Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action folded around to the cutoff who raised to 1,100. Joe Ramirez called from the button and the big blind completed.

Three ways to a A♦J♠9♠ flop, action checked to Ramirez who fired 3,000. Both his opponents called.

When checked to on the K♣ turn, Ramirez moved all in for 15,300. Without much hesitation, both opponents mucked and Ramirez chipped up without having to see a river.

Ryan Lashmar

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With three players seeing a board of Q♠5♥J♠ and around 100,000 in the middle, a player in the hijack was all in and up against both John Kipfer in middle position who covered him and a player in early position who covered both players.

Hijack: A♠4♠ All in
John Kipfer: Q♦J♣ All in
Early Position: 5♠5♦

All three players caught a big piece of the flop. The covering player was ahead with bottom set and remained so on the 9♥ turn. The Q♣ gave Kipfer queens full of jacks to send one of his opponents to the rail and scoop a massive early pot.

Nick Guagenti is also seated at this table and is off to a good start with a stack worth over 150 big blinds.

Player	Chips	Progress
John Kipfer	99,000 99,000	99,000
Nick Guagenti	79,500 79,500	79,500

Michael Giacobbe

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Early position opened the action with a raise to 1,200. Andres Baez called in middle position before the hijack raised to 3,800. Only Baez made the call.

The cutoff checked the 10♥J♦7♦ flop over to Baez who fired 10,000. The cutoff check-raised to 37,000, forcing Baez all in and he made the call.

Andres Baez: 9♥8♥ All in
Cutoff: J♥J♣

An action flop, Baez needed to fade the board-pairing and he did after the 3♥ turn and 4♦ river sealed the deal earning him a big double up.
