Wheeler Turns the Nuts

Livello 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

With 6,500 in the middle and four players in the pot, the action checked to Jason Wheeler on the J♥10♦5♦ flop and he fired out a bet of 6,500. Two players quickly folded and the final player in the hand made the call.

The Q♦ hit the turn and Wheeler's opponent announced pot and Wheeler splashed his remaining 6,600 into the middle immediately as he tabled A♦J♠7♠4♦ for the nut-flush.

His opponent pushed his cards face down as the 2♥ hit the river, securing his double up with the nut flush.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Four players saw a flop of 8♠5♦3♥ and one player checked before there was a pot-sized bet of 5,700. Thomas Taylor dropped five red chips across the line for a raise to 22,800 and it quickly folded back to the original bettor who struggled his shoulders as he called off his stack of 22,000.

All-In Player: A♦5♥4♣2♥
Thomas Taylor: K♥8♦6♥4♦

Taylor had flopped a pair and an open-ended straight draw and was able to dodge his opponent's wrap straight draw as the board completed with the Q♦ turn and 10♣ river.

Livello 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Vincent Lam raised to 1,200 in middle position and was called by both the small and big blind.

The 9♥6♦2♦ flop was checked through to see the 8♥ turn. The small blind led for 3,000 and the player next to act made the call before Lam put in a raise to 15,000. The original bettor folded and the player in the middle called off his stack of 7,800.

Opponent: A♣10♥6♥3♦
Vincent Lam: Q♠J♥10♠7♥

Lam turned a straight with a redraw to a queen-high flush, dominating his opponent's ten-high flush draw and the 3♠ river changed nothing as Lam pulled in the pot.

Brown Chips Up Big; Negreanu Joins The Field

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

A raise to 1,200 in late position was called by the small blind and Tyler Brown in the big blind. The flop spread, 8♦2♣4♥, the small blind checked and Brown bet 2,200. The preflop raiser then raised it to 6,000, the small blind folded, and Brown announced a pot sized raise to 22,100.

The late position player then went all in and Brown got the rest of the chips in.

Tyler Brown: 3♠5♠5♥8♠
Late Positon: 4♠5♦8♥6♣

Both players had plenty of the board they were interacting with but the 6x on the turn gave Brown a straight and the J♣ on the river proved to be a brick.

During the hand, Daniel Negreanu showed up to the table directly to Brown's left, having just registered. Negreanu was high energy and quickly questioned Brown if he was who he thought he was. The newly shaved head of Brown left Negreanu unsure if it was the Mystery Bounty champion. Mysterious, indeed.

Soon enough, Negreanu was camera in hand, interviewing Brown officially for his daily YouTube Vlog.

Livello 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Christopher Lee, on the button, raised to 1,500 and was called by the small blind and Fernando Habegger in the big blind.

The flop rolled off A♣3♣2♥ and the flop checked through, peeling the A♠. The small blind checked, and Habegger bet 3,500. Lee called and the player in the small bind folded.

The river brought the 7♦ and Habegger sized up to 12,000 and was jammed on by Lee. Habegger snapped his hand in the muck and Lee gladly showed the A♦A♥ to the table, showing he had turned quads.
