Dunaway Living Rent Free in Buhaiov's Head?

Kai Cocklin

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Not long back from dinner break, Braxton Dunaway made it 800,000 to go in early position and Nazar Buhaiov three-bet the cutoff to 2,400,000. When it got back to Dunaway, he called.

On the 4♦2♣3♦ flop, Dunaway check-called a bet of 1,200,000 from Buhaiov to see the 5♠ fall on the turn, where both checked.

A Q♥ hit the river and Dunaway checked again, then Buhaiov bet 3,000,000. Dunaway snap-called.

Both players had a wheel as Dunaway showed A♠Q♠ and Buhaiov flipped A♣9♥.

"I just wanted to see what you three-bet me with," said Dunaway. "Light!" he added.

"I'm living rent free up in that head of yours. I want my fellow patrons to see how light he three-bets me," Dunaway finished with.

Padilha tanked for several minutes into the dinner break before calling with A♣2♣, but Milhomem had K♦6♦ for a full house to win the pot

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Action folded to Paul Gibbons in the hijack who shoved his remaining 3,500,000 in the middle. Next to him sat Leo Margets in the cutoff and she made the call, with no other player wanting to join.

Paul Gibbons: K♠K♥ All in
Leo Margets: A♥Q♦

When the flop came down 6♦9♥A♣ and Gibbons saw the ace giving Margets the better pair he smashed a chip on the table and it fell on the floor.

The 5♣ turn and the 9♦ offered no help for Gibbons and he was sent to the rail.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Stephen Hesse on the button raised it up to 625,000 and Luka Bojovic three-bet to 1,800,000 in the small blind. It folded back to Hesse and he four-bet to 3,150,000 before Bojovic five-bet jammed and earned the call from Hesse for an effective 8,875,000.

Stephen Hesse: K♠K♦ All in
Luka Bojovic: A♦K♥

The Q♣J♥8♠ flop gave Bojovic a gutshot straight draw and he instead spiked the A♥ on the turn. Hesse now needed the case king to double or one of the four tens in the deck to chop. Neither came with the 5♥ river and his tournament run ended in 39th place for $240,000.

Lautaro Guerra opened in the cutoff, and Leo Margets in the small blind called. Michael Mizrachi was the big blind and three-bet to 2,500,000, and Guerra quickly went out of the way. Margets then went all in for 6,050,000 and Mizrachi promptly called.

Michael Mizrachi:A♠10♠

The flop came down 7♣K♦J♥, and despite Margets hitting a set, there were a few outs left to improve Mizrachi's hand.
