The Elusive Four-Bet Pot, Dancing Stacks

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Damir Stefanic raised to 60,000 in early position, and James Stern made it 160,000 on his direct left.

It folded halfway across the table to Timothy Neufeld, who went all in for 490,000.

Stefanic didn't take too long mucking his hand, but when it got to Stern, he went deep in the tank. He asked for a count and was then chastised by his table-mates for trying to get a read on Neufeld's hand by talking to him.

After doing what seemed to be some mental math and gymnastics, Stern eventually passed, pushing his hand in the muck, awarding the pot to Neufeld.

Goldstein Pushes Through the Crowd

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Stephen Goldstein began the hand with a raise to 40,000 from under the gun and was called in middle position by Barbara Lewis. The table folded to Martin Kohler in the small blind, who called, and Marcelo Bottino came along from the big blind.

Kohler and Bottino checked the flop of 9K6 before Goldstein fired 45,000. Lewis called while Kohler folded. Bottino stayed in the hand to keep it three-handed, headed to the turn.

Bottino checked the 4 turn, which led to an all-in bet by Goldstein for 280,000. Lewis contemplated before she folded, and Bottino yielded with a fold to end the hand.

Ron Cole had his chips all in preflop and at risk against Michael Demeza.

Ron Cole: AK All in
Michael Demeza: JJ

Cole was on his feet, sweating the board, as it ran out 36649.

Morgan Stays Afloat

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

It was a battle of the blinds when Timothy Sullivan from the small blind and Mayo Morgan from the big blind clashed in an all-in pot with Morgan at risk for his final 95,000.

Mayo Morgan: K9All in
Timothy Sullivan: Q4

The flop was favorable to Morgan as it came 8A2. The 9 turn gave Morgan a stronger footing as he reduced Sullivan's outs, which made the 4 river harmless as Morgan scored the double.

Straight for Weston

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Marcus Weston shoved for 70,000 from middle position, which led to a call from Perry Burrell from the cutoff.

Marcus Weston: 88All in
Perry Burrell: QQ

Weston needed some help to stay in the tournament, and the 765 flop increased his equity to give him a fighting chance against Burrell's queens.

The 4 turn guaranteed Weston would at least survive the hand, and the 10 river awarded him the full double.

Myers Doubles Through Baxter

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
John Myers
John Myers

Robert Baxter raised to 55,000 and was called by John Myers, who started the day among the chip leaders, but was on a short stack at the start of this hand.

The 387 hit the felt, and Baxter went all in, covering Myers. The latter shrugged and put in the call. Baxter let out a groan, as he didn't want to be called.

John Myers: 67 All in
Robert Baxter: 22

The board completed with the 4 and Q, awarding Myers a full double with his pair of sevens.

River Shove Gets Through

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

With a full board showing 381065 and roughly 350,000 in the pot, Gary Benson and Richard Frandsen were facing off.

Benson placed a bet of 160,000, and after some thought, Frandsen responded by moving all in for 685,000.

Action returned to Benson, who took his time to calculate all the information before deciding to return his cards to the dealer, conceding the pot.
