Liu Flushes Munisekar in Three-Bet Pot

Brett Slezak

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Roeland Peeks opened to 4,000 from early position before Osbert Liu three-bet to 12,000 on his direct left. In the big blind, Devaraj Munisekar cold-called before Peeks folded.

The 7♣5♣2♦ flop checked through to the 2♣ turn which saw Munisekar lead for 12,000 and Liu quickly put in the call.

On the 3♠ river, Munisekar sized up with a 37,000 lead and Liu snap-called.

Devaraj Munisekar: Q♣Q♥
Osbert Liu: J♣9♣

Munisekar held an overpair to the board but Liu turned a flush as he got rewarded after a loose three-bet.

Jacob Ferro raised to 4,500 in the cutoff and Rene-Charles Angelil, son of the famous Celine Dion, defended his big blind. The flop came A♣J♥7♥ and Angelil check-called a bet of 3,500 from Ferro.

The turn brought the A♠ and Angelil checked again. Ferro flicked in a small bet of 5,500 and Angelil bumped it up with a raise to 16,000. Ferro thought for a minute but decided to dump his cards in the muck.

"Since it's the last 10 minutes, I'll show one," Angelil announced as he flashed the 8♣6♣ for complete air.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Andressa Paes was all in from middle position and was called by Caetano Rufino to her direct left, who had 20,000 left in his stack.

Caetano Rufino: A♣Q♠ All in
Andressa Paes: 9♠9♦

The 3♠10♥Q♣ flop was good for Rufino and he secured the double-up through Paes, leaving her with only 6,500 to play with after seeing the 3♣ and K♥ complete the board.

A few hands later, she was all in from the big blind and secured the pot after picking up a set of nines on the K♣2♣8♠9♦9♣ runout and showing Q♥9♠, putting her back up to 15,500.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

James Girouard raised to 4,000 in the hijack. Adin Aragon and Christian Calcano called in the blinds, after which a K♠3♣10♠ flop was dealt. It checked to Girouard, who bet 6,000. Aragon and Calcano both called, revealing the A♦ turn, which checked through.

The 8♥ fell on the river. It checked to Girouard once more, who bet 20,000. Aragon quickly moved in for 37,000, and Calcano mucked his cards.

Girouard entered a long tank, but eventually called his A♣J♣ for top pair. Aragon tabled Q♠J♠ for the nut straight, however, and doubled up during the final hands of Day 2d.

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In the last hand of the evening for the table and the Horseshoe Blue section, Gary Margolis agonized over making a call.

Adrien Zychowski had gone all in on the river with the board reading: 10♣10♦K♥9♣9♠.

Margolis thought about it for a few minutes, then made the call.

Zychowski turned over K♣K♦ for a full house, kings over tens.

Margolis had Q♠J♠ for just a straight. He walked away, defeated.

The dealer asked a reporter to chase him down and ask him to return to the table, because he had 106,500 chips, while Zychowski had only 106,000.

Margolis had to bag one 500 chip.
