Soverel Loses to Maue; Takes From Suriano
Leonard Maue raised to 140,000 in the cutoff and Sam Soverel called out of the big blind. Both players checked the 7♠7♦6♣ flop and 5♠ turn to the 4♦ river on which Soverel check-called for 275,000 and mucked when he was shown the 10♣7♣ for trips sevens.
"I thought I was trapping you by just check-calling the turn," Soverel said among other things in table chat.
Soverel then raised the button to 125,000 and Maue defended the big blind. The flop came Q♥J♥2♥ and Maue check-raised from 75,000 to 200,000. Soverel reraised to 475,000 and Maue called. They checked the 9♥ turn and Maue bet the 4♥ river for 675,000, Soverel folded and mentioned he had let go of a flopped set of queens.
Soverel then won a pot post flop against Daniel Negreanu before opening to 125,000 from under the gun. Davide Suriano called in the big blind and check-called for 75,000 on the 9♥9♠8♠ flop. The 2♠ turn was checked and Suriano led the 9♣ river for 250,000 with 710,000 behind.
Soverel moved all-in with the far covering stack and while Suriano was in the tank, he asked "can I see your stack please" as Soverel was hiding the chips while receiving a table massage.
After a few minutes, Daniel Negreanu called the clock and Suriano folded the 10♣8♣ face-up with ten seconds left to act.
