Wang Check-Raises to Build His Stack

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

A player in early position raised to 12,000 and was called by the cutoff, the button, and Zhaoxing Wang in the big blind.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, and the action was checked to the raiser. He continued for 40,000, and both the cutoff and button folded. Wang, meanwhile, used the opportunity to check-raise all in. His opponent had around 145,000 remaining, and Wang had him covered.

After thinking for a couple moments, his opponent let his hand go, and Wang scooped another pot.

Zachary Gruneberg Wins Three-Way All-In

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

There was a three-way all-in between Zachary Gruneberg on the button, Brett Apter in the small blind, and Elliott Zaydman in the big blind. Gruneberg had the shortest stack of 62,500, and Zaydman started the hand with 96,500, while Apter had them both covered and was looking for two bounty chips.

Gruneberg: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Zaydman: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Apter: {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

The board ran out {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, and Gruneberg was able to triple up with a set of deuces. Zaydman took the side pot with his pair of aces, and Apter was left with just five big blinds.

Reichenstein Building Momentum

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Ryan Lincks raised to 13,000 from middle position, and Uri Reichenstein called from the big blind.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, and both players checked. The turn brought the {j-Clubs}, and Reichenstein checked again. Lincks bet 15,000, and Reichenstein raised to 48,000. Lincks called, and they were off to the river.

It was the {7-Diamonds}, and Reichenstein bet 95,000. Lincks called, and Reichenstein tabled {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}, which was good enough to take down the pot.

"I don't always flat with ace-queen, but when I do, the flop comes queen-queen," Reichenstein said to the player beside him after the hand was finished, as they both had a chuckle.

Gruneberg checked, and his opponent bet 42,000. Gruneberg snap-called and tabled {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for the best hand to take down the pot.
