Steinman Calls the Flop Exactly

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Ian Steinman raised to 4,000 from early position as action folded around to the small blind who called, as did big blind Martin Finger.

"It's going to come eight-three-three for sure," Steinman said heading to the flop, which came 338. "That's weird," he added.

"How did you do that? Can you call for me to get four aces next time," another tablemate said as Steinman fired out another bet of 5,000 which was enough to win the pot.

Shota Nakanishi at the same table is having the time of his life, constantly laughing and joking with his tablemates. While this hand was taking place he flashed a big smile and flexed his muscles over his massive chip stack as he has one of the biggest in this section.

Hasson Keeps It Steady, Frank Short, Kihara Gone

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Ori Hasson opened to 3,500 from early position and Andrew Sayegh called from the cutoff. The flop was 88Q and Hasson put out a continuation-bet of 4,000 and saw another call from Sayegh.

The turn then was dealt out the 6 and Hasson fired a big bet of 17,500. This time, it was enough to let Sayegh lay his hand down.

Meanwhile Ashley Frank was sitting at this table playing with her final four T-5,000 chips, and Naoya Kihara was seen leaving the tournament area after busting from another table.

Benjamin Spragg

The pot stood at approximately 8,500 as the board read A32.

Both the player in the big blind and Benjamin Spragg on the button checked the hand down as the turn and river fell the 7 and 6 respectively.

The big blind checked again, prompting Spragg to bet out for 5,500 to which his opponent made a quick call.

Benjamin Spragg: J10
Big Blind: 55

Spragg's jack-high flush was way out in front of the five-high flush of his opponent.

Prince Getting Some Back

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Jean "Prince" Gaspard raised to 4,000 in late position which saw action fold around to Cord Garcia in the small blind who called and the big blind called as well.

The flop of QJQ saw action check around to Gaspard who bet 8,000 which only Garcia called.

On the turn A, Garcia checked a second time to Gaspard who moved all in for 39,000 and Garcia rolled his eyes and tossed his hand into the muck, ceding the pot to the fellow bracelet winner.

All the chips went in the middle preflop between Julius Roque, at risk for a stack worth 39,500, and Clayton Maguire who had him covered.

Roque tabled KK and was in great shape for a double up, facing JJ in Maguire's hand, and took down the pot after the board brought 64567.

"Call the Cops!"

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Brian Hastings raised to 3,000 in the hijack and was called by the button along with Tom McCormick in the small blind. The flop came K43 and the action checked through to the 8 on the turn and the 9 on the river.

Three more checks and McCormick whipped over K10 for top pair. Both of his opponents mucked and McCormick was astonished that he won the pot.

"Woah! Call the cops!" Mccormick blurted as he raked in the pot.

"Wine level already?" Michael Jozoff asked at the table.

"I've got more," McCormick replied with a full water bottle of red wine.

Petitti Fires Away at Makhija

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Amit Makhija raised to 3,500 from under the gun before Nick Petitti three-bet to 13,000 in middle positon. The big blind gave it some thought before mucking, but Makhija called once action went back on him.

The flop came 247 and Makhija checked to Petitti, who continued for 12,000. Makhija again called to see the 6 turn.

He checked again and Petitti now fired out 36,000. Makhija spent about a minute in the tank starring down Petitti before tossing his cards into the muck.

Martin Zamani

Rene Majed opened to 3,000 from the cutoff and Martin Zamani three-bet to 11,000 from the button. A player in the big blind put in a four-bet to 28,000, forcing Majed out of the hand.

Zamani thought about his decision for about a minute before moving all in for approximately 100,000.

The big blind quickly folded A4 face up. Zamani revealed AK and took down a decent pot uncontested.

Billy Baxter
Billy Baxter

Billy Baxter raised under the gun to 3,500. In response, the hijack three-bet to 10,500 and Baxter made the call.

The flop came 362 and Baxter check-raised a bet of 10,000 from his opponent to 30,000. The hijack responded by four-betting all in and Baxter called.

Hijack: AK
Billy Baxter: 33

The turn and river fell the 2 and the A respectively. Baxter had his opponent drawing dead on the turn and consequently sent them to the rail.
