Kings Never Win

Monika Kostanjevec
Monika Kostanjevec
Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

David Niedringhaus was on a short stack and moved all in from early position. Brandon Bloom was in the big blind and reraised all in. The rest of the table folded.

David Niedringhaus: A♠5♠All in
Brandon Bloom: K♥K♦

The Q♥4♦A♦ flop flipped things around, leaving the favored kings way behind. The 8♠ turn and 5♥ river did not change anything and Niedringhaus doubled up.

The players commented that pocket kings have been the worst hand at the table, losing four times recently, and should at this point probably be folded preflop.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

According to the players, Joseph Larson opened the action preflop and his opponent in the big blind defended.

The flop was 10♠Q♥J♦. Big blind checked and Larson continued for 40,000, which the big blind raised to 140,000. Larson called.

The turn was the Q♦. The big blind went all in for around a million chips and Larson called.

Big blind: 9♠8♣All in
Joseph Larson: 10♥10♣

The river was the 9♣. The player in the big blind had flopped a straight, but was drawing dead on the turn against Larson’s full house and his tournament was over, while Larson took the pot to almost double up and now has a nice stack of over 60 big blinds.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Faizan Ali got lucky with ace-ten twice in the two following hands:

Faizan Ali was on the button and faced a raise to 75,000 from an early position player. Ali three-bet all in for 525,000 and received the call.

Faizan Ali: A♠10♦ All in
Early position: A♥K♥

The board ran out with 10♦10♣5♣8♣9♠ and Ali's trip tens scored the win.

On the second hand a player in middle position raised to 75,000 and Ali made the call from the cutoff position. The flop arrived with A♠8♥4♣ and the middle position bet 75,000 and Ali called.

Both players checked the turn 5♣.

On the river J♦ the middle position player bet 30,000 and Ali made the call. The middle position turned over J♥10♥ for a pair of jacks and Ali turned over....yes you guessed it A♦10♦ for the pair of aces and the win.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

The button started the hand with a stack of around 420,000 and opened to 75,000. David Gomes was in the small blind and went all in for 450,000. The button started talking to himself through the decision and took a few moments before deciding to call.

Button: A♦9♠All in
David Gomes: Q♥J♥

The button jumped out of his seat, happy to see Gomes’s cards, saying he knew he was stealing.

However, the hand was not over. The flop came Q♦3♦6♣ and Gomes pulled ahead.

The turn J♠ gave Gomes two pair and had his opponent drawing dead. The river was the inconsequential Kx. The player was visibly upset and reiterated everyone at the table knew Gomes was stealing, added a few intense comments about him, mentioned something about a ‘stupid’ decision and had to be stopped from storming off the floor before getting his payout.

Victor Dermendjian was in the big blind and faced a raise from the small blind to 70,000. The flop was 2♥2♣5♣ and the small blind bet out 70,000 and Dermendjian made the call.

Small blind: K♠Q♠ All in
Victor Dermendjian: 6♠2♠

The small blind was drawing thin and the river J♠ sealed the win for Dermendjian with his trips.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Four players saw the flop of 9♣J♠5♠. The player in the big blind bet out for 140,000 and Ivan Berrios in middle position raised to 280,000. The players in late position and on the button folded. Big blind did not have much more left behind, thought for a moment and then put the rest of his chips in for a call.

Big blind: J♣4♣All in
Ivan Berrios: A♠6♠

The big blind was at risk and ahead on the flop, and made two pair on the 4♠ turn, but Berrios made the flush. The river was the K♦ and Berrios won the pot.

The table commented that the big blind just moved to an unlucky seat, as another player recently busted from there.
