Liang Doubles Through Rheem

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

William Liang checked the J♣9♦8♦A♣ turn out of the big blind and Chino Rheem bet 50,000. The check-shove of Liang for 17,000 more followed and Rheem groaned.

"I know I am beat, I just want to save the 17,000," Rheem explained as he briefly exposed the ace of hearts. He then pondered about the huge pot odds and eventually called.

William Liang: J♦9♣
Chino Rheem : A♥4♠

Rheem had some outs but the 10♠ river ensured the double of Liang.

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Maria Ho was all in for her last 48,000 and Jacek Pustula shoved with more from the small blind. The big blind got out of the way and action was heads up with Ho at risk.

Maria Ho: K♣9♣
Jacek Pustula: A♣Q♣

The board ran out 3♦Q♦6♠8♠Q♥ and Ho could not catch up to ace-queen to stay in the tournament.

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Wai Lo raised to 14,000 and Jacek Pustula three-bet to 46,000 in the big blind, picking up a reluctant call by Lo.

The A♥9♣8♥ flop saw Pustula continue for 30,000 and Lo stuck around. Both checked the 4♣ turn and Pustula also checked the 7♦ on the river. Lo bet 115,000 and Pustula reluctantly folded.

Big Hand for Markowich

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Dov Markowich limped for 6,000 and was met by a raise to 22,000 from an opponent.

Markowich called and then checked a flop of 3♠9♠9♣. His opponent bet 35,000, Markowich raised to 87,000, and his opponent jammed.

Markowich quickly called with the 9♦10♦ for flopped trips and he was well ahead of his opponent's pocket sevens.

Neither the J♥ turn nor 5♠ river changed a thing and Markowich took down a big pot.

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Soo Jo Kim raised to 25,000 and Jim Collopy shoved for around 100,000 from a few seats over. The rest of the table got out of the way and action was heads up with Collopy at risk.

Jim Collopy: 4♠4♣
Soo Jo Kim: A♥Q♦

The board ran out 2♠A♦4♥10♠8♣ and Collopy flopped a set of fours to secure the double and leave Kim with 15,000.

On the next hand, Kim got his 15,000 into the middle and Jinho Hong was the lone caller from the big blind.

Soo Jo Kim: 6♥4♠
Jinho Hong: 10♣2♥

The board ran out 5♠Q♥3♠Q♣5♦ and Hong held on with the best kicker to finish Kim's day.

Elsewhere, Jaesung Lee, Simon Beckmann, and Ali Shahni were eliminated from the tournament.

In a battle of the blinds, Erwann Pecheux got it in with the Q♠6♥ against Adam Saven, who appeared to have put his hopes on ace-jack.

Livello 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Jaesung Lee defended the big blind and check-called a bet worth 10,000 by Jonathan Little on the 10♣5♦4♣ flop. They checked down the Q♥ turn and 8♦ river for Lee to reveal the K♦3♦. Little had that beat with K♠8♠ and won the pot.
