Er Takes From Zinno

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

The player under the gun limped in, and Zorlu Er also limped before the action reached Anthony Zinno on the button. Zinno, who won this very event in 2015, raised it up to 2,600, and Michael Huntress called in the small blind. The initial limper called, and Er also came along to see a four-way flop.

It came {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades}. All players checked, and the same applied for the {2-Spades} turn. It checked around to Zinno on the {K-Clubs} river, and he bet 10,000. That forced out two opponents, but Er check-raised to 25,000. Zinno folded.

Updated Chip Counts

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

No Action for Zhou

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

Tommy Le raised to 2,000, and Ben Tollerene three-bet to 6,800 from one seat over. Quan Zhou, on the button, and the player in the small blind called, and Le also tossed in the additional chips. All four players checked the {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop and the {4-Hearts} turn. There was no betting action on the {7-Hearts} river either, and Tollerene announced a pair of aces, turning over his {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}.

Le announced two pair but sent his cards into the muck as soon as Zhou flipped over {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a set of nines as the winning hand.

Le Pots for Value

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

Tommy Le three-bet to 6,600 from the small blind and called a four-bet to 20,800 from Ben Tollerene out of the big blind.

The two went to a {8-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop and both checked to see the {2-Spades} on the turn. Tommy Le led betting pot, to the tune of 43,600. Tollerene took a moment before making the call.

The river was the {10-Clubs} and both players checked.

Le tabled {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for two pair and Tollerene mucked.

Babakhanyan Forces Out Kyriakides

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

Picking up the action on the {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop with some 10,000 in the pot, Artem Babakhanyan checked out of the big blind and Miltiadis Kyriakides bet 5,000. Back on Babakhanyan, he check-raised to 17,000 and Kyriakides, who finished eighth in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha 8-Handed Championship a few days ago, eventually let go.

Down to less than half the starting stack, Kyriakides has plenty of work ahead if he wishes to complete another deep run at the WSOP.

One table over, Eric Wasserson sat down with a fresh stack and the field has been bumped to 153 entries.

Jattin Doubles Through Rybin

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

Farid Jattin raised from the button and was called by Mike Krasienko in the small blind and Alexey Rybin in the big blind. On the three-way flop of {K-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}, both Krasienko and Rybin checked and Jattin bet. Krasienko folded and Rybin check-raised before calling the shove of Jattin for 31,000.

Jattin: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} for two pair, kings and fives
Rybin: {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for two pair, fives and treys

The {2-Diamonds} turn and {10-Clubs} river were both blanks and Jattin doubled, putting a small dent into the big stack of Rybin.

Lamb Chips Up Slightly

Level 4 : 300/600, 0 ante

On the three-way flop of {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, Ben Lamb bet 3,500 and Dario Sammartino folded while the player under the gun called Lamb's bet. After the {7-Clubs} turn, Lamb's bet of 8,000 was check-called again before the final bet on the {5-Diamonds} river for 19,000 was also check-called.

Lamb turned over {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{7-Hearts} for two pair and that won the pot. The table also features Jan Collado and Martin Kozlov who've bumped up their stacks nicely so far.
