Plesuv Ships on Jeschka

Level 9 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Pavel Plesuv
Pavel Plesuv

Hannes Jeschka got the hand started with an open to 20,000 from middle position. Adam Hendrix called out of the cutoff, and Pavel Plesuv made it three-handed when he came along with a call on the button.

The 72J flop led to a bet of 25,000 from Jeschka. Hendrix bowed out with a fold, but Plesuv wanted to continue in the hand with a call.

Jeschka fired a second barrel for the amount of 90,000 on the 4 turn. Plesuv called.

The Q river led to a third barrel from Jeschka. This time, Jeschka put out a sizeable bet of 225,000 after playing one time bank.

Plesuv wanted to play for it all, and shoved for 643,000 in response. The all-in bet put Jeschka into the tank.

Jeschka played a time bank before he decided on a fold as Plesuv took down a chunky pot.

Kristen Foxen
Kristen Foxen

Kristen Foxen opened to 22,000 on the button to get the action started. Kai Cohen went all in for approximately 170,000 from the big blind. Foxen made the call to put Cohen at risk.

Kai Cohen: A8All in
Kristen Foxen: AJ

Foxen had Cohen's hand dominated, but the flop gave Cohen plenty of outs to improve when the dealer fanned Q39.

The turn was a black card, but it was the wrong suit when it came the 6 to keep Foxen in the lead.

Cohen whiffed on the A river to award Foxen the pot as Cohen was eliminated.

Punsri bet 50,000 on the flop, which was raised to 110,000 by Vaitiekunas in response. Punsri made the call as the pot continued to grow.

The Q turn led to a check from Punsri. Vaitiekunas bet 90,000, and Punsri made the call.

Punsri checked again on the Q river. Vaitiekunas put out a big bet of 450,000, which was enough to put Punsri all-in.

The bet was enough to get it done as Punsri yielded the pot with a fold to Vaitiekunas.

Rokas Asipauskas from middle position and Jamie Dwan on the button got the chips in after a series of raises that had Dwan at risk for 190,000.

Jamie Dwan: 1010All in
Rokas Asipauskas: AK

Dwan had to fade the overcards, and the flop got him three steps closer when it came 2Q2 to keep Dwan in the lead.

The J was not the paint card Asipauskas wanted, and the 4 river sealed the deal in favor of Dwan as he secured the double up.
