Turner Climbs

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jon Turner opened under the gun to 3,400 and was called by the hijack before the big blind moved all in for roughly 26,000. Turner made the call as the hijack folded.

Turner: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

With Turner in great shape, the {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board would see him pushed the pot to send him over 144,000 while also eliminating his opponent.

Fohrenbach Fighting Back

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ricky Fohrenbach raised to 3,200 from the hijack and found one customer in the big blind.

The flop ran out {10-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} and it was checked to Fohrenbach, who c-bet to 3,800. His opponent cut out a raise to 10,000 and stuck it in the middle.

"About forty back?" Fohrenbach asked, referring to his opponent's remaining chips. "Yeah," he replied.

Fohrenbach then put enough chips into the middle to put his opponent all-in, sending him into the tank. After thinking and re-checking his cards several time, Fohrenbach's opponent eventually mucked. Fohrenbach mucked without showing.

Fohrenbach is currently sitting at 77,000.

Griffin-dor Picks One Off

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We caught up with the action on an {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop where Gavin Griffin checked as did his opponent. On the {J-Hearts} turn, Griffin bet 4,100 and was called. Griffin bet again on the {8-Diamonds} river, this time for 9,600. Instead of just calling though, he was met with a raise to 21,000. Griffin took a few moments but finally called and his opponent showed {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a stone cold bluff. Griffin turned over {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} for top pair top kicker and scooped the pot. The pot vaulted him up to 126,800.

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We caught up on this hand with the flop reading {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and the player known only as "Bruce" holding the button. After a bet of 5,700 by an opponent in the hijack position, "Bruce" made the call and the dealer turned the {4-Clubs}.

The hijack elected to check this time and "Bruce" fired a bet of 11,000 into the middle. His opponent quickly surrendered and our mystery man padded his stack.

We caught up with the action with Jackson Su and Gavin Griffin off to the races in an all-in confrontation. Griffin held the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} and needed help to surpass the {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} held by Su.

The board rolled out {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Griffin was eliminated, leaving Su to count count his massive stack of more than 220,000 chips, which puts him amongst our tournament leaders.

Rood Climbing

Livello 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

When the river landed the {4-Hearts} Rood moved all in to force his opponent's cards into the muck.

With that pot, Rodd moves to roughly 230,000 in chips.
