Wysotchanski Takes Four-Bet Pot

Frank Visser

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Mark Shutley was first to act and raised to 85,000 with 8♠7♠. Wagner Wysotchanski three-bet to 250,000 in late position with A♠Q♠, which Lautaro Guerra bumped up to 575,000 on the button, holding A♣10♣.

Wysotchanski called to the 8♦6♦5♦ flop, which he checked to Guerra. Guerra checked back, leading to the 5♣ turn hitting the felt.

Wysotchanski took the initiative with a bet of 225,000, which was enough to win the pot as Guerra quickly released his cards to the dealer.

Adam Lamers

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

A hand that went well into the last break of the night, Hartt Stearns and Daniele Primerano were heads up in what was an innocent enough pot of 650,000. The board read A♦K♠2♣10♠6♣ and Stearns checked to the Italian who made an overbet of 880,000.

Stearns check-raised all in for 3,295,000 which put Primerano in a difficult spot. In the tank for nearly five minutes, Primerano tried to get anything he could out of his opponent.

"Give me something," he pleaded. "I've got a big hand. I don't know how I'm going to fold. You just have ace or kings though. You're supposed to have ace-king too."

Stearns sat comfortably quiet in his chair and just gave a little smirk. Primerano eventually announced a call and Stearns turned over Q♥J♥ for the nut straight to score a massive double up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Hartt Stearns	7,250,000 4,305,000	4,305,000
Daniele Primerano	4,420,000 100,000	100,000

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

With two players seeing a board of J♦2♣2♦6♥ and 540,000 in the middle, Michael Mizrachi bet 175,000 from the hijack with A♣5♦ and Mounir Tajiou raised to 350,000 from the button with 7♠7♦. Mizrachi three-bet to 575,000 and Tajiou put in a massive four-bet to 2,325,000. Mizrachi went into the tank for a couple minutes before folding and Tajiou dragged in the sizable pot without showdown.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Rene-Charles Angelil raised to 100,000 in early position before Jordan Dumas three-bet to 280,000 in the hijack. Angelil called and they went heads-up to the K♠10♠4♥ flop.

Dumas then continued for 200,000 and Angelil called. The 7♣ turn was checked through and the 9♣ fell on the river.

Angelil then led out for 875,000, sending Dumas deep into the tank. He considered the decision for several minutes but eventually gave up his hand.

"King-jack?" Angelil asked him as he took in the pot.

"King-queen," Dumas replied.

Minghini Makes Ace-High Hero-Call

Frank Visser

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Mark Shutley put in a raise to 115,000 under the gun. Sejo Kasic called in the next seat, and Tony Gregg followed suit as next to act.

It then folded to Jarod Minghini in the cutoff, who three-bet to 420,000. Shutley mucked his 9♦9♥, but Kasic called. Gregg also folded a pocket pair with 6♠6♥, after which a 8♠Q♠8♦ flop was shown.

Kasic checked, Minghini bet 3000,000, and Kasic called. After some thought, Kasic also checked the 4♣ turn. Minghini mulled things over before checking back, prompting Kasic to fire a bet worth 1,000,000 on the 3♣ river.

Minghini needed some minutes before he called off. Kasic could only show king-high with K♣J♠, and Minghini was awarded the pot with A♣K♠ for nothing but ace-high.

Player	Chips	Progress
Jarod Minghini	5,735,000 2,075,000	2,075,000

Kassouf Picks Up Aces Right After Showing a Bluff

Kai Cocklin

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

David Swift opened 8♦7♦ to 105,000 from the cutoff and Will Kassouf three-bet to 315,000 from the button with 9♠6♣.

They saw a flop of J♣K♠9♥, where Swift checked and Kassouf bet 500,000. Swift took some time but eventually folded his hand. Kassouf showed the bluff, and added his famous quote.

In the very next hand, Carmino Argiero opened from middle position to 155,000 and Kassouf three-bet the cutoff to 480,000. Argiero then shoved for around 1,000,000, and Kassouf snap-called.

Carmino Argiero: A♣Q♥ All in
Will Kassouf: A♥A♦

Kassouf had found the bullets right after showing a bluff, and was a huge favorite to eliminate Argiero.

A flop of K♠9♦J♣ did give Argiero a gutshot, but he couldn't find it on the 2♣5♠ runout, which ended his Main Event.

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Raffaele Sorrentino bet 80,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 10♣2♠8♠ and Bogdan Chornyy called in the big blind.

The turn was the J♣ and Chornyy led out for 250,000. Sorrentino then moved all in for 800,000, and Chornyy snap-called.

Sorrentino had K♣Q♠ and needed to improve as Chornyy showed 9♦7♦ for a straight. The 9♥ came on the river to give Sorrentino a higher straight and earn him the double-up.

Bogdan Chornyy	3,600,000 1,250,000	1,250,000

Adam Lamers

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Greg Merson limped in on the button and Leo Margets raised to 255,000 in the small blind. Daniel Becker stuck in a three-bet from the big blind and Merson quickly folded. Margets four-bet shoved all in for 1,675,000 and Becker asked for a count before making the call.

Leo Margets: J♠J♥ All in
Daniel Becker: A♠K♠

They were off to the races and Margets held the lead through the 7♠7♣2♦ flop. The Q♥ on the turn and the 9♦ on the river were also safe as Margets doubled through the bigger stack of Becker.
