Devries Takes from Vitch

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Stewart Morrison

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The action started with a raise to 2,200 from the player under the gun. Carl Devries made the call in the hijack, before Christopher Vitch chose to three-bet to 9,000 from the cutoff.

The initial raiser folded, but Devries called for a second time.

The dealer spread a flop of 8♠5♠10♣ and Devries had no interest in playing in flow. He opted instead to lead out into Vitch for 12,000.

A puzzled-looking Vitch took a moment or two to decide how to respond, ultimately deciding just to return his cards to the dealer.

Arieh Makes the Correct Call to Leave Audoli Short

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Dan O'Hair

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Heads-up on a board of J♦9♠7♥5♣ with approximately 20,000 already in the middle, Baptiste Audoli bet 16,000 from the big blind and Josh Arieh called from the hijack after a bit of thought.

The Q♦ filled the river and Audoli fired 45,000 into the middle — sending Arieh deep into the tank.

Arieh asked the dealer to spread the pot and he counted out his own stack, clearly struggling with the decision.

After a couple of minutes, Arieh stuck in a call and Audoli could only turn over 10♥4♥ for a bluff.

Arieh revealed A♠9♣ for a pair of nines and was awarded the pot.

"You're sick," Kornuth said to Arieh from across the table.

Ajez Faces an Overbet

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With around 5,000 in the middle on a flop of 3♠10♣3♥ Najeem Ajez checked from the big blind and then called a bet of 1,000 out of Joseph Krasner from middle position.

The 5♣ rolled off on the turn and Ajez check-called another bet from Krasner, this time for 4,000.

The Q♣ hit the river, and Ajez checked for the last time before Krasner put out a huge overbet of 35,000. Ajez looked visibly perplexed by the bet and took a few moments before choosing to fold.
