Alex Foxen Takes from Yueqi Zhu

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Yueqi Zhu raised to 4,500 in late position and was called by the small blind and Alex Foxen in the big blind. The flop came {7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and it checked to Zhu. He continued for 7,300, the small blind folded, and Foxen called.

They checked the {7-Spades} turn and the {3-Hearts} river, and Foxens' {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for sevens and twos with the ace kicker was good for the pot.

Hall Busts; Hakim Wins With Kings

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Short stack Ryan Hall got his last 10 big blinds in with {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and was called by Luis Asmo with {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Asmo got there and sent Hall to the rail.

Joshua Sexton will soon be facing the same scenario of push or fold, as he just lost a bigger pot to Jeff Hakim. The latter raised from early position and Sexton just called out of the small blind. On the {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Sexton check-raised to 15,000 and Hakim called before the {4-Spades} turn was checked through.

Sexton bet the {4-Diamonds} river for 15,000 and Hakim called to see Sexton turn over pocket queens. Hakim had that beat with {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and Sexton shook his head in disgust.

Pablo Melogno Straightens Out

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Action folded around to Tyler Bonkowski on the button and he raised it up to 4,800. Pablo Melogno was in the big blind and decided to defend.

The flop came {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} and both players checked to the {6-Diamonds} on the turn. Melogno bet 3,500 and Bonkowski called.

The river was the {4-Clubs} and Melogno led out for 5,500 this time. Bonkowski thought for a moment and called.

Melogno tabled {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} for a straight to the six and Bonkowski mucked.

Matt Glantz Flops Trips

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Matt Glantz raised to 4,500 from the cutoff and was called by the button and the big blind. The flop came {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{7-Spades} and the big blind checked. Glantz bet 6,500, the button folded, and the big blind called.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and the big blind checked again. Glantz bet 11,500 and his opponent continued to call.

The river brought the {j-Hearts} and the big blind checked for the third time. Glantz thought for a bit and a smile grew on his face. He checked behind and tabled {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. "I don't think you can call me if I bet," Glantz said as he scooped in the pot.

Di Zhang Cracks James Calvo's Aces

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

James Calvo raised to 6,000 and was called by the player in the small blind. Di Zhang made it 25,000 from the big blind and Calvo four-bet to 100,000. The small blind folded and Zhang moved all in. Calvo called for about 260,000.

Calvo: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Zhang: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Hearts} and the jack hit to give Zhang a set, cracking Calvo’s aces to send him home. Zhang now has a massive chip stack.
