Livingston Bricks Out

Livello 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Alex Livingston raised to 2,000 in the hijack before Tommy Le three-bet to 7,000 on the button. The blinds got out of the way and Livingston made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of 8♣5♥3♥ and Livingston checked to Le, who continued for 10,000. Livingston quickly pushed his stack of about 16,000 across the line and Le wasted no time making the call, while rolling his hand face up.

Alex Livingston: K♥7♣8♦6♥
Tommy Le: A♥A♣J♦9♦

"Big flop," Said Livingston as he rolled over his hand, pointing out his wrap and flush draw.

The 3♦ turn and K♣ river were not the outs he was looking for as Le finished saying, "Shouldn't have said anything," and exited the tournament.

McNeil's Straight Not Good Enough

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

The hijack raised to 1,500 before Calen McNeil shoved his last 2,500 into the middle from the small blind. Fontaine Ferreira was in the big blind and flatted before the hijack reraised to 10,000. Ferreira responded by putting a small stack of reds across the line to cover his opponent's remaining 24,300. After a few moments, the hijack pitched his cards into the muck and both hands were tabled.

Calen McNeil: J♥10♣9♦8♠
Fontaine Ferreira: A♣K♥K♠6♥

The board ran out A♥A♠7♥6♠8♣, giving McNeil a straight, however, that wasn't enough as Ferreira made a full house.

Livello 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On a flop of Q♥7♦4♦, there was about 10,000 in the middle and Peiwen Wang had got the rest of his 15,900 against one opponent.

Peiwen Wang: Q♠Q♦J♣9♠
Opponent: A♣A♥6♣5♦

Wang had flopped set and his opponent had an overpair and an open-ended straight draw. The 4♣ turn filled Wang to a full house, leaving just the ace he had to avoid, which he managed to do as the 3♥ hit the river.

Worker Goes to Work

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

After a series of raises, the small blind and big blind were all in against Greg Worker under the gun.

Greg Worker: K♠3♠Q♣4♣
Small Blind: A♥A♦8♦Q♣
Big Blind: A♦8♦8♥J♥

"Oh no!" said Worker, seeing how the two players had many of his outs covered. The dealer spread a flop of K♦2♦Q♦ and it looked even more dire as the big blind had flopped a flush.

But his fortunes turned again with the K♣ on the turn, giving him a full house. He dodged the case ace on the river that would have made the small blind a better full house, and sent both blinds to the rail.

"You hit every card in your hand except the three," marveled another player at the table.

"That's my strategy," said Worker, "Get it in bad and pray."

Moore Day 1 Knockouts

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On a flop of 2♠8♣6♦ the big blind open-shoved and Jack Moore called from the button. When the cards were flipped it was Moore with Q♠Q♣10♣8♥ for a pair of queens, and backdoor clubs, and the big blind with 10♠10♦7♥6♠ for tens with a straight draw.

The 9♣ turn completed that straight, but added one more club to Moore's straight draw, which hit on a 4♣ turn. Moore sent the big blind either out or to the reentry line and he increased his stack to three times starting.
