Nasa Picks Off Dang in Massive Pot

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A pot of around 40,000 was already in the middle as Yen Dang and Akshay Nasa saw the river on a completed board of 2Q1078. Dang then bet another 40,000 as action went on Nasa.

Nasa tanked for several minutes over the decision for most of his remaining stack. Another tablemate, who claimed he had time to head off to the bathroom and come back in the time Nasa took to make his decision, eventually called the clock.

The tournament floor arrived by the table and started counting down before Nasa slammed in a call. Dang showed AK, while Nasa had JJ to take down the pot.

"Calling the clock helped you," Nasa's tablemate added after the hand

Welko Takes from Taylor

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Thomas Taylor raised in the cutoff before Craig Wilko three-bet to 8,400 in the small blind. The big blind folded and Taylor made the call.

When the 1022 flop hit the felt, Wilko continued for 6,100, which was called by Taylor.

Wilko continued with aggression when the 6 fell on the turn, firing 10,500 into the middle. Taylor paused for a moment and put in the call.

The 8 river put the fourth diamond on the board and Wilko slowed down, checking to Taylor who checked back. Wilko tabled AJ for a flush and dragged the pot as Taylor mucked his hand.

Carrera Wins Without a Showdown

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The pot stood at 13,000 with the board reading 7J5A and two players remaining in the hand.

The player in the big blind bet out for 5,500. Jorge Carrera was in the under-the-gun position and opted to shove all in for his remaining 12,300. Seemingly too much for Carrera's opponent to call, they mucked their cards and conceded the pot.

Hunter Hemphill was the opponent in the hand and thought about it for about 20 seconds before making the call. Tuominen tabled 64 for fours and threes, which was good as Hemphill mucked his hand.

Nezhoda Gets Tricky with Aces

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The under-the-gun player raised to 3,000, finding Rene Nezhoda in the small blind who called. The big blind three-bet to 12,000 to which the original raiser flat called. Nezhoda considered his options before coming in for a four-bet jam for approximately 134,000.

Both opponents looked bemused by Nezhoda's play and opted to play it safe by sending their cards to the muck.

"What a bluff!" Nezhoda announced to the table "One pair only" he declared as he tabled AA.
