Betito Scores Huge Double Knockout, Soars to 8.5 Million
Patrick Martorella opened to 175,000 from early position and was called by Liran Betito in middle position. Sandeep Pulusani shoved for 1,100,000 from the small blind and Martorella re-shoved for 1,600,000 total. Betito deliberated for well over a minute before finally making the call with plenty behind.
Sandeep Pulusani:
Patrick Martorella:
Liran Betito:
The flop came out ace-high, making Betito and his small rail go wild. His two opponents received no additional help and they were eliminated, with Betito scooping the entire pot worth nearly 4,500,000.

Wayachal Coolers Shrewsberry
With approximately 500,000 in the pot already on a turn, Sumeet Wayachal checked from the big blind to Clint Shrewsberry under the gun.
Shrewsberry bet 275,000, and was then check-raised to 900,000 by Wayachal. Shrewsberry then moved all in and Wayachal called, slightly covered by Shrewsberry in what suddenly became a nearly five million chip pot.
Sumeet Wayachal:
Clint Shrewsberry:
Shrewsberry's top pair, top kicker was crushed by Wayachal's two pair, and one of Shrewsberry's three needed outs didn't come on the river, as the dealer placed the on the table, leaving Shrewsberry on fumes, while Wayachal takes his place among the biggest stacks in the room.

Bahri and Olonoh Chop Three-Bet Pot with Nine-Seven Suited
Safwane Bahri opened to 140,000 from the cutoff and Adekunle Olonoh three-bet to 420,000 in the small blind. Bahri called.
The flop came and both players checked. On the turn, Olonoh checked to Bahri, who bet 235,000. Olonoh called.
On the river, both players checked and each player turned over nine-seven suited for a chop.
The rest of the table laughed while Bahri shouted "I knew he was bluffing!" and Olonoh replied "So were you!"
One member of the table couldn't believe it and exclaimed "Poker is so sick."
