Lady Luck

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

When action folded to Stephen Chidwick in the cutoff, he elected to limp in. The player in the small blind did the same before seeing Kurtis Tinfow, in the big blind, raise to 48,000. Chidwick called, but the small blind got out of the way.

Tinfow continued for 120,000 on the Q54 flop, and again, Chidwick called.

The 4 turn didn't slow the action as Tinfow moved all in for 94,000; a bet which Chidwick snap-called.

Kurtis Tinfow: AAQJ All in
Stephen Chidwick: J874

Chidwick had turned trips, which had Tinfow in bad shape. However, the river Q came to his rescue, improving him to better trips than Chidwick.

Tinfow sat back down in his seat as the dealer pushed the pot his way.

Joao Estanislau
Joao Estanislau

Joao Estanislau raised to 42,000 and Eric Cloutier called. Sonny Franco then called all-in for 35,000 on the button before Andrew Ostapchenko bumped it up to 215,000 in the small blind. Estanislau called and Cloutier folded, while Franco was already at risk.

The flop came QJ7 and Ostapchenko checkec, Estanislau jammed for 247,000 and Ostapchenko reluctantly folded.

Sonny Franco: AJ102 All in
Joao Estanislau: 10875

The 10 turn and 9 river gave Franco the superior flush to win the side pot, Estanislau raked in the larger side pot to chip up.

Steinberg Septuples; Milgrom Eliminated

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Steve Yagudaev raised to 30,000 under the gun, Nicolas Milgrom committed his remaining 4,000 before Mark Steinberg did the same, also with a stack of just 4,000. That ended the preflop action, and the players revealed their cards.

Nicolas Milgrom: AQ64 All in
Mark Steinberg: JJ73 All in
Steve Yagudaev: AQJ3

The 4K3 flop gave Milgrom hope of a spin-up, flopping a flush draw, and it was instant service with the turn 2.

The dealer put out the K river, but Steinberg was already on his way out the door as Milgrom already had the pot wrapped up.

Radcliffe Eliminated by Frank

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

As soon as the bubble had burst, several short stacks got their chips into the middle. Among them was also Paul Radcliffe, who was up against Christopher Frank with a repot. Ryan Hoenig had invested 80,000 by then and opted to fold when Frank reraised the pot behind.

Paul Radcliffe: KQ1010 All in
Christopher Frank: KK65

The JJ924 board changed nothing despite some sweat with the open-ended straight draw, sending Radcliffe to the rail.

Joao Estanislau: 10943

Two Flopped Boats

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Mike Gorodinsky
Mike Gorodinsky

Mike Gorodinsky started the action with a limp in the cutoff, prompting the button and Venkat Chivukula, in the small blind, to do the same. The big blind player checked, and the four went to a flop.

Action checked around to the button on the 7KK flop, who bet 20,000. Chivukula called, the big blind folded, but Gorodinsky executed a check-raise to 65,000. The player on the button folded, but Chivukula called once again.

Chivukula checked for a second time on the A flop, but Gorodinsky wasn't done betting, pushing out a bet of 55,000, which Chivukula called.

The river 3 slowed the action down, with both players checking, aware of the bubble waiting to burst. Chivukula turned over Q776 for a flopped full house, but was given the bad news when Gorodinsky showed he had flopped a bigger full house with K1097.

Anson Tsang
Anson Tsang

Anson Tsang raised it up on the button and then called when Joshua Scott got it in for the last 53,000 from the big blind.

Joshua Scott: KK96 All in
Anson Tsang: AA94

The A105 flop left Scott on the ropes, and he could not escape after the 3 turn nor J river as the field went one step closer to bursting the bubble.

Four-Bet Preflop; Van Hoof Bests Ivey

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Jorryt van Hoof opened from under the gun to 35,000, and when action folded to Phil Ivey, he three-bet to 120,000. The players in the blinds got out of the way before Van Hoof put in the four-bet to 410,000. After confirming the bet amount, Ivey made the call.

The dealer spread a 10510 flop, and after a little bit of time to consider his options, Van Hoof moved all in, covering Ivey's stack.

Ivey wasted little time in folding, and Van Hoof pulled in the substantial pot.
