Level 13 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

David Coleman jammed for 390,000 from the cutoff and was called by Bryn Kenney from the big blinds.

David Coleman: A♥2♥ All in
Bryn Kenney: A♠10♦

Coleman found a deuce on the K♦9♥2♠ flop and doubled up after the 7♠ turn and 9♥ river. Kenney was left with 340,000.

The following hand, Coleman moved all in again, this time for 900,000, and Ben Tollerene called from the big blind.

Coleman had A♣10♥ and was flipping against 5x5x. The pocket pair remained best and Tollerene ejected Coleman from the competition after the K♦J♥8♥9♣4♣ runout.

On the next deal, Nick Petrangelo opened to 160,000. Kenney put in his last 300,000 from the button. Tollerene made it 500,000 and folded out Petrangelo for the cards to go on their backs.

Bryn Kenney: A♦J♣ All in
Ben Tollerene: A♣Q♥

Kenney hit his three-outer on the J♦5♠3♣ and held out to scoop in the pot after the K♣6♦ completed the board.

Mateos Finds a Double

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Ollie Garland

Level 13 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

The action was caught as Adrian Mateos was getting paid out with his 10♠10♣ face up on the table as the full board read 6♥J♣10♦5♥3♠; good enough for a flopped set of tens.

Mateos, in the hijack, found the full double for his last 2,085,000 against Andrew Lichtenberger, in the small blind.
