Gavin-Mather Forces a Fold

Gaelle Jaudon

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

In a three-way raised pot, the flop showed 10♣6♦8♠ when Lexy Gavin-Mather bet 2,800. The hijack raised it to 6,000 and Abhishek Goindi, on the button, folded. Gavin-Mather took a minute and eventually called.

The K♦ showed up on the turn and Gavin-Mather fired 25,000 into the pot, putting her opponent at risk for his last 11,000. The latter didn't take long to fold and Gavin-Mather added the chips to her stack.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Jérôme Zerbib opened to 1,200 from under the gun, and was called by a player in middle position. But in the cutoff, Samy Dubonnet raised to 4,500. In the small blind, Brad Bylsma wasn't satisfied with this amount and four-bet to 12,500.

When the action was back to him, Zerbib counted his stack and took some time before raising again to 40,000. Dubonnet seemed to have a big hand too, but folded. Bylsma wasn't that wise and preferred to move all in for approximately 80,000 chips, and Zerbib called, slightly covered.

Jérôme Zerbib: A♥K♣
Brad Bylsma: K♠K♥

At risk, Zerbib wanted an ace to stay in the tournament. But the board Q♥6♠6♦4♣10♠ didn't help him, and he left just before the break.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

At Katie Lindsay's table, the player under the gun opened to 1,200 and got called three times: by Ryan Laplante in early position, by the cutoff, and by the big blind.

On 5♦9♣7♠, the first two players to act checked to Laplante, who bet 5,000. The cutoff called, and all other players in the pot folded.

The 8♠ landed on the turn, and this time, it was the cutoff who bet 7,000. Laplante checked and called to see the Q♦ on the river. He checked once again on this last street, and the cutoff checked back.

"Set," said Laplante, revealing 5♣5♠. Hearing that, the cutoff threw his cards into the muck and saw the pot going into Laplante's hands.

Ryan Laplante	80,000 56,000	56,000

Katie Lindsay	36,000 36,000	36,000
