Igor Sharaskin Leaves Alexandre Fradin Ultra Short

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

With about 18,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, Alexandre Fradin checked from early position to his lone opponent, Igor Sharaskin on the button, and he bet 5,500. Fradin called.

The {4-Clubs} fell on the river and Fradin checked. Sharaskin bet 8,500, which represented nearly half of Fradin's remaining chips. Fradin tanked for about half a minute and ultimately called.

Sharaskin tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for aces full of deuces, which was good enough to win the pot.

PLO: It’s Easier Online

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Darren Taylor, the big stack at the table, opened the action for 5,100 and got a call from Christopher O'Rourke and the player in the big blind.

The flop was {8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Check to Taylor who bet 9,700. O’Rourke then declared a bet of pot.

Taylor looked interested and said, “I don’t think I can fold.”

There was then some confusion over the exact bet size as Taylor wanted to know how much it was to call, and how much O'Rourke had behind. It was further complicated by the fact Taylor’s bet wasn’t quite counted correctly and it turned out to be a bit larger, 9,700.

That recalculated the pot bet as 45,600 and Taylor went back to doing the maths in his head saying, “It’s easier online.”

The table was breaking and another player called the clock. With 30 seconds left Taylor decided to let his hand go.

Mark Zullo Climbing

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

With about 15,000 chips in the middle and the board reading {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, Mark Zullo checked to his lone opponent in the cutoff, and he bet 8,500. Zullo called.

The {J-Spades} fell on the river and both players checked. Zullo tabled {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and his baby flush was good enough to win the pot, putting him over the 200,000-chip mark.

Nick Peperone Done

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Nick Peperone bet pot from early position which made the bet 10,500. That left Peperone just a little slice of 1,000 behind.

It folded to Steven Wolansky in the big blind who thought for sometime before just calling.

The flop was {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and the extra 1,000 went in the pot and hands were reaveled.

Peperone: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Wolansky: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and the river {6-Diamonds}. Everybody stared at the board and the hands for a while.

“I see a ten,” said the dealer.

“I play ace-ten,” said Wolansky, and Peperone was gone.

Andy Margolis Sends One Home

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Andy Margolis and one other player got all the chips in the middle on a flop of {7-}{5-}{2-} with two clubs, and Margolis had the larger of the two stacks.

Margolis showed {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for top two pairs and a small flush draw. The board ran out with a {Q-} on the turn and a {5-} on the river, and Margolis took the pot with fives full of sevens to send his opponent to the cage.

Jonathan Zarin Felts a Foe

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Alexander Condon opened with a pot-sized raise of 10,500 from early position, Jonathan Zarin called from the button, and the small blind called as well.

The flop came {10-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and the small blind checked. Condon shoved, Zarin reraised pot, and the small blind quickly folded.

Zarin: {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-}{6-}

Zarin had the advantage with top two pair and his opponent needed to improve in order to double up. The {8-Hearts} on the turn kept Zarin in the lead and the {2-Clubs} river meant the pot was his.
