Perry Calls the Clock on Moshe, Tries to Send Guerrero On His Bike

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ralph Perry
Ralph Perry

Asi Moshe opened from the cutoff and Carlos Guerrero flatted on the button, with Ralph Perry also coming in from the big blind.

On the KQ5 flop, it checked to Guerrero, who bet 15,000 before Perry check-raised to 45,000. Then, Moshe seemed to have a tough decision and, after roughly one minute, Perry called the clock on him. Moshe did not take so kindly to this, with some others at the table coming to his defense.

After some back-and-forth verbal jousting, the countdown began, and eventually reached zero as Moshe's hand was dead.

Moshe pleaded with the attending floor to look at his hand to justify why he needed the time, and was told to return the cards to the muck.

Guerrero then called to see the J land on the turn. Perry quickly announced all in as the covering stack and Guerrero instantly called off his 208,000 stack.

Carlos Guerrero: KK All in
Ralph Perry: Q10

Guerrero flopped top set after just flatting the kings preflop, while Perry had a pair of queens with an open-ended straight draw. Luckily for Guerrero, the river was the 6, and Perry cut out doubling chips and sent them in the direction of the Columbian.

Arenas Chips Up

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Archimedes Arenas opened to 14,000 from the cutoff. David Litt came along with a call from the small blind, and Elliott Kampen joined the fray with a call from the big blind.

The blinds checked the 36K flop before Arenas continued for 14,000. Litt folded, but Kampen called.

Kampen checked the 3 turn, which led to a bet of 35,000 from Arenas. Litt folded to conclude the hand as the chips went to Arenas.

Marcus Rings the Wrong Bell

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Daniel Marcus raised to 12,000 from under the gun and Antonio Vargas called in the next seat. Patrick Bell then three-bet to 28,000 and both opponents called.

On the 1076 flop, only Marcus check-called for 30,000 when Bell bet, and then did so again on the 2 turn for 46,000. Both checked the 9 on the river, and Marcus shook his head when he flipped over the JJ. Bell had the superior pocket pair in KK to claim the pot.

Canden-Lennox Makes Edlin Fold Kings

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action was picked up on a board of 46510 with roughly 220,000 in the pot. Michael Canden-Lennox in middle position moved all in, so Andrew Edlin in the big blind with 410,000 behind went deep into the tank.

After a long moment, he eventually chose to fold. Canden-Lennox flipped over A7, so Adlin decided to reveal his cards as well and showed KK.

Jeff Weiss raised to 13,000 from the cutoff and Steven Firestone called on the button. Jose Fernando Garcia Gutierrez squeezed to 36,000 from the big blind, with only Firestone continuing.

The A9J flop saw Garcia Gutierrez fire a continuation-bet of 16,000. Firestone didn't need long before releasing his hand, and Garcia Gutierrez took down the pot.

Mossinger Gets Value from Vaziri

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Hai Chen opened to 12,000 from early position and Arash Vaziri called on the button. Erick Mossinger defended his big blind and the players saw the JQ7 flop.

Mossinger checked, and did Chen and Vazari bet 15,000. Only Mossinger called, and the players were dealt the 4 turn.

Both checked to see the 3 river and Mossinger bet 37,000. Vazari said "Call", but lost the pot after Mossinger showed his KQ for top pair. Vazari said "How Much?" and counted out the change from his stack, pushing it across to Mossinger.

Ji Loses Final Flip

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Min Ji
Min Ji

Min Ji pushed his remaining 69,000 all in from middle position. It folded to Sebastian Mortensen in the small blind, who asked for a count before he called.

Min Ji: AK All in
Sebastian Mortensen: QQ

"I'm way ahead," Mortensen claimed.

Ultimately, he was ahead at the end of the hand, as the 924107 runout gave him a flush to send Ji to the rail a few dozen spots away from the money.

Speer Sticks it to Kawazu

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With about 140,000 already in the pot on a board of 354J, Aaron Speer checked from the big blind, and Motomi Kawazu checked back from the cutoff.

The 4 paired the board on the river, and Speer fired out a bet of 100,000, sending Kawazu into the tank. After taking some time over the decision, Kawazu elected to fold, surrendering the pot to Speer.

Half a Milly for Ching

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The action was caught as Pablo Ching was already all in preflop for 241,000 from the big blind, and at risk versus early position player Christian Roberts.

Pablo Ching: AK All in
Christian Roberts: QQ

The 8A6 flop was less than ideal for Roberts, leaving him with just one immediate out.

There was no relief on the 2 turn or 4 river, seeing Ching double up a half-million-stack.

So Many Diamonds for Lin

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ren Lin
Ren Lin

Action checked around to Ren Lin in the small blind, who limped, and Jeremy Maher in the big blind checked his option.

On the J4K flop, Lin check-called Maher's 15,000 stab at the pot.

The action went check check on the 2 turn for the 10 to peel off on the river.

Lin bet out for 20,000, which got a quick fold from Maher, who showed a Jack.

"I got so many diamonds!" exclaimed Lin to Maher.

"I got seven diamonds!" he joked again, or was he serious? Sometimes you never know with Lin!
