Campbell Flushed Out by Peinado

Connor Richards

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

In a four-way pot on a board of 2♥6♣4♣, action checked to Alejandro Peinado on the button and he bet 45,000.

Ronald Campbell check-raised to 110,000 in the big blind and action folded to Peinado, who three-bet all in. Peinado called off for about 130,000 more.

Ronald Campbell: 8♣4♠ All in
Alejandro Peinado: K♣J♣

Campbell had the best hand and improved on the 4♥ turn, but the 5♣ river gave Peinado a flush to send Campbell to the rail.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Players have started to drop now that we’re in the money here in the Mystery Bounty Event, and Stefan Stoll was seemingly going to head in the same direction as he got it in preflop against both Mitchell Halverson and Michael “Texas Mike” Moncek, with Halverson also at risk.

Stefan Stoll: A♠J♦ All in
Mitchell Halverson: K♠K♣ All in
Michael Moncek: 6♠6♥

Stefan Stoll asked “give me an ace, one time please!” and the dealer wasted no time in obliging, as the flop came A♣7♥10♠. Both of the other players were unable to improve as the board came 4♥10♣, leaving Texas Mike as the big loser, whilst Stoll tripled up and Halverson stayed alive.

Michael Moncek	980,000 570,000	570,000

Stefan Stoll	850,000 630,000	630,000

Two Pair No Good

Jacob Wilson

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

On a board of A♦Q♦6♦K♠3♦ with Elvyn Bello having been all in preflop, Mike Gorodinsky bet into Ronald Campbell, which was enough to put him all in also. As recounted for PokerNews this was his third barrel, and he had fired big on every street.

Campbell eventually folded his hand, and Bello showed A♥Q♠. Unfortunately, he had run into the flopped nuts in the form of Gorodinsky’s K♦8♦. He announced his frustration about the cooler before hitting the rail with a score of $13,592.

Mike Gorodinsky	1,400,000 550,000	550,000

Ronald Campbell	350,000 190,000	190,000
