Shak Hits The Rail

Stewart Morrison

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Eric Wasserson kicked the action off with a limp from under the gun. Dan Shak followed suit, limping one seat to his left. Dylan Weisman put an end to the limping, raising to 33,000, and when action folded back to the limpers, they both called.

When the dealer revealed a flop of 8♣Q♣9♠, Wasserson and Shak maneuvered their stacks into the middle, and Weisman returned his cards to the dealer.

Dan Shak: 9♣8♦7♥6♠ All in
Eric Wasserson: A♣10♠10♣7♣

The turn 5♥ kept Shak in the lead, but the river 6♥ gave Wasserson the checkmark, rivering a higher straight.

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Laszlo Bujtas started this hand with a limp under the gun. Erik Seidel was two his left, and raised to 27,000. Action folded to Bryn Kenney in the small blind, and he repotted Seidel's raise. Bujtas folded, and Seidel made the call.

Erik Seidel: A♦10♥9♦6♥ All in
Bryn Kenney: K♥K♦J♦9♥

The flop of A♠5♥2♦ gave Seidel the lead, but K♠ on the turn had him drawing dead. The inconsequential 10♣ fell on the river, and Kenney got all of Seidel's chips.

Tell Your Friends

Adam Lamers

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Picking up the action on the flop with the board reading A♣7♣6♠, Scott Bohlman had a bet of 50,000 in front of him. Fabian Riebau-Schmithals check-raised to 225,000 and Bohlman jammed all in. Riebau-Schmithals called off his stack of 292,000 and the cards were tabled.

Fabian Riebau-Schmithals: Q♣10♥9♦8♣ All in
Scott Bohlman: K♣J♦10♣7♦

Both players had a flush draw but it was Riebau-Schmithals who made a straight on the 8♠ turn card. However, the 2♣ completed the board and Bohlman made the best flush to eliminate Riebau-Schmithals.

After a brief discussion, it was determined that three other players in the hand all had clubs as well, leaving just a single club left in the deck for Bohlman to hit on the river.

"It's my year," Bohlman piped up, who has already won a WSOP bracelet this summer. "Tell your friends."

Jason Koon raised in early position to 21,000 before David Wang three-bet to 75,000. Action folded back to Koon, who made the call.

The dealer spread a Q♣9♦7♠ flop, and Koon decided to take control of the pot, leading out for 159,000.

Wang counted out the call but ultimately returned his cards to the dealer.

Nick Vazquez

Level 11 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Todd Ivens raised to 18,000 from under the gun. Nick Schulman was the only one to give him action, making the call from the big blind.

The board came out J♥10♠7♠ and Schulman took over the betting lead. He fired out for pot, which was 49,000. Ivens made the call.

On the J♦ turn, Schulman again bet the pot, to which Ivens quickly responded with a fold.

Stephen Chidwick is also seated at this table, having recently reentered.

Erick Torres

Level 11 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu and Jacob Hamed clashed in a pot where each player threw in 37,000 each preflop to set the stage for the flop.

When the J♥9♠4♦ flop came, Hamed announced a pot-sized bet, Negreanu responded by going all-in, and was called by Hamed.

Daniel Negreanu: A♠K♣Q♥10♥ All in
Jacob Hamed: A♦K♦J♠5♠

Negreanu held a wrap, but the 7♣ turn and the 2♣ did not improve his hand to send him to the rail.

Level 11 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Iaroslav Boiko limped in from under the gun and Eric Wasserson raised the pot to 23,000 in the cutoff. Pedro Bromfman called on the button and Boiko limp-raised to 97,000. Wasserson and Bromfman just called as the dealer fanned the flop of J♠7♥5♥.

Within seconds, all three players had their chips in the middle with Wasserson holding the shortest of just over 50,000. Bromfman was at risk for around the same and Boiko had them both covered.

Eric Wasserson: K♠J♣9♣3♠ All in
Pedro Bromfman: K♥K♣Q♥6♠ All in
Iaroslav Boiko: A♠A♣6♦5♦

The 8♣ and J♥ completed the runout to give Bromfman a king-high flush and scoop the pot, eliminating Wasserson in the process.

"Run like me!" Wasserson pointed to Bromfman's hand. "Calling the guy who has aces every hand. Run like me!"

Pedro Bromfman	490,000 366,000	366,000

Level 11 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jacob Hamed limped from the hijack, and Daniel Negreanu raised to 18,000 next to act. Hamed made the call.

The board came out a monotone J♣10♣5♣ and Hamed checked. Negreanu bet 16,000, and Hamed stuck around to see the turn.

That turn went check-check when the 5♥ fell, and then on the river 6♥, Hamed bet the size of the pot. The total bet was 88,000.

Negreanu accused his opponent of getting to greedy, before folding.

Jacob Hamed	895,000 438,000	438,000
Daniel Negreanu	152,000 62,000	62,000
