Estes Gets an (Almost) Full Double

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Thanhlong Nguyen opened to 250,000 from the cutoff, and Michael Estes raised to pot on the button, which totalled 930,000. Nguyen called.

He then check-called a bet of 710,000 on a flop of K♠9♠A♣ with Estes leaving just 10,000 behind. Action then checked through on the 4♠ turn and 5♠ river, as Estes' set with K♥K♦Q♦2♠ took down the pot.

Givens Takes Huge Hit

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn, in a bloated pot between button player Will Givens and big blind Hokyiu Lee.

The board read K♥10♥8♠2♣ and Lee had led out for 980,000; a pot-sized bet. Givens stuck in the call, and the river Q♦ was dealt.

Here, Lee announced "900,000," Givens snap-jammed and Lee snap-called, tabling A♣K♣J♠5♠ for the nuts.

Givens' K♦J♦9♣2♠ was no good, as he let the table know he thought Lee had announced pot, rather than 900,000.

Sonny Lee: 9♠8♠4♠4♥All in
Hokyiu Lee: A♠J♠J♦7♣

The 4♣ improved Lee to a full house, and the 9♣ river gave him a higher full house to secure the double up.

Ryan Wince raised to 420,000 from under the gun.

Jason Zipfel called from the big blind to bring the 9♠A♠4♠ flop. Wince shoved for 620,000 after it was checked to him, and Zipfel made the call to put Wince at risk.

The 3♥ turn and 6♥ river did not alter that as Wince secured the double up.

Queens Good For Coleman

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Jochen Pfeifer opened the action as he potted to 420,000. Maxx Coleman then repotted to 1,320,000 from the big blind, and Pfeifer thought for a bit before potting again. Coleman called all-in for not much more.

Maxx Coleman: Q♦Q♠J♠8♦ All in
Jochen Pfeifer: A♣K♥Q♥4♣

The J♥5♠3♥ flop gave Coleman a massive sweat, but he managed to survive on the brick 9♣7♠ runout to earn the double.

Zipfel Leaves Wince Short

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Ryan Wince raised to 400,000 under the gun. Action folded all the way around to Jason Zipfel, who defended his big blind.

The 4♠8♦6♠ flop checked through, as did the 4♣ turn, leading both players to the 7♠ river. Here, Zipfel led out for 700,000, and Wince went deep into the tank. He pondered his options for quite some time, before opting to fold.
