Aggressive River Bet Works for Fahs

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With the pot already swelled, the flop read J89 and both Abdelilah Fahs in the small blind and Weijie Zhang in the big blind checked to see the 2 drop on the turn.

Fahs bet out for 1,600, and Zhang called. The 5 came on the river and Fahs moved all in for 15,000, which sent Zhang into the tank before he eventually released his hand to send the pot to Fahs with no showdown.

Short Stacks Already Getting Busy

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

David Attride: 88

No help for Hinton on the 926Q10 runout, and he was sent home for an early bath! There are lots of short stacks around the tables already, and all-in action is heating up.
