Reichard Barrels Every Street

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

A player opened to 11,000 in first position which saw action fold around to Josh Reichard in the big blind.

On the 6♥4♥3♣ Reichard rhino charged 12,000 on the flop which saw his opponent call.

Reichard bet once more on the 10♠ turn, this time to the tune of 33,000 and his opponent called once more.

The river peeled off a J♦ and Reichard bet 110,000 which his opponent called. Reichard turned over Q♦J♥ for a pair of jacks which was good for the pot and the 14-time WSOPC ring winner took down the pot.

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

Isaac Haxton raised to 12,000 in middle position and Darren Elias defended from the big blind. The flop fell J♣10♠6♦ and Elias check-called a bet of 24,000 from Haxton.

The turn was the 5♠ and Elias checked again. Haxton sized up a bet of 60,000 and Elias stuck around to see the 9♦ on the river. Elias checked one more time and Haxton dropped in a stack of chips to put Elias to the test for his remaining 123,000 chips.

Elias used one of his time banks and then made the call. Haxton tabled K♠K♣ for an over pair while Elias could only muster a pair of jacks with Q♦J♦.
