Tolander Eliminates Madan

Roxanne Johnson

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Noel Rodriguez raised from under the gun to 6,000, Adam Tolander called from early position, Manish Madan called from the small blind, and Kazuya Watanabe called from the big blind. A monotone flop arrived with 10♥2♥K♥, and everyone checked to Tolander, who bet out 20,000. Madan moved all in for his last 29,000, and everyone folded except Tolander, who was pot committed for only 4,000 more.

Manish Madan: A♥5♠ All in
Adam Tolander: K♣J♠

The turn 2♠ and the river 6♠ did not give Madan any help, and Tolander won the pot with two pair.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Congya Zhang raised to 6,000 under the gun, and action was folded to Sukhpaul Dhaliwal in the small blind, who three-bet to 18,000. Zhang four-bet to 32,000, which led to Dhaliwal cold five-bet jamming all-in, and he had Zhang covered. Zhang snap called.

Congya Zhang: Q♣Q♦ All in
Sukhpaul Dhaliwal: A♠K♥

The board ran out 10♦6♣10♠6♦10♣ and gave Zhang a full house, not that it was needed as Dhaliwal's ace-king had not improved and Zhang was hsipped the pot for a full double up.

Congya Zhang	232,000
