Schreiber Quartered by Hughes

Brett Slezak
Brett Slezak
Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Ryan Hughes opened the button to 50,000 and Matthew Schreiber defended his big blind.

On the 6♣5♦2♥ flop, Schreiber check-called a bet of 60,000 from Hughes.

Schreiber checked again on the K♥ turn as Hughes bet 210,000. Schreiber check-jammed for a little over 500,000, and Hughes snapped it off.

Matthew Schreiber: A♦Q♦8♥4♥ All in
Ryan Hughes: A♠Q♥5♥4♣

Both players had extremely similar hands, with both sharing the same low and both currently playing ace-five for high. Both also had a flush draw, but Hughes had the higher one as the 3♥ completed the board, giving Hughes three-quarters of the pot with his flush.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Richard Sklar opened to 40,000 second-to-act and Mike Gorodinsky called in the big blind.

On the J♣9♥5♣ flop, Gorodinsky checked to Sklar who bet 100,000. Gorodinsky then check-potted to 405,000, and Sklar was all-in for 490,000, covered by Gorodinsky.

Richard Sklar: A♥J♥5♠3♥ All in
Mike Gorodinsky: A♣6♥4♣3♦

Sklar had two pair with backdoor low and flush draws, while Gorodinsky had the nut flush draw. The board ran out 7♥5♥, as Sklar improved to a full house to collect one of the largest pots of the day.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Richard Sklar from early position and Naoya Kihara from the button were heads-up to a 8♦3♦3♣ flop. All of the chips found their way into the middle, with Sklar the effective stack for 265,000 total, including the preflop bet.

Richard Sklar: A♣9♦6♠2♠ All in
Naoya Kihara: A♦8♣7♣4♦

Sklar was drawing to the nut low, while Kihara had the nut flush draw with top pair. The 7♥ turn completed the low, and the 9♠ river gave Sklar top pair, as he went runner-runner to scoop each side of the pot.

Kihara's stack becomes short as he chases yet another bracelet in a $10,000 Championship event this summer.

Vladimir Belekhov raised to 40,000 in the small blind and in the big blind, Nino Pansier called.

On the turn 8♥, Belekhov bet 100,000 and Pansier called a second street.

Belekhov checked the 10♠ river over to Pansier who bet 375,000, and Belekhov called.

Pansier tabled A♠7♣5♣3♦ for the nut low and a flush, while Belekhov showed A♣K♥4♥3♥ for the same nut-low to earn himself just a quarter of the pot.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Action was picked up in a three-way pot between Jonathan Greene on the button, Shota Nakanishi in the big blind, and Rob Hollink in first position.

With a board reading Q♠8♦3♦, action checked to Greene who bet 75,000, and Nakanishi called. Hollink raised to 375,000, to see Greene call all in for 210,000 total. Nakanishi moved all in and Hollink called for 610,000.

Jonathan Green: A♣K♥Q♥4♥ All in
Rob Hollink: A♦10♦8♠3♣ All in
Shota Nakanishi: Q♦Q♣4♦4♣

Nakanishi's set of queens was good on the runout of J♣A♥ and he climbed to the top of the overall chip counts.

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Nick Guagenti limped from early position, Nathan Gamble completed from the small blind, and Matthew Beinner potted to 60,000 in the big blind, which only Guagenti called.

On the Q♦2♠2♣ flop, Beinner led for 35,000 and Guagenti called.

Beinner then checked the 9♠ turn and Guagenti took some time before he checked back.

On the A♣ river, Beinner checked for a final time and Guagenti checked back after a few seconds. Beinner then tabled A♠10♠3♥2♥ with a grimace, and his full house was the winner as he maintains his spot among the biggest stacks.
