It's All About Grafton

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

Sam Grafton raised to 800 from the cutoff, and Neil Webber called from one seat over. The flop came {K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, and both players checked before Grafton bet the {3-Hearts} turn for just 325. Webber called, and the {A-Hearts} river completed the board. Grafton bet 5,100, and Webber immediately said, "That's a bit more than 325.." while Grafton smiled back at him.

After one minute of consideration, Webber called, and Grafton turned over {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for two pair as the winning hand. Webber open-mucked the {A-Hearts}.

While Grafton had been dominating the action, Austin Hermiz recovered from the early setback against the Brit and has almost made it back to starting stack.

Anatoly Filatov is in the Zone

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante
Anatoly Filatov
Anatoly Filatov

In a five-way limped pot, the dealer fanned a {q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop. The small blind bet 1,025, and Anatoly Filatov called from late position, along with the cutoff.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds}, and the small blind checked. Filatov bet 3,800, and both players mucked their cards rather quickly. Filatov maintained a still image with his headphones on and one hand making his fidget toy spin around and around.

Qui Nguyen Lucky to Chop With Zoufri

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

In a hand that occurred on the live stream, Qui Nguyen raised to 2,100 from the button with {a-Spades}{6-Spades} and got one caller before Hakim Zoufri made it 6,100 in the big blind.

Nguyen came along to make it heads-up to a {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop. Zoufri checked, and Nguyen bet 11,000, nearly a pot-sized bet. Zoufri tanked for some time before calling. On the {10-Clubs} turn, Nguyen thought for over a minute before checking behind Zoufri, and Zoufri fired out 9,000 on the {8-Hearts} river. Nguyen called immediately, and the two chopped with identical ace-high hands.

Lefrancois Gets Caught Bluffing

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

A player in middle position raised to 750, the cutoff called, Pascal Lefrancois called from the button, the small blind called, and Nadar Kakhmazov called from the big blind.

Five players saw a {7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop, and action checked to the preflop raiser, who bet 1,500. The cutoff folded, Lefrancois called, the small blind called, Kakhmazov folded.

The turn brought the {3-Clubs}, and the small blind checked. The preflop raiser bet 4,500, Lefrancois called, and the small blind folded.

The {A-Clubs} fell on the river, and the preflop raiser checked. Lefrancois bet 15,000, sending his opponent into the tank. Ultimately, he called and tabled {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}, which was good against Lefrancois' {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a missed flush draw.

Hajiyev and Ponomarev Clash

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

Dmitry Ponomarev raised to 800 and Lloyd Mandel three-bet big to 3,800 on the button, which Ramin Hajiyev in the small blind just called. Ponomarev also came along and the three players checked the {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop. On the {6-Spades} turn, Hajiyev bet 4,300 and Ponomarev called, Mandel folded.

The {2-Spades} river slowed down the action and both players checked. Hajiyev turned over {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, which ended up second best to the {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} of Ponomarev.
