A player under the gun limped before a player in early position raised to 16,000. Then a player in middle position three-bet to 35,000. When it folded to the cutoff, Blas Torres, he four bet all in for 85,000. When it got to the player under the gun, he sat in the tank for 30 seconds before another player not in the hand called the clock. After an argument about whether the clock call was warranted, the under the gun player found a fold.
But once the action got back to the early position player, he five-bet all in for 377,000. The player in middle position sat in the tank as well, but also found a fold, leaving the two players heads up, with Torres at risk.
Blas Torres: K♠K♥
Early Position; A♠K♦
Torres was in great shape, and when the board ran out Q♠9♥2♥5♦8♠ his kings were still best and scooped a pot for more than a double up.
Action folded to the button when a player went all in for 60,000, and Anthony Alway made the call putting the player at risk. The big blind folded leaving the players heads up.
Button: K♠10♠
Anthony Alway: A♠J♥
Alway was ahead with his ace high, and when the board ran out 9♣A♦10♣J♦A♣ it improved Alway to the nuts with a full house, eliminating the player on the button.
