Roberts Pips Vitch

Level 9

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Christopher Vitch opened the button to 12,000 before Christian Roberts three-bet to 55,000 from the big blind, and Vitch called.

Both players stood pat. Roberts elected to check to Vitch who bet 60,000, and Roberts called after a small tank.

Christopher Vitch: 10x8x7x6x3x
Christian Roberts: 10x8x5x3x2x

Both players had a ten-eight but Roberts' was better as he dragged one off the chip leader.

Deeb Trouble

Level 9
Shaun Deeb
Shaun Deeb

Pot-Limit Omaha

Andrew Yeh raised to 12,000 from under the gun and Daniel Negreanu called from the next seat as Shaun Deeb called in the cutoff.

Yeh and Negreanu checked on the flop of 1089 and Deeb bet 35,000. Yeh called and Negreanu folded. Yeh checked again on the 2 turn and Deeb sized up to 119,000. Yeh raised to around 400,000 and Deeb called off with less.

Shaun Deeb: 9976 All in
Andrew Yeh: J1097

Deeb had run into everything as his opponent had the better straight with a redraw to hearts.

"God, that's the worst hand I could possibly be against," said Deeb.

Deeb needed the board to pair to stay alive, but the K river bricked off. Deeb was sent to the rail, but his two Team Lucky compatriots Josh Arieh and Matt Glatz are still alive at another table.

Phil Hui
Phil Hui

Stud Hi-Lo

Phil Hui: XxXx/3K79/Xx
Phil Hellmuth: 710/6585/Q - folded on seventh street
Esther Taylor: XxXx/710 - folded on fourth street

Esther Taylor completed, Phil Hellmuth called and Phil Hui defended from the bring in.

On fourth street Hui checked, Taylor checked, Hellmuth bet, Hui called and Taylor folded. Hellmuth then bet fifth and sixth street with Hui calling each time.

On seventh street Hellmuth checked and Hui bet. Hellmuth folded, revealing his down cards to show he had a flush draw on fourth street, and then both an open-ended straight draw and low draw on fifth street, before completely bricking sixth and seventh.
