Myrmo Takes From Kashat

Christian Zetzsche

Level 16 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Firas Kashat raised out of the small blind and then called a pot-sized three-bet to 99,000 by Espen Myrmo. The 8♦5♦3♥ flop was checked and the 8♣ followed on the turn. Kashat bet 60,000 and Myrmo called.

After the J♥ river, both players checked and Kashat asked "do you have kings?" Myrmo had one notch higher with the A♣A♠Q♣7♥ and won the pot.

On a completed board of 4♦3♣9♣5♥K♣, Sam Soverel led out for 90,000 into the massive pot of 600,000 and the action was then on Ben Lamb who was in the tank.

After a good while, Lamb made the call and was shown Q♠6♠8♥5♦ for just a pair of fives while Lamb quickly flipped over A♦A♥6♥7♣ for a straight to take down the pot.

Level 16 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Following a flop of A♥K♣10♣, Vidur Sethi checked and then called a bet worth 40,000 by by Chance Kornuth. The 4♦ turn was checked and Sethi also checked the J♠ river. Kornuth bet 85,000 and that won the pot uncontested.

Jake Schindler then arrived at the table and Kornuth opened to 40,000 for Sethi to call on the button. Schindler raised the pot to 176,000 in the small blind and forced two folds.

Maksimov Sends Zinno to the Rail

Jeremy Geist

Level 16 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Action folded to Anthony Zinno in the cutoff who opened to 54,000. Only Artem Maksimov in the big blind made the call.

The 9♠5♠3♦ landed on the flop and Maksimov led for 100,000. Zinno then went all in for around 340,000 and Maksimov called.

Anthony Zinno: A♣4♥7♥9♦
Artem Maksimov: A♠Q♠6♣3♥

Maksimove would drill the nuts on the 10♠ turn and the 8♣ river would not bring Zinno any help. He would hit the rail on the soft bubble.

Haxton Jams Into Azoulay

Level 16 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Joining the action on the 10♣7♣4♣ flop, a bet by Jonathan Azoulay for 75,000 out of the small blind was called by Isaac Haxton on the button. The 4♦ fell on the turn and Azoulay now checked, which prompted a pot-sized bet worth 320,000 by Haxton and the reluctant call by Azoulay.

Fast forward to the 7♠ river, Azoulay checked again and Haxton bet the pot for 930,000. That had his opponent covered and Azoulay burned through all of his five available time banks before he folded and flashed the A♣J♥5♣Xx for the ace-high flush.

Haxton briefly showed him pocket tens for a full house and Azoulay was relieved before heading into the Day 2 dinner break.
