Saechao Sends Barat Out With Aces

Level 22 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Kao Saechao
Kao Saechao

There was about 450,000 in the middle already on the {9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Spades} turn when Botond Barat bet 430,000.

Kao Saechao called and the river was the {3-Clubs}. Saechao led this time for 200,000 more, enough to cover Barat, and he called.

Barat had missed his straight and flush draws {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-} but still held a pair of queens. Saechao had that beat thought with {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and his pair of aces to send him a huge pot.

Segers Doubles Through Stefansky

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Action was picked up on the flop, between Joshua Stefansky in the small blind and Kristof Segers in the big blind.

The flop read {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Segers was all-in for his remaining 335,000 and Stefansky had called him.

Kristof Segers: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Joshua Stefansky: {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Segers needed to dodge a six and an eight to stay alive and the runout of {3-Clubs}{10-Clubs} gave it to him to stay alive and survive versus the start of day chip leader.

Ghodosi Versus Weisman

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Dylan Weisman called from early position and Hossein Ghodosi called from middle position, with the small blind calling as well and the big blind checking their option.

The flop came out {3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and action checked to Weisman who bet 20,000 which was only called by Ghodosi.

The turn of {q-Clubs} saw Weisman size up to 115,000 and Ghodosi called once more.

The river {3-Clubs} saw Weisman check and Ghodosi bet 175,000, sending Weisman into the tank. After some time he folded, ceding the pot to Ghodosi before asking him if he had hit a one outer, to which Ghodosi's response was a shrug.
