Erick Torres

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Pierre Nasr began the hand with a raise to 1,800 from the cutoff. The raise was called by Kevin Nathan on the button and Akihiro Konishi in the big blind.

Konishi checked the 3♥9♠7♦ flop before Nasr bet 1,600. Nathan got out of the hand, and Konishi came along with a call.

The 2♠ turn led to a check from Konishi before Nasr put out a bet of 3,500. Konishi called to see a river.

Konishi deferred to Nasr, who bet 6,500 on the 2♦ river. Konishi gave it some thought before he called.

Nasr tapped the table and showed K♠Q♦ for king-high, while Konishi revealed 8♦3♦ for two pair, which was enought to drag in the pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Ian Matakis opened to 1,800 from middle position and received calls from Tian Liu in the small blind and Erick Lindgren in the big blind.

All three players checked the 10♣6♥9♦ flop leading to the A♦ turn. Action then checked around to Matakis who bet 3,500. Both opponents called.

Liu checked the 10♦ river and Lindgren bet 9,000. Matakis folded after about 30 seconds of contemplation and Liu quickly folded after, conceding the pot to Lindgren.

Stewart Morrison

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The action was joined with a pot of 7,900 already in the middle and a board reading 4♥5♥7♥10♠.

Big blind Ali Shahni checked the action to Kristen Foxen, on the button, who placed a bet of 5,000. Shahni called, and the two went to a 8♣ river.

Shahni checked again, and this time Foxen elected to check behind. Shahni turned over his J♥10♣, which was good enough to lay claim to the pot, as Foxen mucked her cards.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Ueberton De Aquino raised to 1,700 from the hijack. Tom-Aksel Bedell called from the cutoff, and Christoph Vogelsang came along from the big blind.

Vogelsang checked the 6♠A♠2♥ flop before De Aquino put out a bet of 2,100. Bedel got out of the way, and Vogelsang stuck around.

A round of checks happened after the J♠ peeled on the turn.

The 8♥ river saw Vogelsang take the betting lead with a wager of 2,500. De Aquino mulled it over before he made the call.

Vogelsang showed A♣9♣ as De Aquino mucked his hand.

Mitchell Hynam opened to 1,800 from the cutoff and Aleks Dimitrov defended from the big blind.

The flop came 3♥J♦4♠ and Dimitrov check-called a 2,000 continuation-bet from Hynam.

Hynam fired a second barrel for 11,500 when checked to on the 9♠ turn and this time it was enough to get a fold from Dimitrov.
