Some Updated Stacks From Paris Black

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Patouilliart Doubles to Leave Simao Short

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Paul Patouilliart opened to 1,500 from middle position and was three-bet to 5,000 from Joao Simao, who was in the cutoff. Action folded back to Patouilliart and he made it 15,000 to go. Simao called.

The flop came 6Q3 and Patouilliart moved all in for his last 23,800. Simao verified the amount and called to put Patouilliart at risk.

Paul Patouilliart: AAK6All in
Joao Simao: J976

Patouilliart held the lead with his aces, and the 410 failed to improve Simao to award Patouilliart the double up.

Perfilev Scores a Knockout

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Action went three-ways to a flop of 410A in a hand between Daemon Richardson in early position, Dmitrii Perfilev in middle position, and Jay Harwood in the cutoff.

Richardson bet 30,000, Perfilev called, and Harwood got out of the way. Richarson then moved all in for about 10,000 before the dealer put out the 2 turn. Perfilev made the call.

Daemon Richardson: AAKJ
Dmitrii Perfilev: QJ108

Richardson's set of aces were in the lead, but Perfilev hit a heart on the 3 river to improve to a flush, sending Richardson to the rail.

Big Pot, No Showdown

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With a flop dealt to a 68JA turn, and 25,500 in the pot, Tom-Aksel Bedell checked in the small blind, and faced a pot-sized bet of 25,500 from Jeremy Ausmus in early position, which he called.

The A river completed the board, and when Bedell checked once again, Ausmus moved all in for 8,700. Bedell slid his cards back towards the dealer, surrendering the pot to Ausmus.
