Grospellier Lets It Go

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier opened to 800 from early position and received a sole call out of the big blind.

Both players checked through the {6-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop to the {10-Diamonds} turn where the big blind led out for 2,000. Grospellier, who has struggled to get much momentum going through the first two levels, raised his hands in frustration as he folded.

D'Ambrosio Coolers Arieh

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Jimmy D'Ambrosio
Jimmy D'Ambrosio

Action picked up on the flop in a three-way pot with a board of {10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.

Jimmy D'Ambrosio bet 3,300 from under the gun. Harry Kazazian folded the button, but the small blind called, and Josh Arieh called in the big blind.

"What?" said Ambrosio when Kazazian folded.

"You'll probably hit me with the five-six," said Kazazian.

The dealer reminded Kazazian not to talk about the hand.

The turn brought the {5-Diamonds}. Both players checked to D'Ambrosio, who bet 9,900. The small blind folded, Arieh made the call.

The river completed the front-door flush when the {9-Hearts} hit the board. Arieh checked to D'Ambrosio who bet 13,900.

Arieh thought for about 15 seconds before announcing "all in," 25,000 effective. D'Ambrosio called immediately.

Arieh showed {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the rivered flush, but D'Ambrosio indeed had the {5-Spades}{6-Spades} for the turned full house.

Assorted Chips Throughout

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Shapiro's Shove Takes it Down

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Three players paid 1,800 to see the {2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades} flop. The cutoff led out for 3,000. Josh Shapiro, in the small blind, raised to 6,000. "Plan that before the flop?" the cutoff asked of Shapiro, who could only offer a confused "what?" in response. The opponent made the call, while the other player who had gone to the flop got out of the way.

On the {4-Hearts} turn, Shapiro continued, now for 8,000, getting a quick call from his opponent. On the {j-Hearts} river, Shapiro moved all in for 22,700. This was too much for the cutoff, who threw his cards towards the muck in disgust, while Shapiro raked in the pot.

Terebelo, Ruivo Chop Up Kuznetsov

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov was all in for his last 10,000 and Manuel Ruivo for his last 45,000 as both were up against Josh Terebelo in the big blind who had them covered.

Nikita Kuznetsov: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Manuel Ruivo: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Josh Terebelo: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Ruivo and Terebelo each had the same hand as Kuznetsov was a favorite to triple up here. "Good spot," a tablemate told the Russian as he took out his phone to record the action.

The {a-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop gave both Ruivo and Terebelo a pair of aces and Kuznetsov failed to hit the {4-Clubs} turn or {9-Diamonds} river to hit the rail, while Ruivo and Terebelo chopped the pot.

Moreno and Weng Moving Up in Latest Counts

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Altman Picks One Off to Chip Back Up

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Brian Altman was down to below half starting stack before the break but has since moved back up some, thanks in large part to a hand that just happened.

Altman was facing an early position river bet of 11,000 into a pot of about 17,000 when the board was wet-looking, {q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{9-Clubs}. He took his time and gave his opponent his renowned intense stare before calling.

His opponent tabled the {a-Clubs}{7-Spades} and Altman showed the winner with the {k-Spades}{9-Spades}.

Yokosawa Folds to Gale's Aces

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

A player limped in from early position and Masato Yokosawa raised to 1,300 in middle position. Lee Gale then raised to 3,700 in the cutoff, and action folded back to Yokosawa who called.

The dealer spread the {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop and Yokosawa check-called for 4,200.

The {2-Spades} landed on the turn, Yokosawa checked, and Gale moved all in. Yokosawa had a decision for his remaining stack of roughly 18,000 and smiled while he looked at the board and shuffled chips. After a minute or two, the popular Japanese poker vlogger sent his cards into the muck to survive for another hand, as Gale revealed his {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} while he collected the pot.

Abernathy Hits the Last Jack

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Sam Abernathy
Sam Abernathy

Sam Abernathy was heads-up on a flop of {j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and bet 6,400 from the small blind. Her opponent called on the button and they saw the {10-Spades} fall on the turn.

Abernathy checked this time and the button flicked in 15,000. Abernathy re-checked her cards one last time before moving all in for 27,000, with her opponent snap-calling.

Abernathy showed {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a full house as her opponent was already drawing dead with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}. The meaningless river was the {5-Diamonds} and she doubled up.

Afterward, a tablemate said he folded king-jack of hearts, meaning Abernathy had hit a one-outer on the flop.
