With roughly 250,000 in the middle, on a board of 9♠4♣5♦K♥, the player in the big blind bet 75,000 and was met with a raise to 350,000 from James Cavanaugh. The big blind thought for a while before letting go of his hand.
With roughly 250,000 in the middle, on a board of 9♠4♣5♦K♥, the player in the big blind bet 75,000 and was met with a raise to 350,000 from James Cavanaugh. The big blind thought for a while before letting go of his hand.
With about 2,500,000 in the middle already on the Q♣8♣4♥3♠ turn, Ryan Hughes fired 1,500,000 into the middle. Stefan Jauslin was his only opponent in the hand and moved all-in.
"How much is it?" Asked Hughes, "Not much more?"
He then saw it was 2,130,000 and made the call as he said, "I have good news for you," and tabled his hand.
Stefan Jauslin: K♣Q♠J♠10♣
Ryan Hughes: A♥J♥4♦2♣
Jauslin was in great shape with a pair of queens and a flush draw and the K♠ river improved him to two pair to score the double.
The player in middle position raised to 80,000 and Gregory Wish three-bet to 280,000 from the small blind. Middle position called.
The flop came 8♥2♥5♥ and Wish check-called a bet of 120,000. On the 7♠ turn, Wish check-called again, this time for 300,000.
The river landed the J♠ and action went check-check. Wish tabled A♠A♣10♥3♥ for a flush, and middle position mucked his hand.
On a flop of 6♠J♥A♥, Daisuke Ogita had checked to his opponent on the button, who fired out a bet of 250,000. After a few moments, Ogita check-raised to 500,000 and got a quick fold from his opponent,
Alemu Makonen raised to 80,000 from the hijack. Christopher Alcindor three-bet to roughly 300,000 from the small blind and Ryan Hughes cold-called from the big blind. Makonen then four-bet to 1,120,000. Alcindor put in his last 200,000 chips and Hughes made the call as well. The three players went to the flop with Alcindor being all-in.
Hughes checked the A♥3♣9♠ flop. Makonen moved all-in for 600,000 and Hughes made the call.
Christopher Alcindor: A♠A♣Q♦7♣
Alemu Makonen: K♥K♣6♠6♥
Ryan Hughes: Q♠J♦10♦8♠
The turn came the A♦ improving Alcindor to quads and an inconsequential 5♠ came on the river. Alcindor would triple up with quads, and Makonen won the side pot with a pair of kings.
Welker Mendes Demedeiros raised to 120,000 in the small blind and Gene Grieshaber defended in the big blind.
The flop came J♥Q♥J♠ and Demedeiros bet 90,000. Grieshaber then moved all in, putting Demedeiros at risk, who made the call.
Welker Mendes Demedeiros: A♦A♣6♣2♦
Gene Grieshaber: 10♣4♦3♠3♦
Demedeiros was in the lead until the board ran out 9♥, 3♣ with Grieshaber hitting a full house, threes full of jacks on the river.
Raymond Henson opened to 140,000 in early position and the action folded around to Paul Dhaliwal on the button. He hesitated as he asked to see Henson's stack. "I just want to see if I have you covered," he said as he was thinking. Eventually, he saw he did and jammed for 370,000. James Carroll was in the big blind and slid a stack of blues across the line and Henson called off his stack of about 330,000.
Raymond Henson: A♠K♦8♠3♦
Paul Dhaliwal: A♦K♣K♥4♣
James Carroll: K♠Q♥J♣2♠
Dhaliwal's kings were able to hold as the dealer ran out the Q♦6♥5♠6♦3♥ board.
