the California native, Koenig cracked his aces on the river, with his {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} good for trip queens and the 270,000-chip pot.

Dollins' Pair Good for Double Up

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action was picked up with 90,000 already in the pot and a board of {2-}{3-}{j-}{8-}{k-}. Alex Visbisky had moved all in from middle position. Michael Dollins, in the big blind, had the effective stack of 114,500 and was now faced with a decision to play for all of them. The floor had already been called for a clock. As the floor began his countdown from five, Dollins made the last second call.

Michael Dollins: {k-}{q-}
Alex Visbisky: {q-}{10-}

Dollins' pair of kings on the river was good enough for the pot, and the double up.

Veksler Doesn't Show

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Before blinds went up, Pavlo Veksler opened to 7,000 from the cutoff and Anthony Hu three-bet to 28,000 from the small blind. The big blind tank-folded and Veksler four-bet to 53,000. Hu made the call.

Hu checked on the flop of {5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and called a continuation bet of 37,000 from Veksler. Hu checked again on the {8-Diamonds} turn and Veksler quickly checked back.

Hu checked again on the {k-Spades} river and Veksler took a moment before putting out a stack of green 25,000-chips to put his opponent all-in. Hu fidgeted around in his chair and gave his cards a flick before tossing them into the muck.

Hu inquired what Veksler had but the Ukrainian did not give up any information.

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Maxime Jaafar opened to 7,500 from middle position. Action folded to Shane Burks in the big blind, who moved all in with about 50,000 behind. After getting the count, Jaafar made the call, with his opponent covered.

Shane Burks: {10-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Maxime Jaafar: {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

Burks was behind, but help arrived on the {6-Spades}{8-Spades}{a-Spades} flop, giving him top pair. That help was quickly mitigated by the {3-Diamonds} turn, giving Jaafar a set and leaving Burks drawing thin. The {2-Clubs} river completed the board, giving Jaafar the pot and sending Burks to the rail.
