Brian Green

Brian Green's mantra, "The universe wants me to win", has served him well with a 13th-place finish today.

Green raised preflop from under the gun to 225,000, and Xiaohu Liu three-bet to 500,000 from the hijack. Green flat called. The flop was 25J, and Green moved all in for 1,150,000, and Liu quickly called.

Brian Green: AJ All in
Xiaohu Liu: KK

The turn was the 6, and the river was the 2, and Green was eliminated, and Liu gathered his chips.

Shen Spikes a Ten to Crush Babusukumar's Aces

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Umesh Babusukumar made it 200,000 to go from the cutoff and Allen Shen three-bet to 1,500,000, leaving just a few chips behind. When it got back to Babusukumar, he shoved, and Shen called off the rest.

Allen Shen: 1010 All in
Umesh Babusukumar: AA

There were screams of "ten" from the crowd, and the flop delivered what they wanted as the QJ10 flop gave Shen a set, though Babusukumar did pick up a gutshot. However, neither the 4 turn nor 3 river changed anything, and Babusukumar was left with just two big blinds.

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Quan Zhou raised from the cutoff to 200,000 and Henrik Juncker called on the button.

Both checked the 8Q9 flop and when the A hit the turn, Zhou fired 250,000. That was enough to earn him the pot as Juncker folded.

In the next hand, Zhou opened from the hijack and took down the pot as everybody else folded.
