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

Pot-Limit Omaha

Robert Mizrachi raised to 25,000 under the gun. He was called by Feng Qu from the small blind and Nikolay Vorobyev in the big blind.

The flop came 4♣A♦J♠. Action was checked to Mizrachi, who bet 35,000. Qu called, while Vorobyev moved out of the way.

The turn brought the 4♠. Action again checked to Mizrachi, who counted out a bet of 86,000. Qu again made the call.

The river came 5♥. Qu checked once more, and this time Mizrachi checked behind. Qu turned over A♣Q♦9♣4♦ for a full house, and Mizrachi mucked.

"Are you gonna be the winner?" asked another player at the table.

No-Limit Hold'em

Martin Kabrhel raised to 25,000 from middle position and was called by Robert Wells on the button and Matthew Bretzfield in the big blind.

All three players checked the J♦8♠3♠ flop, as well as the 5♥ turn.

"No one has anything," mentioned Kabrhel after betting out 111,000 on the 8♦ river.

"I can't win, I run so bad," Kabrhel continued while Wells contemplated a call.

Wells would put in the calling chips and Bretzfield folded, with Kabrhel showing J♥10♠ and Wells mucking.

"That was decent poker, PokerNews." Concluded Kabrhel.

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

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was joined as Jared Jaffee had put his last 214,000 in the middle from the small blind, and was at risk from Federico Quevedo in the big blind, who barely had him covered.

Jared Jaffee: A♣3♠
Federico Quevedo: K♣K♦

Jaffee still needed help after the flop came 8♦7♣9♣, but was rescued by the A♥ turn. The J♥ harmlessly hit the river, and Jaffee doubled up as Quevedo was left with crumbs.

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

Pot-Limit Omaha

Robert Nehorayan announced, "pot," from early position on a Q♦8♥5♥ flop, an amount equaling 108,000, and was called by Brandon Sheils in late position.

Nehorayan would move all-in for his remaining chips on the 7♠ turn and was snap-called by Sheils.

Robert Nehorayan: K♠K♣Q♥5♦
Robert Sheils: A♥10♦9♦6♥

Sheils turned a nine-high straight, leaving Nehorayan needing to hit some full-house outs to stay alive, but the A♦ river would send him to the payout desk.

Dan Stavila raised to 36,000 from the button, with Gregory Kolo defending his big blind.

The flop came 6♥Q♥4♥, and Kolo checked. Stavila reached into his stack and bet 18,000. Kolo mulled over his options for a few moments before raising to 63,000. Stavila shuffled his chips as he looked at his stack. Ultimately, he let go of the hand, pushing the pot to Kolo without the river coming.
