Peeks Wins a Flip

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Roeland Peeks raised to 30,000 from under the gun, Franco Spitale three-bet jammed in the hijack for 265,000, and Peeks called with the covering stack.

Franco Spitale: AQ All in
Roeland Peeks: 77

There were no aces or queens to be found on the 2K9K8 runout, and Spitale was sent to the rail.

Dwan Takes From Blinds

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Jamie Dwan raised from the hijack to 30,000, Andrew Lichtenberger called from the small blind, and Angelina Rich called from the big blind. The flop arrived with 2JA and both the blinds checked to the preflop raiser, Dwan, who bet 35,000. Lichtenberger called, and Rich folded.

Both players checked through the 5 turn and the 10 river. Lichtenberger turned over KJ and Dwan turned over QQ for a pair of queens and the win.

Zaki Forces a Fold

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Justin Zaki raised to 30,000 in the cutoff and Daniel Rezaei defended in the big blind.

The flop of 1075 went check-check, as did the J turn.

On the Q river, Zaki bet 115,000, prompting Rezaei to think through his decision.

"It really feels like you have ace of hearts, eight, ace of hearts, nine," said Rezaei as he tossed his cards into the muck.

Hidenari Falls Kate

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Tomita Hidenari shipped his final 112,000 on the button before Jon Kyte made the call out of the big blind to put Hidenari at risk.

Tomita Hidenari: 1010All in
Jon Kyte: AJ

Hidenari held the lead, and the flop maintained it when it fanned out 567.

The turn was unkind to Hidenari when the A peeled to give Kyte the significant lead with one card to go.

Kyte held on the 2 river to eliminate Hidenari.

Song Sees the Exit

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Stephen Song
Stephen Song

Action picked up on the river with a sizable pot brewing between Boris Angelov in the big blind and Stephen Song in the cutoff.

With the board reading 37A88, Song committed most of his remaining stack of about 250,000 or so, leaving himself with about one big blind behind.

Angelov then asked for all of it and Song reluctantly tossed in the rest, only to see the bad news that his ace-jack was no good against the 86 of Angelov, who rivered trips.

Zaki Maximizes Pressure On Mary's Big Stack

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Matthieu Mary raised from the hijack to 25,000, and Justin Zaki was the lone caller from the cutoff. The flop came out with J7Q, and Mary checked, while Zaki bet 35,000. Mary called.

On the 5 turn, Mary checked again, and Zaki bet 105,000. Mary stayed for the river.

On the A river, Mary checked for the third time, and Zaki exerted maximum pressure, betting 240,000. Mary went into deep calculation for long enough that the table called the clock. On the very last second of the clock, Mary called and mucked when Zaki turned over K10 for the straight.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Drew Oconnell
Drew Oconnell

Action went three-ways to a flop of QA6 in a hand between Patros Behnam in the hijack, Michael Linster in the cutoff, and Drew Oconnell in the big blind.

The trio checked around to the 5 turn, where it checked through once more. On the 3 river, Oconnell led out for 60,000 and only Linster called.

Oconnell tabled A3 for two pair, aces and treys, prompting Linster to muck his cards.
