James Chen Chips Up

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Five players saw a flop of {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} with about 25,000 in the pot, and James Chen bet 15,000 from the big blind. Mark Zullo called, and the other three players folded.

The turn brought the {J-Hearts}, Chen checked, and Zullo checked, as well.

The {K-Clubs} fell on the river, and both players checked again. Chen tabled {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for a flopped Broadway straight, and Zullo mucked.

Jesse Yaginuma Busts to Dramatic Runout

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Kenneth Gregersen opened from the button and then called when Jesse Yaginuma moved all in from the button for 28,000.

Yaginuma: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Gregersen: {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, swinging first one way, then the other, until the river gave Gregersen a full house to bust Yaginuma.

A huge hand developed just after the dinner break between Casey Carroll and Andrew Margolis.

The flop was {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Margolis check-called a bet of 15,000. The turn brought the {8-Hearts}, and Margolis checked again. Carroll bet 37,000, and Margolis thought for some time, counting out a call before eventually raising to 100,000. Carroll moved all in, and Margolis called.

Carroll had {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Spades} for queen high straight, and Margolis had {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

The river {9-Diamonds} completed the board, and Carroll won the biggest pot he’d seen in a while.

Toby Joyce Getting Aggressive

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Igor Sharaskin raised to 12,000 from early position, Jonathan Zarin called from the hijack, Justin Gardenhire called from the cutoff, and Toby Joyce made a pot-sized three-bet from the button, which committed the majority of his stack. The blinds quickly folded, as did Sharaskin, but Zarin went into the tank for about half a minute.

Ultimately, Zarin folded, and Gardenhire mucked, as well. With this preflop three-bet, Joyce increased his stack by about one-third.

Nadar Kakhmazov Busts to Mizrachi

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Michael Mizrachi opened for 10,000 and Nadar Kakhmazov called in position.

They went heads up to a flop of {q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Spades}.

Mizrachi potted it for 26,000 and Kakhmazov called, leaving 40,000 behind.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} and a fist of chips from Mizrachi indicated a pot-sized bet and the rest of Kakhmazov’s chips.

A few minutes passed by before Kakhmazov called and asked, “You have a flush draw?”

Mizrachi: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}{q-Spades}{5-Spades}
Kakhmazov: {8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}.

The river was the {5-Diamonds}.

It was Kakhmazov with the baby flush draw but he missed to bust and Mizrachi kept on increasing his lead.

Igor Sharaskin Chips Up

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Jonathan Zarin, Igor Sharaskin, and Christopher Frank got to the river in an approximately 80,000-chip pot, and they all checked.

Zarin announced, "Aces up," and turned over {A-Spades}{9-Hearts}, but kept the other half of his hand face down. Sharaskin tabled {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for Broadway, Frank mucked and Zarin mucked as well.

Andrew Margolis Wants a Mizrachi Call

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Nadar Kakhmazov opened from under the gun for 13,000 and got calls from Michael Mizrachi in late position, Allan Le in the small blind, and Andrew Margolis in the big blind.

The flop was {2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}.

Le led out for 30,000 and Margolis called. Kakhmazov instantly threw his hand away and Mizrachi thought for a moment before he mucked.

The turn was the {4-Hearts} and Le checked.

“How much is in there?” Margolis wanted to know and, when he found out it was 112,000, he bet pot. Le folded,
Margolis dragged the pot but asked of Mizrachi, “How did you find the fold button? I didn’t know you hand one.”

The table then speculated on Margolis’ hand which he wouldn’t reveal but insisted he never bluffed.
