Kaitlyn Jeffers

Level 12 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

David Diaz was on the button and Jesse Lonis was in the small blind when action picked up with the two of them plus the big blind player going to the river with an already massive pot on the table.

Once the dealer put the river card out the board read K♦Q♥8♥5♣K♣. The big blind player bet 13,000 and when action folded to Lonis he tanked for a bit before eventually making the call.

When he did his opponent said "good call" and turned over just A♠J♠ and Lonis tabled Q♣9♥9♦6♥. Diaz remarked that Lonis is a "super pro."

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player limped in early position as did Alex Livingston in middle position and the button player. The small blind called and the big blind checked to send action five-way to the flop.

The blinds and the early position player checked to Livingston following the 3♦2♥6♦ flop and he bet 6,500. The button player called while the other players folded.

Livingston check-called a 12,000 bet from his opponet on the 7♠ turn.

The 5♣ river saw Livingston check again before folding to a bet of 24,000 by the button player.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Yueqi Zhu opened to 5,500 from under the gun and then called off for his remaining chips after Scott Abrams three-bet to 19,000 from middle position.

Yueqi Zhu: A♣K♥J♣4♣ All in
Scott Abrams: A♦A♠6♥5♠

Zhu was in rough shape and left hoping for running clubs or a deuce on the 8♣3♠5♦ flop. The 7♣ turn was sweaty but the river bricked out J♥ to hand Abrams the pot and condemn Zhu to an out of the money finish.
