Qing Liu
Qing Liu

Small blind Zhen Cai three-bet to about 43,000 against a middle-position open and he called off immediately when that player set him in for 167,000.

Cai: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Cai didn't have much to sweat as it ran {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}.

At another table, Qing Liu doubled up, getting his remaining chips in on the river with top boat, kings full of jacks, and the bubble goes on.

Failla Running Up

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Will Failla was all in for 121,000 in the big blind and an opponent who opened on the button called him with {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. That was no good against {a-Spades}{k-Spades} and the {9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} brought the king which Failla had requested. However, the {j-Spades} did turn make it so a ten river would beat him.

Fortunately for Failla, the {3-Clubs} was no harm.

Shulman Ships

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

On a {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop, a player under the gun bet 25,000 and was called by Scott Stewart in middle position. Barry Shulman shoved all in from the hijack for about 210,000 and the bettor tanked a bit and folded. Stewart was quicker to muck.

"Reasonable" Hand Beats De Silva

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Upeshka De Silva bet 85,000 on the turn out of the small blind with the board reading {2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. Antonio Mallol called on the button and the {10-Spades} river brought a four-liner to the board. De Silva checked and Mallol took a quick moment to think before checking it back.

De Silva opened {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} but Mallol showed {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

"Reasonable," De Silva said with a nod.
