Schubert Smiley After Double

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nico Schubert found himself all in and at risk after his shove was called by Zachary Smiley. The good news is that he was miles ahead, and needed to hope his opponent couldn't improve.

Nico Schubert: KK All in
Zachary Smiley: JJ

The board ran out nice and low for Schubert, as the 683105 runout was without sweat, and he got back above starting stack.

Heaton Applies Maximum Pressure

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Three players headed to a turn with a pot worth roughly 23,000 in the middle, and the flop action complete on the 544 board.

The dealer burned and turned the 7 turn, and Kenneth Heaton, in the big blind, placed a bet of 17,500. The player who started the hand under the gun folded, but Nicholas Beecher called from middle position.

When the river came the 10, Heaton applied the maximum pressure possible. Covering his opponent's stack, he moved all in, a bet worth an effective 47,300.

Beecher then spent some time in the tank, piecing together the action. Ultimately, he decided a fold was in order and tossed his cards towards the muck.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nana Sanechika raised to 2,500 in the hijack and Sviatoslav Belov three-bet to 10,000 in the small blind. Sanechika called and they saw a flop of Q37.

Belov continued for 7,500 and Sanechika called. Belov bet another 20,000 on the 6 turn and Sanechika again called.

The river was the 5 and Belov moved all in for 37,200. Sanechika snap-called with KQ, but Belov had 109 for a flopped flush to win the pot and double up.

"Are you a cash game player? Because cash game players don't call in the small blind," a tablemate said to Belov.

"Actually, I'm recreational," Belov replied.

Gorham Sends Spector Packing

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
James Gorham
James Gorham

James Gorham raised from under the gun and called a three-bet by Sean Spector in the big blind. The latter then fired three barrels on a board of K325A, all of which Gorham called. It was 20,000 to go on the turn and around 60,000 shove on the river.

"I don't like it but I call," Gorham immediately said and Spector tabled the AK for the top two pair. Gorham had that beat with 22 for a set of deuces.

In the next hand, Ilan Boujenah raised to 2,400 and received multiple callers including Gorham in the big blind. The J75 flop saw Dimitrios Kilintaris bet 3,500 and Brian Andrews called. Gorham check-raised to 16,000 and Boujenah folded while the other two players called.

No more betting action followed on the 9 turn and 9 river for Gorham to reveal the 75. Kilintaris had that beat with the AJ to claim the last pot before their table broke.
