The River For The Win(ter)

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

Action was picked up on a flop in a pot between Osmin Dardon in late position and Sean Winter in the cutoff.

The flop read 1062 and Dardon checked over to Winter who bet 7,500 and Dardon called.

On the turn J, Dardon checked over to Winter who bet 17,000 and Dardon called.

"I have a pair," said Dardon after both players checked the 8 river. Neither one of them turned over their hands immediately.

"I believe you," said Winter as he waited for Dardon to turn over his hand. Dardon showed 44 for a pair of fours, but it was second best against Winter's 98 for a pair of eights.

"You rivered me?" asked Dardon as he stared at the board, while Winter raked in the pot.

Arredondomeza Shows One Card to Quaade

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

Jose Arredondomeza raised to 4,400 from middle position and only Thomas Quaade called from the big blind.

Heads-up to the A25 flop, where Quaade knuckled the action over to Arredondomeza, who bet 7,000. Quaade called.

The 10 turn went check-check for the K to appear on the river. Quaade checked for the last time and Arredondomeza fired out 12,000 into the middle. Quaade went into the tank for quite some time before asking Arredondomeza, "You show if I fold?" Arredondomeza didn't respond and after a few more moments, Quaade reluctantly folded.

Arredondomeza turned over the A for top pair as he stacked his newly found chips.

Ostapchenko Wins Two in a Row

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

In a pot of 34,000, Andrew Ostapchenko checked from early position to Daniele Primerano on the button on a completed board of 79446.

Primerano then added 23,000 to the pot, which Ostapchenko raised to 75,000. Primerano spent enough time in the tank for the clock to be called.

When his countdown started, he made a quick fold to surrender the pot, and Ostapchenko tabled the A as he raked in the chips.

The next hand, Ostapchenko raised to 2,500 under the gun. Frederic Delval called in the next seat over, and Fabrizio Nolano did so on the button. Jesse Lonis defended his big blind, and the 627 flop was fanned.

Ostapchenko continued for 3,000, which was called by Delval and Nolano. Lonis check-folded, and the remaining trio checked through the 7 turn and 3 river.

Ostapchenko tabled QQ, and he was awarded back-to-back pots when his opponents' cards hit the muck.

Hasper's Pressure Pays

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

Antony Cragg raised from early position to 2,500 before seeing Wietse Hasper three-bet from the hijack to 7,000. Action folded back to Cragg, who made the call.

Both players checked on the A86 flop, but when Cragg checked again on the J turn, Hasper picked his betting lead back up, putting 6,500 into the middle. Cragg made the call, and before the dealer burned and turned a river card.

The dealer added the A to the board, and when Cragg checked for a third time, Hasper increased the pressure. He assembled a bet of 16,500 and pushed it into the middle. Cragg spent some time trying to piece together Hasper's story, and after a minute or two had passed, he chose just to fold.

Mccully Gets So Unlucky on the River

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

Action was joined with the board showing 3355, and Sunny So had tossed out a bet of 25,000. Joshua Mccully was deep in the tank and eventually made the call.

The river brought the J, and now So moved all in, and he had Mccully covered. Mccully went deeper into the tank, now running all the permutations through of what So could have, and numerous times he mentioned maybe he had flopped quads.

Mccully eventually made the call and tabled K5 only to be flabbergasted when So turned over JJ for a rivered better full house to send Mccully to the rail.

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

Tablemates stared in disbelief as Ariel Reid and Tony Bracy were eliminated at the same time in the coolest of coolers after all the chips were in preflop.

Ariel Reid: KKAll in
Tony Bracy: KKAll in
David Wells: AA

The runout of 4QQ46 supplied no drama as Reid and Bracy packed up their belongings, said their goodbyes and headed for the exits.

Meanwhile, David Wells stacked the chips and thanked the dealer for his pocket aces.

Locquet Makes the Right Call with Middle Pair

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

Romain Locquet opened from early position with 54, and after action folded around, Loni Hui three-bet to 9,000 from middle position holding Q10. Locquet made the call, and the two went to a flop.

The KA3 flop offered both players some possibilities, and after Locquet checked, Hui continued for 6,000. Locquet called again.

The K turn saw both players slow down and check, bringing the 5 on the river. Locquet paired his five and checked once more. Hui responded with a sizable bet of 18,000, putting Locquet to the test.

After a long tank, Locquet stuck in the hero-call, and it turned out to be the right one, as his modest pair of fives was enough to drag in the pot.

Granik Adds a Little

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

Slaven Popov kicked the action off with a raise to 2,700 and immediately faced a three-bet from David Granik, one seat to his left, to 7,100. The action folded back to Popov, who made the call.

Both players checked the J48 flop, taking them to the A turn.

The action was short and sweet from that point, as Popov checked, before promptly folding to Granik's delayed continuation-bet of 5,000.

Raymond Yee shoved all in for around 59,400 on a board of 571065 and a pot of 50,000. Fehim Hajdari went into the tank and took considerable time thinking about his options. After quite some time, he decided to concede his hand and the pot to Yee.

Jewell Catches Depaulo's Hand in the Cookie Jar

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

Three ways on a board of 710K5 with a large pot already in the middle, Darren Elias checked from early position to Kurt Jewell, who bet 13,500 from middle position. Ryan Depaulo called from the hijack and Elias folded.

The 2 completed the board and Jewell checked to Depaulo, who fired a hefty 85,000 into the middle.

Jewell tanked for a while, but eventually decided to call and Depaulo showed AJ for a busted combo draw.

Jewell tabled AK for top pair and was sent the substantial pot.
