Stamm Bluffs Lyall

Frank Visser

Level 23 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Dean Lyall looked down at 8♠8♣ under the gun and raised to 400,000. David Stamm defended 9♠5♠ in the big blind and the two saw a flop of J♦K♥7♥ appear on the table.

Stamm checked to Lyall, who checked back. Another round of checks followed on the A♥ turn before the 4♠ river completed the board.

Stamm fired 250,000 chips in the middle with just nine-high, which was enough to let Lyall fold his pocket pair.

Level 23 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Shaun Deeb raised his small blind to 700,000 with A♠Q♥ before Noel Rodriguez defended K♦4♦ in the big blind.

The flop was dealt K♣10♠J♦, giving Deeb the stone-cold nuts. He continued for 525,000 chips and Rodriguez called with his top pair.

On the subsequent A♣ turn, Deeb bet 825,000. Rodriguez quickly mucked his hand as Deeb recuperated a bit from the previous hand.

Level 23 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Yingui Li limped in from the small blind and Shaun Deeb checked in the big blind. The flop fell 8♠2♠6♥ and Li continued with a bet of 300,000.

Deeb raised to 750,000, after which Li jammed all in for 3,250,000 chips. Deeb immediately called and the cards were tabled.

Yingui Li: 5♥4♥ All in
Shaun Deeb: 8♣2♦

Li was in rough shape with a double-gutshot straight draw against the two pair of Deeb, but the 7♦ turn saw him make his straight. The 3♣ river failed to bring Deeb a full house, and Li raked in the double-up to become second in the chip counts.

Yingui Li	7,100,000 3,250,000	3,250,000

Level 22 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Shaun Deeb raised to 320,000 from under the gun, and the action folded all the way back to Samuel Laskowitz in the big blind who opted to defend it.

The flop came 9♦5♦9♥, Laskowitz opted to check. Deeb continued with a min-bet for Laskowitz to raise it up to 385,000. Deeb looked over to Laskowitz's stack, then glanced at his cards once more before he decided to put Laskowitz all-in who called for his last 700,000 or so.

Samuel Laskowitz: 7♥5♠ All in
Shaun Deeb: K♥K♣

Laskowitz had flopped two pair but Deeb was ahead with the pocket kings in his hand for the higher two pair.

The rest of the board was completed with the 3♥ on the turn and the 10♣ on the river to not help Laskowitz as he was eliminated in ninth place.

Level 22 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

David Stamm raised his button to 325,000 and Yingui Li defended the big blind. The Q♦5♠7♠ flop was subsequentially checked through before Li led out for 500,000 on the 6♣ turn.

Stamm made the call and the 8♦ river emerged from the deck. Li slowed down and checked, prompting Stamm to shove all in for 3,125,000 chips.

Li quickly folded his hand, granting the pot to Stamm, who eclipsed the five-million mark.
