Gerritse Triples, Gryko Eliminates Kashat

Stewart Morrison

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Firas Kashat opened under the gun to 70,000, and Richard Gryko called in middle position. The short-stacked Dirk Gerritse called from the small blind, too.

The dealer fanned out a J♥2♦3♠ flop, and when Gerritse checked, Kashat continued for 115,000. Gryko called before Gerritse moved all in for 140,000. Both Kashat and Gryko called.

The turn 7♥ saw Kashat slow down, allowing Gryko to take over the betting lead, as he moved all in. Kashat was the covered player and made the call.

Dirk Gerritse: A♣J♣4♠2♠ All in
Firas Kashat: Q♥10♥9♦8♣ All in
Richard Gryko: Q♠Q♣10♦7♠

The river A♦ confirmed the triple-up for Gerritse, who improved to a better two pair on the river. Kashat had missed all of his draws, which meant Gryko won the side pot, and Kashat headed to the exit.

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Dylan Weisman raised to 70,000 in the cutoff. Ka Kwan Lau called in the small blind, and then Michael Duek potted from the big blind. Weisman then moved all in, Lau folded, and Duek called.

Dylan Weisman: A♥Q♠J♥J♦ All in
Michael Duek: A♦K♥9♥7♦

The board ran out8♦5♦2♣6♥K♣ and Duek won the pot, and Weisman was eliminated. Duek is coming a second-place finish in the $25,000 High Roller PLO event that finished yesterday, so he'll obviously be looking to carry that success into this event.

Shaun Deeb limped in from the hijack, and Bryn Kenney followed suit in the cutoff. Evan Krentzman then raised to 130,000 on the button, seeing both Deeb and Kenney call.

It checked to Krentzman on the 7♥7♦J♥ flop, who continued for 125,000. Deeb then pushed all in, covering both opponents. Kenney called off his stack of 510,000, causing Krentzman to muck his cards.

Bryn Kenney: Q♣J♣9♥7♠ All in
Shaun Deeb: J♠10♠8♠7♣

Both players had flopped sevens full of jacks. The 2♦5♦ runout changed nothing, chopping up the pot.

Action was followed from the A♠Q♠6♠ flop. Joao Simao bet 45,000 on the button and Jeffrey Hakim called the small blind. Artur Martirosian folded from the big blind.

The 5♣ was turned and Hakim bet out 150,000. Simao called, taking them to the 7♠ river.

Hakim jammed for 365,000 on the river, and Simao used two time banks before making the call.

Jeffrey Hakim: KxKx9♦6♥ All in
Joao Simao: A♥Q♣9♠2♣

Hakim was eliminated from the tournament after Simao took the pot with two pair.
