A Big Pot with a Full House for Wilson

Maxime Taldir

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

The action was picked up on a board of 3♣9♣10♦10♣8♦ with roughly 550,000 in the pot.

After Julio Fantin bet 350,000 from the hijack, Simon Wilson in middle position raised to 1,075,000. Fantin went into the tank for a long moment, and after the clock was called on him, he called.

Wilson immediately flipped over 3♠3♦ for a full house. Fantin couldn't do much against that and sent his cards into the muck.

Gabrielle Barredo

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

Wai Lo opened to 80,000 under the gun and Upeshka De Silva, to his immediate left, raised to 700,000 leaving around 50,000 behind. Wehn action returned to him, Lo went all-in sending De Silva to the tank, prompting Lo to say, "Don't slow roll me."

De Silva was taking so much time that the clock was called. De Silva placed his remaining chips, taking them to showdown.

Upeshka De Silva: A♣J♣ All in
Wai Lo: Q♠Q♥

The window card of the flop evoked an "Oh no.." reaction from Lo, but calmed down when it fully dropped to J♦Q♣4♥, giving him a set.

The runout 8♥9♠ didn't help De Silva and he was eliminated from the tournament.
