Davies Runs Hot After Late Entry

Christian Zetzsche

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Seth Davies peeled against a reraise to 44,000 by Qiaonan Liu in the small blind and came along on the button. Liu jammed the last bit of his stack on the A♦7♣4♦ flop and Davies called, exclaiming, "set of fours," right away.

Qiaonan Liu: A♠Q♠J♦10♥ All in
Seth Davies: 4♥4♠3♦3♠

The 3♥ turn gave Davies a second set and left Liu drawing dead prior to the 9♣ river.

"You are running so hot," Pei Li sighed.

Sonny Franco got it in for 57,000 preflop and was looked up by Anson Tsang to create the following showdown.

Sonny Franco: A♦J♣10♦6♥ All in
Anson Tsang: A♣A♥4♥3♦

The Q♥J♠10♥ flop vaulted Franco into the lead with his two pair. Tsang had the flush draw to go with his aces but the 6♠ turn and 5♠ river kept Franco in contention.

Zampas Avoids Knockout By Lamb

Christian Zetzsche

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With the turn showing Q♥J♣5♦3♥, Ben Lamb moved forward a tower of T-5,000 chips and Andreas Zampas got it in for his last 162,000 to create the following showdown.

Andreas Zampas: Q♦J♦9♥2♠ All in
Ben Lamb: K♥K♦10♦2♥

Lamb's wrap and flush draw along with the overpair had a lot of equity but the 8♦ river was not among his outs, as he forked over a large portion of his stack before their table broke shortly after.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Frank Brannan made it 22,000 to go from the hijack with Hen Rosilio calling from the cutoff. Kasparas Klezys squeezed to 66,000, which only Brannan called.

Brannan knuckled the action over to Klezys on the 5♦A♥9♣ flop. Klezys bet 40,000, which Brannan called.

Both players checked the 5♣ turn and 8♣ river. Brannan tabled an ace-high flush with A♣Q♣10♠6♠ and Klezys mucked.

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick raised to 18,000 in the hijack and was called by Bryn Kenney on the button and Igor Zektser in the big blind. The flop came Q♦6♥3♥ and Chidwick continued with a bet of 20,000. Kenney called and Zektser threw his cards away, leaving himself with just a few chips.

The turn was the 10♥ and Chidwick continued the story with a bet of 65,000. Kenney had enough and slung his cards into the muck, sending another pot to Chidwick.

Van Hoof Picks Off the Bluff

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Stewart Morrison

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

The action started with the under-the-gun player limping in, encouraging Jorryt van Hoof to do the same from the hijack. Moonho Seo then raised to 30,000 from the cutoff, and only the two limpers called.

When checked to, Seo continued for 35,000 on the 4♥Q♣4♣ flop. Van Hoof was the only player to call, and they went to a turn.

Both players checked the 6♣ turn, and when the dealer turned the Q♠ river over, Van Hoof led out for 25,000.

Seo took a moment before raising to 125,000, and this put Van Hoof into the tank. After a minute or so, he made the call and was shown the good news.

Seo revealed his 10♠7♥6♠5♥, which was no good versus Van Hoof's flush-making 9♣9♦7♠5♣.
