Zerbib Extracts Value

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action was picked up on the river. Players were heads up and the board read 8♦3♣5♣10♦K♦ and there was about 60,000 in the middle.

Jerome Zerbib bet 40,000, sending his opponent deep into the tank. After about three minutes his opponent made the call and showed down K♣Q♣ for a king-high flush draw on the flop that turned into top pair with a strong kicker. Zerbib showed down K♠10♠ for two pair, kings and tens which was good enough to take a sizable chunk off of his opponent's stack.

One of the most exciting things about the World Series of Poker is seeing a plethora of celebrities, athletes and musicians all participating in the game we love to play. And this year has been no exception with the likes of James Woods, Broadway star Aaron Tveit and UFC fighter Colby Covington all cutting up on the felt the last few weeks.

Then on Wednesday, July 5, a huge shock entrant rocked up to the Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas to play the WSOP Main Event. Former Manchester City and Argentina forward Sergio Aguero entered poker's biggest event and cruised through Day 1c and ended up bagging an above starting stack for Day 2.

The soccer superstar is still in contention to make it through to the next stage as he currently sits with 150,000 in front of him, which is almost twice as much as what he started with this morning.

Action was picked up on the river with 21,800 in the middle in a pot between Alex Kulev in the small blind and another player in early position.

On a board reading 5♠5♥A♠K♦4♥ Kulev bet 25,000 and his opponent went into the tank. After some thought he tossed in the single green chip to make the call.

Kulev turned over 8♣5♣ for three fives which was good for the pot and the Bulgarian added to his growing stack.

At another table, Antoine Saout was eliminated.

Martin Finger, Ian Steinman, and Shota Nakanishi went three-handed to the turn with the board showing 9♦3♣6♠K♥ when Finger bet 4,200 from early position.

Steinman called in the cutoff before Nakanishi, in the big blind, raised to 17,000. Finger quickly called, while Steinman got out of the way.

The river came the 6♥ and Nakanishi now fired out 75,000, sending Finger deep into the tank.

Several minutes went by before Finger let out a deep sigh and Nakanishi smiled back at him. Finger eventually tapped the felt and gave up his hand as Nakanishi took down the pot.

"I had a six in my hand," Steinman confessed after the hand.

The action folded to the hijack who opened for 2,500 and Ashley Frank called next to act. James Collins put in a three-bet to 8,500 on the button and only Frank made the call.

The flop came Q♥Q♠7♥ and Frank check-called a bet of 11,000 from Collins. The 7♣ hit the turn and Frank checked a second time to Collins who sized to 25,000. Frank double checked her stack, but eventually flicked her cards into the muck and the pot was awarded to Collins who rolled over a Q♣ to show Frank she made the correct fold.
