The Limp Reraise is Still Making Chips

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

The action folded to Hossein Cheraghi in middle position who limped for 2,500 before it folded to Eric Leblond in late poitison who put in the raise to 7,500. It then folded all the way back to Cheraghi who sat in the tank for a moment before putting in the limp-jam having Leblond covered. It did the job and got the fold.

The limp reraise is still working after all these years.

Gurin Goes For it All

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

Sergei Gurin opened under the gun to 4,000 before the action folded to Nelson Miguel on the button who called and then the blinds folded.

The KQ10 flop landed and Gurin continued for a large size of 8,000. Miguel called.

The 7 rolled off on the turn and Gurin sized up again with a bet of 22,500. Miguel called again.

The blank 4 river hit the board and Gurin sat in the tank for a moment before putting in a blocker bet of 5,000. Miguel wasted little time before putting in a raise to 35,500.

Gurin went deep into the tank and after about two minutes he moved all in having Miguel covered. Miguel gave a head nod and sent his cards to the muck. Gurin scooped without showdown.

It's Always on the River

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

Renmei Liu opened the button to 4,000 before the action folded to Shayne Khanna in the big blind. After a moment in the tank he moved all in for his last 29,000. Liu tossed in a call and they were off to a full board with Khanna at risk.

Renmei Liu: Q10
Shayne Khanna: A10

The 2J6 flop did not improve either player but the Khanna drilled the Q turn. Unfortunately, the deck had other plans as the A landed on the river sending Khanna to the rail.

Dubreuil Can't Get it Through

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Zacharie Desautels opened in late position to 4,500 before it folded to Michel Dubreuil in the big blind who defended and they were off to a flop heads up.

The A8Q flop landed and it checked to Desautels who continued for 3,000. Without wasting any time Dubreuil put in a check raise on the monotone board to 12,000. Desautels stuck around.

The action checked through on the 7 turn straight to the 8 river. Dubreuil took a moment and then made about a pot-sized wager of 35,000. Desautels snap called and Dubreuil instantly mucked without showing. Desautels then mucked too but won the pot.

Dubreuil still sits with a huge stack as the close of late reg draws near.
