Painter Applies Pressure From the Button

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Action opened with a raise from under the gun to 2,000. His raised was called by the cutoff player, Jameson Painter on the button, and the player in the big blind as well.

The flop came down {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and everyone checked around to see the {7-Clubs} on the turn. The big blind checked, prompting a bet of 3,000 from the original raiser from under the gun. Action folded to Painter who made it 10,000. The big blind folded, but the original raiser called.

On the {4-Diamonds} river, the original raiser checked to Painter. Painter put out a big bet of 30,000 and without thinking about it for too long the player folded, allowing Painter to take the pot.

Sam Soverel Stacked

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante
Sam Soverel
Sam Soverel

Bracelet winner Sam Soverel was in middle position and facing a decision for 6,500 from the player in the big blind. Soverel moved all in for about 40,000 and his opponent called.

Soverel: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Big blind: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

Soverel had a commanding lead preflop with his kings, but that changed when the flop fell {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} to give his opponent a set. The {2-Hearts} turn and {4-Clubs} river were no help to Soverel and his opponent took the pot to send him to the rail.

Filatov Doubles One Up

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante
Anatoly Filatov
Anatoly Filatov

Anatoly Filatov opened with a raise to 2,500 from under the gun. Action folded around to the button who raised to 8,500. Action folded back to Filatov and he called quickly.

The flop came down {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{A-Spades} and Filatov checked to his opponent who put out a bet of 6,000. Filatov quickly put out a stack of orange T5,000 chips, which was enough to put his opponent all in. The player thought for a second.

"Hmmm," he said pushing his chips forward. "Ok, let's do it."

Filatov: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The board completed with the {4-Diamonds} and {2-Spades} and that allowed the player to double through Filatov with his flopped set of kings.

"I didn't think you had a bad hand," the player said. "But sometimes you Russians can show up with some bad hands there after you call."
