Livello 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Olga Iermolcheva opened to 2,000 from under the gun and got a single call from Alisina Bonastre to her direct left.

The players saw the 7♦K♠7♥ flop and checked to a 8♥ turn.

Iermolcheva bet 3,000 and Bonastre folded.

In the next hand Bonastre opened to 2,000 from under the gun, Jen Shahade called from the small blind and Iermolcheva called from the big blind.

The 6♣10♣2♥ flop was checked by the blinds and Bonastre bet 2,500. Iermolcheva was the only caller.

The 8♥ turn was check-called by Iermolcheva after Bonastre bet 5,000.

Iermolcheva moved all in on the 7♦ river and Bonastre folded, leaving Iermolcheva to take another pot.

Fugivala Busts

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Barbara Fugivala got the last of her chips in the middle preflop with Anna Gulevich making the call to put her at risk.

Barbara Fugivala: J♣10♥ All in
Anna Gulevich: A♣6♦

Fugivala was behind and needed to find a jack or a ten to survive. The runout of Q♠2♥5♠7♥9♠ didn't improve either player, meaning Gulevich's ace-high would send Fugivala to the rail.

Livello 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action was followed from the 8♣8♦K♣ flop with Shelly Talbot in the small blind and up against Isabella Goncalves in the big blind.

Talbot bet 9,000 on the flop and Goncalves called.

The Q♥ was turned and Talbot bet 4,000, getting another call from Goncalves.

The 4♠ river saw Talbot move 8,000 into the pot. Goncalves asked the dealer how many more levels of late registration there were, before moving their entire stack into the middle. Talbot made a snap call and the players flipped their hands.

Isabella Goncalves: 8♠2♥ All in
Shelly Talbot: 8♥J♣

Both players had flopped trip eights, and the king and queen on the board played, meaning the pot was chopped.
