Albrinck Gets a Fold

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Aram Zobian opened to 120,000 on the button and Brad Albrinck defended in the big blind.

Action checked through the 8♠7♣8♣ flop to the 7♥ turn at which point Albrinck checked once more. Zobian fired off 150,000 and Albrinck called.

The A♣ river saw Albrinck take over the betting lead by tossing 350,000 into the pot. Zobian thought for a moment, then mucked to put a small dent in his stack.

Adrian Mateos opened 120,000 in the cutoff and Adrian Mateos three-bet 375,000 on the button. Mateos responded with a four-bet jam and Chen called off his stack of 1,385,000.

James Chen: 9♥9♦ All in
Adrian Mateos: A♥Q♣

It was a race and the Q♥J♦8♣ flop gave Mateos the lead with a pair of queens. However, the 9♠ fell on the turn, for Chen to make a set and the K♠ river changed nothing.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Michael Rocco opened 120,000 in the hijack and only Fahredin Mustafov made the call from the big blind.

The Q♥ fell on the turn and Mustafov checked again before Rocco fired 375,000 into the middle. Mustafov called.

The 6♦ completed the board on the river, and Mustafov check-called another bet, this time Rocco pushed 900,000 across the line.

Rocco tabled A♠A♣, and Mustafov mucked his hand.

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Brad Albrinck opened the hijack to 120,000 and Alexandre Reard three-bet from the cutoff to 300,000. Aram Zobian was in the big blind and shoved all in, which got Albrinck to fold, but Reard quickly called for his stack of 1,940,000.

Alexandre Reard: A♣K♥ All in
Aram Zobian: A♥Q♥

Reard, who won this event last year, was in a great spot to double up and leap up the counts towards the summit. For a brief moment, Reard perhaps feared for his tournament life as he saw the Q♦10♦J♦ flop which paired Zobian's queen, but gave Reard Broadway.

A 6♦ on the turn brought around some more chop opportunities but the 8♥ river was clean for Reard, who doubled up.

When the Q♣10♣5♠ flop hit the felt, Baldwin check-called a bet of 80,000.

The J♠ turn was checked through to see the K♣ on the river.

Baldwin checked once more and Dimitrov fired 175,000. Baldwin mucked his hand.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Aram Zobian opened to 100,000 on the button and Brad Albrinck called in the big blind.

The 3♠K♥7♦ flop saw Albrinck check before calling a 85,000 continuation from Zobian.

Zobian bet again after Albrinck checked to him on the A♦ turn, this time making it a hefty 380,000. Albrinck opted to flat to see a river.

Neither player put any more chips in the pot following the 5♥ river. Albrinck flipped over K♣4♦ for second pair, sufficient to take down a sizable pot.

James Chen opened 100,000 in the cutoff and Egor Procop defended the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of J♥6♦6♥ and Procop led for 80,000. Chen raised to 200,000 and Procop called.

The 4♣ fell on the turn and check-called a bet of 325,000.

When the 5♣ landed on the river, both players tapped the table. Procop rolled K♥J♣ and Chen mucked his hand.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Michael Rocco opened from the cutoff to 100,000 and James Chen called from the big blind.

They saw a flop of 3♥10♥4♣ which Chen checked, Rocco bet 175,000, and Chen called.

The action then slowed down with both players checking to showdown on the 5♦J♥ runout. Chen tabled 6♣5♠ for a pair of fives, but Rocco had the winner with a pair of queens holding Q♣10♣.
