Sibley Rivers Full House

Sava Krink

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

It was a battle of the blinds situation with Andjelko Andrejevic in the small blind calling and Brent Sibley checking preflop.

On the A♥10♠2♦ flop, Andrejevic bet 30,000 and Sibley called.

The same situation arose on the 10♦ turn, Andrejevic bet 100,000 this time, and Sibley made the call.

Andrejevic didn't feel like betting the 9♥ river, and he checked. Sibley took his time, counted his stack, and after a while, he made a bet of 170,000, prompting Andrejevic to fold. Sibley then tabled 10♣9♦ for a full house to show that Andrejevic made a right fold.

Confusion in the 6-Max

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Despite all of the players spending minutes in the tank waiting for pay jumps, that is not the reason for the tournament currently being paused. While the tournament director was in the process of breaking a table, three different tables asked for the clock to be called. During that, the entire field was accidentally redrawn with seven tables remaining.

For now, the clock has been paused until the tournament directors sort out the confusion and get everyone seated in their correct places.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

There was a raise to 60,000 and Jonas Mackoff shipped all in for 430,000 in the small blind. Eric Yanovsky joined the rest of the field by tanking for the next pay jump before shoving all in for slightly more. The original raiser folded and the two hands were tabled.

Jonas Mackoff: J♣J♦ All in
Eric Yanovsky: 9♠9♦

The flop came 9♣8♦6♠ and Yanovsky took the lead with a set of nines. The 5♥ and 6♦ runout improved Yanovsky to a full house and Mackoff was eliminated.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With around 180,000 in the pot, the flop came 7♠7♣5♥ and three players were in the mix. Srikanth Yadlapati checked from the small blind, Jonas Mackoff followed suit in the big blind, and Eric Yanovsky fired for 70,000 from middle position. Both blinds called to see the turn.

The K♥ hit the felt, and all three checked.

On the 7♥ river, Yadlapati led out for 80,000. Mackoff took a while before making the call, and the action was now on Yanovsky. After glancing at his cards and chips, he shook his head and muttered, “I’m such a nit,” before tossing in the call.

Yadlapati showed A♦8♥ for ace high. Mackoff revealed A♣8♣, also ace high. But it was Yanovsky who turned over K♦K♠ for a full house, kings full of sevens, scooping the pot with a slight look of frustration despite the win.
