Frustration Shows

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Ramana Epparla
Ramana Epparla

Ramana Epparla raised on the button to 1,200 and was met with immediate resistance in the form of a three-bet to 3,300 by Dustin Holladay, in the small blind. The big blind considered his options before folding, and Epparla immediately flicked in the call. "I knew you weren't going to fold", quipped Holladay, implying some history between the two.

Holladay continued for 3,000 on the 479 flop, and Epparla wasted no time in calling.

When the dealer flipped the 8 turn, Holladay slowed down with a check, and Epparla sensed his opportunity, putting out a bet of 2,000. Holladay called to see the final card.

The K river was dealt, and Holladay proceeded with another check. Epparla casually flicked in a 5,000 chip, which elicited an immediate, frustrated fold from Holladay.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Claudiu Burlacu checked from early position on a flop of 3J4 and Lejdin Fazlibegu bet 2,000 from the button. Burlacu, who was munching down on some sort of protein bar, tossed in the call.

Burlacu took another nibble of his post-dinner snack before checking the J turn over to Fazlibeg. Fazlibegu bet 4,000, which Burlacu called.

The 2 completed the board and Burlacu checked. Fazlibegu put out a big bet of 16,000, and Burlacu had a decision to make. A few more bites of his nutritious bar occurred before Burlacu decided to lay his hand down and give up the pot to Fazlibegu.

Two Barrells Takes It

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

The action was joined as Keanon Simon and Justin Goldman were dealt a flop of 1053 in a three-bet pot.

Simon checked to Goldman, the preflop aggressor, who placed a bet of 3,500, which Simon called.

The turn brought the A, and when checked to him again, Goldman continued the aggression. This time his bet of 5,000 would do the trick, as Simon slid his cards back to the dealer.
