A Time to Double

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jonah Labranche was all-in and at risk from the small blind and up against Ryan Laplante, who sat under the gun.

Ryan Laplante: 1010

Both had pocket pairs, but Laplante didn't improve on the 87J22 runout, and Labranche secured the double with aces.

A few tables across, Bruno Mota had just doubled up in the big blind against James Jeffrey on the button after Mota was all-in for his remaining 50,000 with pocket threes.

Bruno Mota: 33All in
James Jeffrey: KQ

The 10102 flop gave Mota two pair and not much of a sweat. The 10 turn gave Mota a boat, and the 5 river secured him the double.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Play was underway with a main pot of around 60,000 and a side pot of around 30,000. Kurt Fitzgerald, all-in on the main pot was waiting with Jeremy Wien and Marius Gierse for the dealer to fan out the flop.

The flop came Q9A. Wien bet 45,000 which was enough push Gierse out of the side. Wien scooped the side pot and headed to showdown against Fitzgerald.

Kurt Fitzgerald: JJ All in
Jeremy Wien: 109

Wien had bottom pair but couldn't beat Fitzgerald's jacks. The runout 73 didn't improve Wien's hand. The dealer awarded the main pot to Fitzgerald, resulting in a triple up for him.
