Hunichen Hits Setback

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Chris Hunichen
Chris Hunichen

Daniel Echols under the gun and Chris Hunichen on the button had created a pot of 35,500 when they arrived on the 5974 turn.

Echols checked to Hunichen, who bet 14,000. After a small tank, Echols moved all in for 36,500.

"Do you have aces?" Hunichen sighed as he quickly called off.

Daniel Echols: AA All in
Chris Hunichen: KK

Hunichen had guessed correctly, and Echols' rockets held on the 4 river to secure his double-up, leaving Hunichen with a stack of about 80 big blinds.

Nathan Ivarsen raised to 900 from the button before Lewis Spencer three-bet from the small blind. Viktor Blom cold four-bet out of the big blind to 13,200, which only Spencer called.

Spencer knuckled the action over to Blom on the 35J flop, and Blom fired out a small bet of 6,800. Spencer stuck around with a call.

Two checks followed the J turn to see the 6 appear on the river. Another round of checks came and Spencer showed AK for ace-high. Blom couldn't beat it, as he turned over AK for the same hand, and the two chopped the pot.

Tiffin fired 2,100. Fitoussi stuck around and called, while Schutzbank decided to give up. The 5 river was checked to showdown, where Fitoussi's 99 was good enough to win the pot.

"Big Huni" Makes Big Shove

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Preflop, Gabriel Abusada had reraised Chris Hunichen to 7,000, and Hunichen responded by going all in for 46,400.

Abusada spent about three minutes in the tank talking to his opponent.

"I want to bust you so bad, I have the hand to do it with, too," Abusada told Hunichen.

"What, do you have? Jack-nine?" Hunichen asked.

"No, better than that," Abusada claimed.

"I want you to do what's best for you," Hunichen advised his opponent.

Eventually, despite Abusada's protests, the clock was called. He was given 30 seconds to act, and near the end of his countdown, he folded AK face up.

"That's why you don't reraise ace-king," Hunichen said as he passed his cards to the dealer and took in the chips.

Sternheimer Shows Allen a Set

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Three ways on a flop of QJ9 with over 7,000 already in the middle, Justin Allen checked from under the gun and Lawrence Brandt checked from directly behind. Philip Sternheimer bet 3,600 from the hijack, which got a call from Allen and a fold from Brandt.

Both players checked after the K turn and 3 river and Allen tabled AK for a pair of kings.

Sternheimer revealed 99 for a set of nines and added to his stack.

Lindgren Building a Stack

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Erick Lindgren
Erick Lindgren

Erick Lindgren raised in early position to 700, and only Richard Spencer called, defending his big blind.

Spencer checked in flow on the 996 flop, calling Lindgren's continuation-bet of 700.

There was no slowing down from Lindgren on the 7 turn, upping the ante with a wager of 2,000. Again, Spencer called.

The dealer flipped the river 8 and Spencer checked for a third time. Lindgren still wasn't content with the size of the pot, placing a more substantial bet of 8,000. Spencer wasn't as quick with his decision on this street, but did end up flicking in a chip to signify a call.

It was bad news for Spencer, though, as Lindgren rolled over 66 for a flopped full house. Spencer mucked his cards face down, and the dealer pushed the pot in the direction of Lindgren.
