Debregeas Coolered Out of Main Event

Stewart Morrison

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

When the action folded around to Andrejs Prost in the cutoff, he raised to 16,000. Next to act, Loic Debregeas, three-bet to 40,000. The players in the blinds both folded, and Prost responded by moving all in, covering Debregeas' stack of roughly 170,000.

Debregeas made the call, and the players flipped their cards over.

Loic Debregeas: Q♣Q♦ All in
Andrejs Prost: K♥K♣

It was an unfortunate spot for Debregeas, and there was no bad beat to be dished out, as the board ran out 10♦4♣8♣9♣2♠, sending him to the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Seunghyun Nam raised it up from early position and Mike Matusow flat-called from the cutoff. The flop came 10♦7♥4♥ and Nam continued with a bet which Matusow called.

The 10♠ paired the board on the turn and Nam checked this time. Matusow put together a bet of 42,000 and Nam stuck around to see the 7♦ on the river. Both players tapped the table and Matusow announced a pair of eights with 8♠8♦. However, Nam flipped over A♠7♠ for a rivered full house to claim the pot.

"Jesus! Come on man," Matusow banged his fist on the table as he continued to mumble to himself into the next hand.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Clement Meunier in early position and Ricardo Alvardo in middle position were already all in as Frank Flowers, Samuel Roussy-Majeau, and Kenneth Der went to the flop of 10♣5♠9♠ with around 220,000 in the pot.

Der then bet 20,000 from the hijack and Flowers called on the button. Roussy-Majeau also called in the big blind and the turn came the 6♥.

Action checked to Flowers who bet 225,000. Roussy-Majeau took a few minutes before folding, while Der quickly got out of the way.

Flowers turned over 9♥8♠ for a pair and straight draw, while Alvarado had A♥J♥. Meunier, though, was ahead with K♦K♣ and held on through the 10♦ river to take most of the pot, while Alvarado was sent to the rail.

Sava Krink

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Scott Allacher opened the action with a raise to 18,000 from under the gun, picking up calls from Alberto Destrade and Harlan Karnofsky. When the action reached Brandon Sheils in the hijack, he pumped it up to 80,000.

On the button, Sean Grimes had just 70,000 left and moved all in. The blinds got out of the way, but Destrade, Karnofsky, and Allacher all called the three-bet, giving Grimes a chance to multiply his stack.

The flop came K♠6♦7♠, and Allacher immediately shoved for 137,000. Destrade and Karnofsky quickly folded, but Sheils called, taking the hand to a three-way showdown.

Sean Grimes: A♠Q♣ All in
Scott Allacher: 7♥7♣ All in
Brandon Sheils: Q♠J♠

Allacher had flopped a set, leaving Grimes needing running cards and Sheils looking for spades. The 4♥ turn brought no help, and the J♥ river sealed the pot for Allacher, who scored a huge double. Unfortunately for Grimes, his Main Event run ended.
