Cox Makes the Call on Weisman

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Dylan Weisman
Dylan Weisman

Pot-Limit Omaha

In a three-way pot with already around 150,000 in the pot, the flop read {j-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} when Michael Cox checked in the big blind, and so did Dylan Weisman under the gun and Samuel Spiwak next to him.

The turn brought the {3-Diamonds} and Cox led out for 60,000, which was called by Weisman and Spiwak.

The {10-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and Cox checked to Weisman who bet 150,000. Spiwak quickly folded but Cox took a minute and called, showing {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for the flush. Weisman sent his cards into the muck, only showing a {j-Clubs}.

Schwarmann Shoves in the Dark

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was picked up with around 60,000 already in the pot and a board reading {7-Spades}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} on the felt. Nick Schwarmann had just bet 125,000 from the small blind. His opponent, Lawrence Brandt, made the call from across the table.

"You call? You're crazy," Schwarmann said, "I shove in the dark," moving all in without seeing the turn. Brandt made the call in the dark as well, and the two were racing, with Brandt at risk.

Lawrence Brandt: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}
Nick Schwarmann: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Brandt had the best of it with the jack high straight, and was roughly a 2:1 favorite to double up against Schwarmann's set. That was until the {9-Clubs} turn and {8-Hearts} river completely counterfeited his hand, putting a jack high straight on the board, and resulting in a chopped pot.

"I'm telling you guys, you can't beat me!" Schwarmann told the table.

Schwarmann Sends Wood Out

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Christopher Wood shoved on the button for his last 60,000 and Matthew O'Donnell folded in the small blind to Nick Schwarmann who quickly called:

Christopher Wood: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Nick Schwarmann: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

The flop gave good hopes to Wood for a double up with {2-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, but a {a-Spades} came on the turn and Wood was officialy eliminated after the {5-Spades} completed the board.

Pulusani Scores Knockout with Top Pair

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was joined on the river with nearly 200,000 already in the middle. The board read {5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Sandeep Pulusani, in the small blind, checked over to Zak Lawson who jammed with an effective stack of around 200,000. Pulusani went deep into the tank, before emerging with a call.

"Good call." Lawson said immediately as the two tabled their hands.

Zak Lawson: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Sandeep Pulusani: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Pulusani's pair of jacks was best, and he scooped the pot, eliminating Lawson.

Brandt Takes from Kolstad

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

In a blind versus blind situation, Lawrence Brandt raised to 30,000 and Cedric Kolstad made the call.

Both checked on the paired flop {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and also on the {k-Spades} turn.

The {q-Clubs} completed the board on the river and Brandt bet 40,000. Kolstad didn't take long to call, showing {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, but Brandt tabled {a-Spades}{6-Spades} for trips and added the chips to his stack.

Andreassen Applies Pressure

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Action was picked up on the turn with a board of {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and a pot worth around 225,000.

Vegard Andreassen led out from under the gun for 80,000. Michael Cox, sitting just to his left, made the snap call, putting his chips in at the same moment as Andreassen.

On the {5-Clubs} river, Andreassen sized up and pushed 200,000 into the middle. Cox didn't act with as much urgency as the previous street, tanking for a minute or two before eventually making a hesitant laydown.

No-Limit Hold'em

Esther Taylor raised in the hijack to 30,000 and picked up calls from Zachary Grech and Thomas Kearney in the blinds. The flop fanned {9-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts} and the three players checked.

On the {j-Hearts} turn, Grech led out for 32,000 and only Taylor chose to call. The river was the {9-Clubs} and Grech looked at Taylor's stack before sending 115,000 in the middle. Taylor considered it for a minute and ended up folding.
