Jon Kyte
Jon Kyte

Iago Sturzeneker opened to 1,200 from the button, Easton Oreman called from the small blind and Jon Kyte three-bet to 8,000 from the big blind. Only Sturzeneker called.

The flop came 5J7. and Sturzeneker called a 9,000 continuation bet from Kyte.

Both players checked the 6 turn leading to the A river. Kyte checked and Sturzeneker shoved, covering Kyte who had 51,000 behind. Kyte contemplated for a couple minutes before calling off for his tournament life.

Sturzeneker showed 88 for a pair and two blockers to the nut-straight. Kyte tabled A6 for two pair to secure a full double up.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Gabriel Schroeder
Gabriel Schroeder

From the big blind, Gabriel Schroeder fired out a bet of 12,500 on the turn of a board that showed 3865. Jason Darland jammed over the top for 49,600 from middle position, causing Schroeder to ponder for a while before ultimately making the call.

Jason Darland: 97 All in
Gabriel Schroeder: 63

Darland had the nut straight against the two pair of Schroeder and just needed to fade a board-pairing river to double-up into the six-figure club.

A clean K dropped on the river and Darland doubled up at the expense of Schroeder.

Greenwood Takes it on the Turn

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Lucas Greenwood
Lucas Greenwood

Lucas Greenwood opened to 1,200 from the cutoff, but Nikola Gasevic had a hand he felt was worth more. Playing from the small blind, he put in a three-bet to 3,500. Action then folded back to Greenwood, who made the call.

Gasevic continued his aggression with a bet of 2,800 on the very connected 564 flop, which again, Greenwood called.

The 7 turn brought four to a straight in both directions, and Gasevic elected to check. Greenwood accepted the invitation to take over the betting lead and placed a substantial wager of 8,000.

Gasevic did take some time to deliberate, but ultimately decided to return his cards to the dealer.

Tran on the Wrong End of Cooler

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Timmy Tran
Timmy Tran

Four players saw the dealer reveal a flop of 9107. Timmy Tran bet out from the big blind and was by a raise to 8,000 by Clinton Branchen in the hijack. After two folds, Tran jammed for 32,000, which was instantly called by Branchen.

Timmy Tran: 77 All in
Clinton Branchen: 99

Both players held a set, but unfortunately for Tran, his was the lowest one. There was no miracle one-outer on the K turn or 4 river, and Tran headed for the nearest exit.

Heads-up on a completed board of 1028JJ with several thousand in the middle, Matt Hunt wagered 4,000 from the hijack and Ian Cohen raised to 35,500 on the button — leaving himself just 300 behind.

Hunt tanked a bit before sticking in a call and Cohen showed A4 for a stone bluff.

Hunt revealed 55, which got a "Nice call!" from several of his tablemates as he collected the pot.

MenQi Chen four-bet to 10,100 from the small blind, and Bradley Rich called in the hijack. Chen continued for 5,000 on the 275 flop, which Rich min-raised to 10,000. Meng flicked in a call, after which the 8 turn was dealt.

Both players checked, resulting in the 8 river arriving on the board. Chen slid in enough chips to put Rich all-in for 38,000. After some thought, Rich let his hand go, tabling QQ for an overpair.

Chen just showed the K as he was awarded the pot, seeing him chip up to a six-figure stack.

The 10 turn checked through to the Q river. Sturzneker checked again, after which Oreman bombed 14,500 chips on the felt. Jones let his hand go, but Sturzeneker tossed in calling chips.

Oreman could only show a bluff with his 65, leaving Sturzeneker to win the pot, as he had called with A9 for just ace-high.
