Buhahiov Stuns Obst on the River

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
James Obst
James Obst

Joshua Boulton raised to 20,000 in middle position and Nazar Buhaiov three-bet to 55,000 in the hijack. James Obst then moved all in for 150,000 on the button and Boulton folded, while Buhaiov took a few minutes and eventually called to put Obst at risk.

James Obst: AJ All in
Nazar Buhaiov: A10

Obst had Buhaiov dominated as the KJ3 flop gave him a pair, while Buhaiov picked up a straight draw. The 3 turn was safe for Obst, but Buhaiov caught the Q on the river to make his straight and send Obst to the rail.

Morris Triples, Reid Bounced

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Terrance Reid
Terrance Reid

David Gonia raised it up in middle position and was called by Terrance Reid in the cutoff and Stephanie Morris in the small blind. The flop fell K65 and Morris flicked in the last of her 26,000 chips. Gonia just called and Reid raised to 90,000. Gonia countered by shoving all in and Reid snapped off his stack of around 300,000.

Stephanie Morris: K10All in
Terrance Reid: A7All in
David Gonia: KQ

Two players flopped top pair but it was Reid with the only hearts in his hand. The turn was the 10 which improved Morris to two pair and the 8 on the river bricked out for Reid. Morris got her wish with a triple up but Reid was forced to leave the tournament area.

Confusion, Rulings and Exposed Cards

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Vinicius Camargo
Vinicius Camargo

It was immediate action on Table 531 in the Main Event.

When the under-the-gun player folded, the dealer pulled in his cards, but also accidentally pulled in the cards of the small blind player, as he was stacking chips from the previous hand and hadn't yet 'protected his cards'.

The next player to act, Jon Kyte, put in a raise to 22,000, but as he did this, the players at the table believed the hand to be a misdeal. The confusion at the table led to Vinicius Camargo sharing his cards with the players sitting next to him, exposing pocket jacks, as he believed he was about to return them to the dealer.

Queue the floor being called. A tournament official arrived, took stock of the action and made a ruling:

1. Because there had been action, the hand wasn't a misdeal.
2. Camargo's hand wasn't dead, but as he had shown two players, he must expose his cards to the whole table.

He turned over JJ.

The hand was now ready to resume, and action was on Camargo, still facing the raise of 22,000.

Camargo responded with a three-bet to 55,000, before one seat to his left, Max Pinnola, four-bet all in for 146,000.

The action returned to Kyte, who folded, and back to Camargo.

Camargo went deep into the tank, knowing that his opponent knew his hand, and still elected to move all in.

After some time, he chose to call anyway.

Max Pinnola: AQ All in
Vinicius Camargo: JJ

The dealer provided a 224K8 board, which was no help to Pinnola; and as he gathered his belongings and left, the rest of the table discussed the very unique hand they had just been a part of.

Middleton With a Massive stack

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Tom Middleton
Tom Middleton

Antonio Galiana raised to 20,000 under the gun, Goh Yanagida called in the hijack, and Tom Middleton called in the big blind.

Galiana bet 25,000 on a flop of A6Q, Yanagida folded and Middleton decided to check-raise to 85,000, Galiana called.

Middleton continued his aggression on the 10 with a bet of 225,000, Galiana called.

Middleton emptied the clip on the 6 with a shove of 425,000, Galiana went deep into the tank and eventually flicked in a chip to call, but saw that his opponent rivered three of a kind with 65, Galiana frustratingly mucked.

Jang Triples Up, Chen Left with Three Bigs

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was picked up with three players - Hyunsick Jang in cutoff all in for 167,000, Huabao Chen in the big blind all in for 184,000, and Kevin Nee in the small blind who covered both players.

Hyunsick Jang: KK All in
Huabao Chen: AQ
Kevin Nee: 64

The dealer flopped 8102 which kept Jang's lead but gave Nee a flush draw. Chen was still hoping to hit his ace, but the turn K gave Jang a set, strengthening his lead.

Chen, however, did pick up additional outs with a straight draw, while Nee was still waiting for a diamond to fall.

The river 8 cemented Jang's triple up with a full house.

A very small side pot of 34,000 went to Chen, but he got eliminated a few hands later.

Slight Edge

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 125,000 already in the pot and the board reading 268J6, Antoine Berruel and David Kaufmann were locked in a heads-up showdown.

Berruel, sitting in the hijack, led out for 80,000. Kaufmann, in the cutoff, went into the tank before eventually making the call.

Berruel revealed A8 for two pair, eights and sixes, but Kaufmann turned over 99 for the higher two pair, nines and sixes, and raked in the pot.
