Brandon Steven Busts

Level 14 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

On a board of {Q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, Koray Aldemir had 130,000 in front of him on the button, while big blind Brandon Steven was all in for 550,000 total. Aldemir thought about it for a bit before he called.

Aldemir was in front with {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}. Steven was in need of a heart with {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. The river {3-Spades} was a blank, and Steven departed from the tournament to reduce the field to 42 players.

Check-Raise, Check-Call, Check-Fold

Level 14 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Seated under the gun, Byron Kaverman opened for 90,000. He got called by the two Dans — Shak in the cutoff and Colman in the big blind.

Colman checked to Kaverman on the {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{K-Hearts} flop, and the initial raiser followed up his pre-flop aggression with a continuation bet of 115,000. Shak folded right away, but Colman check-raised to 250,000. Kaverman took his time before he called.

Colman checked on the {5-Diamonds} turn, then called as Kaverman took back the initiative with a bet of 235,000.

The {A-Clubs} on the river saw Colman check once more. Kaverman shoved for 565,000, and Colman instantly folded.
