Early Quads for Greene

Stewart Morrison

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

Dario Sammartino opened from the hijack to 18,000, and the small blind called. Action was then on Jonathan Greene in the big blind, who elected to three-bet. Sammartino quickly four-bet, which forced the small blind out, and Greene called off the remainder of his stack.

Jonathan Greene: A♥A♦8♦2♦ All in
Dario Sammartino: K♥K♣Q♥9♦

The flop came down A♠9♠6♥, and it was a long way back for Sammartino.

The 6♠ sealed the deal, confirming Greene's double up, and the river A♣ was the icing on the cake, giving him four-of-a-kind.

David Benyamine raised to 18,000 in the cutoff and Joni Jouhkimainen reraised the pot to 59,000 from the small blind. Benyamine just called and they went heads-up to a flop of K♠Q♠6♣. Jouhkimainen tossed in a bet of 91,000, the exact amount Benyamine had remaining, which he called.

David Benyamine: K♥K♦6♦2♥ All in
Joni Jouhkimainen: A♠Q♥9♥6♠

Benyamine flopped a set of kings but was left in second place after the J♠ rolled off on the turn to give Jouhkimainen a flush. The river was the 10♦ and Benyamine headed to the rail while the Finn collected the pot.

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

Jesse Lonis raised in the cutoff to 12,000. Jordan Glazer was next to act on the button, and he announced a pot-sized raised. The amount was 53,000. Lonis decided to peel and take a flop.

The flop was 10♥6♣3♠, and Lonis checked. Glazer again bet the pot, and Lonis quickly folded.

Besides Lonis, Issac Haxton is another top player at this table, and he has a healthy chip stack.

Erick Torres

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

Jonathan Greene opened the hand with a raise to 15,000 from early position. Dario Sammartino called from the button, and Viktor Blom came along from the big blind.

Blom checked the A♣7♦4♣ flop. Greene continued for 28,000 and was called by Sammartino. Blom bowed out and folded on the flop.

The 10♦ turn resulted in a pot-sized bet of 110,000. Sammartino thought for a moment before he folded.

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

Vasil Medarov opened to 13,000 in early position and Martin Dam threw in 18,000 from the big blind, thinking that Medarov's raise was a full pot-size. Dam was forced to three-bet to 21,000 but Medarov opted to just call.

The flop came A♦5♠4♥ and Dam check-called an actual bet of 18,000 from Medarov this time.

"You raised again," Shaun Deeb joked with him.

The turn brought the 9♣ and both players checked to the K♥ on the river. Dam led out with a bet of 25,000 this time and Medarov dumped his cards into the muck.

Martin Dam	645,000 68,000	68,000

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

Charles Pacheco raised from the button to 13,000 before Ryan Christopherson three-bet from the small blind to 35,000. The big blind got out of the way, and Pachecho called.

The flop J♦9♠2♠ saw Christopherson continue for 50,000, covering Pacheco's stack. Pacheco folded, leaving himself 34,000 behind.

The very next hand, Pacheco raised again to 13,000, and this time it was Haxton's turn to three-bet from the small blind. His raise was enough to set Pacheco all-in, and Pacheco called.

Charles Pacheco: A♦A♠4♦3♠ All in
Isaac Haxton: A♥Q♥Q♦6♠

The case ace arrived on the 8♠K♣A♣ flop, improving Pacheco to top set.

The turn 10♣ and river 2♥ didn't change the outcome, and Pacheco doubled up.

Erick Torres

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

Talal Shakerichi began the hand with a limp from under the gun. The table folded to Farid Jattin in the cutoff, who chose to raise to 22,000. Billy Tarango called from the small blind, and Shakerchi continued with a call.

All three players checked the 9♥3♣7♥ flop to bring on the Q♣ turn. Tarango bet 40,000, which led to a fold from Shakerchi and a call from Jattin.

Tarango continued to bet on the K♠ river firing 70,000. Jattin raised to 190,000. Tarango tanked before sliding out a call. Jattin showed A♠J♦10♣9♠ for a rivered straight.
