Ochana Gets Value from Vitch

Tyler Foran

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Christopher Vitch opened 70,000 in the cutoff and only Eddie Ochana came along in the big blind.

Both players checked to the A♦9♣5♦10♠A♠ river where Ochana flung two green chips across the line for a bet of 50,000. Vitch thought about it for a few moments and made the call.

Ochana tabled K♠K♥8♦5♣ and that was good as Vitch mucked his hand.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Kevin Hyde limped in from under the gun and received calls from Jose Ferreira in middle position, Bohdan Demianenko in the cutoff and Yale Hamrick in the small blind before Jason Bral checked in the big blind.

The flop came Q♣10♠7♠ and action checked around to Demianenko who bet 50,000. Hamrick and Bral made the call while Hyde and Ferreira got out of the way.

On the 4♣ turn Hamrick checked and Bral bet 270,000. Demianenko got out of the way and after briefly considering his options Hamrick folded as well.

Bral asked Hamrick if he wanted to see his cards before tabling K♦J♦5♦3♣ for just a straight draw and taking the pot.
