Ryan Snickles raised an unknown amount from the button and the player in the small blind went all in. Snickles pondered for a minute and then said "I'm feeling lucky, I call."
Snickels:
Small Blind:
Through the turn the board of had the all-in player poised to double up, but the table let out a dramatic gasp as the hit on the river giving Snickles a pair of jacks and the win. The other player frowned and exited the table and Snickled piled up his new-found chips building his stack to 185,000.
We saw Bryan Paris with a pretty hefty stack right before the dinner break was up and asked him how he had accumulated it. He told us that first, the player under the gun raised to 5,600 and Paris flatted in the big blind. On the flop, Paris checked and UTG bet 10,000. Paris shoved and his opponent called all in for around 35,000.
Paris:
UTG:
The turn and river bricked out and UTG was eliminated.
Then the very next hand, the button raised to 4,500 and Paris three-bet to 11,000 from the small blind. The button shoved for around 45,000 total and Paris made the call.
Paris:
Button:
The flop was which kept the button in the lead but gave Paris a slew of outs. The turn put Paris in commanding lead though and the on the river sealed the win for him. This gave Paris two knockouts in a row and we will definitely keep an eye on him and his beard.
The dinner break has ended and the remaining 114 players are now back to their tables. Everyone left in the field is guaranteed to take home at least $2,942.
The player under the gun shoved for around 6,000 and it was folded all the way around to Lily Kiletto in the small blind who called.
Kiletto:
UTG:
The flop was a kind one to Kiletto as it gave her top-top although her opponent could still hit a three for trips or a five for the wheel. The turn put UTG one card away from elimination but the on the river completed his straight as he doubled up.
We caught up with the action on the board where the small blind was all in for around 25,000 against James Carroll.
Carroll:
Small Blind:
The turn was the action card as it gave the small blind a pair of nines with an inside-straight draw and Carroll the nut flush draw. The river was the which gave the small blind trips as Carroll’s stack continued to plummet.
We missed the full action preflop but it appeared as though an early position player raised and Erik Lemarquand called from the small blind. On the flop, Lemarquand check-called his opponent’s 17,500 bet. Both players checked the on the turn and Lemarquand fired 17,000 on the river. The early position player folded as Lemarquand continued to build his stack.
A player in late position and Luke Davies got all the chips in the middle preflop after a series of raises. Davies was well ahead of the other player's until the flop came giving the other player a set of jacks. The turn and river brought the and which were of no help to Davies and the other player doubled up.
After the hand Davies was left with 135,000, which is still well above the chip average.
