No-name Hand Takes Down Bullets and Rockets

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Chips were being sorted after the finish of a hand that had Yaron Malki all in against two players with significantly more chips and far better starting hands.

Yaron Malki: 56All in
Kevin Abecassis: KK
Kimberly Moore: AA

Malki — holding hand without a nickname — got into the pot from early position against the two blinds in Moore (small) and Abecassis (big), but the cards fell in his favor.

With a runout of 87398, he hit a straight on the turn for the triple-up. Moore took down a smaller side pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Blake Bohn raised to 2,000 from the cutoff, only for Mark Finnane to three-bet to 6,300 from the button. Zhengpeng Liu then four-bet to 20,500 from the small blind, and action was folded back around to Bohn, who five-bet cold jammed all in for 41,300.

Finnane folded, and Liu snap called.

Blake Bohn: AKAll in
Zhengpeng Liu: AJ

The board ran out 556310 to give Bohn a double up and more.

Autran Gets There and Gets Paid

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action went four ways to a flop of Q910. With over 10,000 in the middle, the under-the-gun Ayaz Mahmood was the initial preflop raiser and continued with a bet of 5,000. Only Jean Autran in the hijack continued.

The turn landed the 5 and action went check-check, bringing the 7 river. Mahmood checked again and Autran fired out a bet of 15,000.

After a moment of thought, Mahmood flicked in the call only to see the bad news when Autran turned over 86 for the straight.

Davis Blasts Off with Pocket Rockets

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Andre Akkari raised to 2,200 from under the gun, Zhengpeng Liu then three-bet to 5,500. Matthew Davis then went all in from the big blind for roughly 30,000. Andre Akkari folded, and Liu made the call and was shown the bad news.

Matthew Davis: AA All in
Zhengpeng Liu: AJ

The final board read 435J8, giving Davis a vital double up.

Jacks Hold for Blomdahl

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Corey Blomdahl opened to 2,200 from early position, only for Bogdan Munteanu to three-bet to 6,000 from middle position. Maksim Kniter also in middle position flat called, but then Cameron Collins in late position four-bet all in for 15,500.

Blomdahl then five-bet all in for 46,000, and he had all players covered. Munteanu and Kniter folded.

Cameron Collins: AKAll in
Corey Blomdahl: JJ

A tasty looking flop of Q3J for Blomdahl and Collins was in trouble and needed to hit a ten to stay alive. No such luck on the 5 turn, and even the K river didn't help, and he was sent to the rail.

Ferraro Jams the Turn

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Gal Naim raised to 2,000 in early position and Alan Ferraro flatted in late position.

The flop came 5K10 and Naim bet 1,000. Ferraro put in a min-raise to 2,000 and Naim called.

On the 5 turn, Naim checked and Ferraro bet 1,000. Naim then bumped it up to 6,000 and Ferraro responded by reraising all in for 16,800 total to put himself at risk.

Naim took some time to think through his decision before ultimately tossing his cards into the muck.
