Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Christian Harder
Christian Harder

In a four-way raised pot, the flop showed {5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts} when Christian Harder checked from the small blind, followed by his three opponents.

The turn fell the {10-Clubs} and Harder checked again. The big blind bet 11,000 and the hijack called while the third player got out of the way. Harder considered it for some time before calling.

The river was the {8-Diamonds} and Harder shoved for 28,500. The big blind folded and the hijack tanked for two minutes before sending a chip for the call.

Harder tabled {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades} for straight and his opponent mucked his hand. Harder, who late registered this event, has now more than tripled his starting stack.

Goyal Busts Deeb

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Shaun Deeb was all in preflop on the button for a remaning stack worth less than 4,000 and facing the big blind and Tarun Goyal in the cutoff who were playing the side pot.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and the two active players checked to go see a {5-Spades} on the turn. The big blind led out for 6,000 and Goyal called.

The river fell the {k-Clubs} and the big blind checked to Goyal who bet 16,000, putting him into a decision. After some time, the big blind called with {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for the flush but only to see {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for the full house. Deeb, who held {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for the lower flush, made his way to the exit while Goyal scooped the pot.
