Deeb Shoves the River into Harman

Kai Cocklin

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a board of Q♦2♦A♣9♣ there were around 100,000 chips in the pot and both Shaun Deeb & Jorge Carvalho had checked to Jennifer Harman, who fired 75,000. After some time, Deeb called and Carvalho folded.

The 6♣ fell on the river and Deeb led with a shove, which put Harman to the test for her remaining 145,000. After thinking it over, Harman decided to fold.

"I was going to shove the river if you checked," said Harman to Deeb.

"I guess we had similar hands then," replied Deeb.

Jorge Carvalho	685,000 410,000	410,000

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Andre Akkari raised to 35,000 from early position and left just a single chip worth 1,000 in his stack. Lander Lijo then shoved from the hijack and the rest of the table folded, then Akkari called off his remaining chip.

Andre Akkari: A♦7♦ All in
Lander Lijo: K♥10♠

Lijo made a pair on the 10♥2♥3♠ flop and improved to a flush draw on the J♥ turn. Only an offsuit ace could save Akkari and that's what he found as the A♣ fell on the river.

Player	Chips	Progress
Lander Lijo	220,000 38,000	38,000
Andre Akkari	97,000 23,000	23,000

Eracles Panayiotou: K♦7♥

Panayiotou pulled ahead on the K♥ turn and ended up with a boat when the K♠ peeled off on the river.

John Riordan shoved from under the gun for 110,000 and Dong Chen put him at risk from the hijack.

John Riordan: A♥J♥ All in
Dong Chen: A♣10♣

Both players caught a piece of the 10♠3♠J♠ flop and the 5♠ turn brought around some chop opportunities. However, the 2♣ was a brick which meant Riordan doubled up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Dong Chen	240,000 200,000	200,000

John Riordan	235,000 135,000	135,000
