Gougelmann Leads the River

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With 4,200 in the pot, David Gougelmann checked the KQJ flop from the cutoff, and Bruno Fitoussi checked behind on the button.

Gougelmann checked again on the 7 turn and Fitoussi bet 2,500. Gougelmann took his time and then flicked in the call.

When the Q rolled off on the river, Gougelmann led out for 5,000, which was enough to force Fitoussi to fold.

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.

Didisheim Drags a Big One at Torelli's Expense

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Heads-up on a board of 9884 with a large pot of over 30,000 in the middle, Serge Didisheim shoved for 33,200 from under the gun against Alec Torelli, who had Didisheim slightly covered from the hijack.

Torelli went deep into the tank — clearly pained over his decision as the minutes went by.

"You've got aces, huh?" Torelli mused. "Only aces?"

Torelli continued to weigh his options as his tablemates patiently waited.

"Will you show me if I fold?" Torelli inquired. No answer.

Torelli eventually slammed his cards face down into the muck and claimed to have folded kings. Didisheim collected the pot without showing.

Theze Plays It Tricky

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

In a three-bet pot worth 9,000, Rafael Souza checked the 2Q7 flop from under the gun to his neighbor Oliver Theze. Theze bet 3,000, which Souza called.

The J turn then checked through to the 4 river, where Souza led out for 3,500. Theze raised to 11,000, and Souza quickly called.

Theze tabled KK for a pair of kings, and Souza swiftly added his cards to the muck.

DeSilva Pips Souther

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Action was picked up in a heads up pot between Zane DeSilva in the big blind and William Souther in the cutoff with 2,900 in the center.

The flop rolled out J57 and DeSilva bet 2,100 which saw Souther call.

"Blackjack again," said DeSilva as he put out a second bet of 2,100 on the 6 and Souther called.

DeSilva bet 2,200 on the river 7 and Souther called.

At showdown, DeSilva turned over KJ for jacks up with a king, besting Souther's QJ for jacks up with a queen.

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.

Fong Gets Respect in Four-Way Clash

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Chong Fong opened to 1,200 from early position and was called by Serge Didisheim in the hijack, Mary Esparza on the button, and Alec Torelli in the big blind.

The flop came 76A and it was checked to Didisheim, who bet 2,400. Esparza folded, Torelli called, and Fong then check-raised to an even 10,000.

Everyone folded in turn and Fong took down the nice pot without a showdown.

Dickner Puts Sternheimer to the Test

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With two players seeing a board of 53K34 and just over 10,000 in the middle, Philip Sternheimer checked from the small blind and Marco Dickner bet 3,000 from the button. Sternheimer check-raised to 25,200 and Dickner shoved, covering Sternheimer who had a bit over 90,000 behind.

Sternheimer went into the tank until the clock was eventually called. Not long after Sternheimer opted to fold and Dickner showed that he had KK for top-boat before the pot was pushed in his direction.

Alavez Spikes the River

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

The action was picked up after Briant Alavez in the big blind shouted because he doubled up on 5Q89A against Evan Cutler in the hijack.

Briant Alavez: AA All in
Evan Cutler: 55

Cutler flopped a set but Alavez was lucky enough to hit a better set on the river to double his stack and reach 124,000.
