Pisarenko Takes From Hallaert; Mizrachi From Minghini

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Christian Zetzsche

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Maksim Pisarenko raised it up to 1,800,000 and Kenny Hallaert called on the button. Both blinds folded to make way for the K♦4♦2♥ flop. The continuation-bet was worth 2,000,000, and Hallaert called to see the 2♦ on the turn. Pisarenko opted to check and Hallaert checked it back to the J♥ on the river.

Another check by Pisarenko followed and Hallaert checked it back for the Russian to win the pot with the 9♣9♦ for nines and deuces.

Jarod Minghini then raised to 1,600,000 in early position as action folded to Michael Mizrachi, who announced a raise in the small blind with A♦K♥. Mizrachi put in the 1,600,000 before making it 6,100,000. The floor was called over, and it was ruled that since Mizrachi had only put in the 1,600,000 initially, he was allowed to just min-raise to 2,400,000.

The flop came K♠10♥2♥ and Mizrachi bet 3,300,000 with his pair of kings. Minghini folded 8♥8♣ and Mizrachi took the last pot before the break.

"I don't think that's the right rule," Mizrachi said.

Adam Lamers

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Adam Hendrix raised to 1,600,000 with A♦Q♣ from under the gun and Joey Padron defended in the big blind with the suited J♥8♥. The flop came 6♥2♥2♦ and Padron check-called a bet of 1,400,000 from Hendrix.

The turn brought the 7♦ and both players checked to the 7♣ on the river. Padron led out with a small bet of 1,800,000 after missing his flush draw which sent Hendrix into the tank. After thinking for a minute into the break, Hendrix eventually dumped the best hand into the muck.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Michael Mizrachi raised to 1,700,000 in the hijack and Leo Margets called in the big blind. On the 9♣9♥6♦ flop, Margets checked and then folded when Mizrachi bet.

Sergio Veloso then opened to 1,600,000 from an early position with A♦3♦ and Braxton Dunaway defended his big blind to the 8♠3♣2♠ flop. The check by the chip leader triggered a bet of 2,400,000, and that won the pot for Veloso as Dunaway folded A♣6♦.

Maksim Pisarenko then opened to 1,700,000 with A♠9♥ and Leo Margets on the button three-bet to 4,000,000 holding A♣J♦. The action folded back to Pisarenko and he carefully checked his stack before reluctantly folding.

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Ruben Correia opened to 1,600,000 in middle position with A♦Q♣ and John Wasnock three-bet to 4,200,000 in the cutoff with 5♣4♣. Lautaro Guerra four-bet shoved all in for 13,600,000 with A♣Q♠ which got both Correia and Wasnock to fold.

On the next hand, Correia raised to 1,600,000 again with A♣10♥. Joey Padron three-bet to 4,200,000 in the cutoff and Daehyung Lee four-bet ripped all in for 12,300,000 in the big blind. Correia folded again but Padron flicked in the chip to call.

Daehyung Lee: K♥K♣ All in
Joey Padron: 9♥9♣

The flop came A♦K♠5♣ which ruined all sweat possibilities with Lee making a set of kings. The 7♦ on the turn left Padron drawing dead to the 5♦ on the river.

Dunaway bet again on the A♦ river, putting in 2,600,000. Mizrachi let out a laugh and took a minute before calling with J♣8♠, but Dunaway had A♥K♦ to win the pot.
