Elimination for Moorman

Livello 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

In a multi-way pot, action caught up on the J♥5♣K♥ flop with a player in the small blind betting a pot-sized bet of 20,000 and Chris Moorman raising to 80,000 from early position, with another player in middle position contemplating a call.

The middle position player got out of the way and the player in the small blind committed the rest of his chips, which was less than the full raise.

Small Blind Player: A♥10♥9♦6♣
Chris Moorman: A♦A♣K♦J♣

Moorman flopped two-pair but would need to fade quite a few cards to win.

The 3♣ on the turn helped neither player, but the J♦ on the river would give Moorman the full house and the win, eliminating the player in the small blind.

No-Limit Hold'em

Scott Eskenazi raised to 5,000 in early position and only Brandon Shack-Harris came along in the big blind.

Both players checked to the river on the A♠10♥3♥8♥8♣ board. Shack-Harris checked once more and Eskenazi fired out a bet of 9,000.

Shack-Harris went into the tank for about a minute and a half as he said, "I don't want to pay you off."

A few more seconds went by and Shack-Harris tabled the 10♦ as he pushed his other card into the muck.

"I'll show you," said Eskenazi, while tabling A♥4♥ for the nut flush.

Shack-Harris concluded, "I owe you one, let me know whenever."

Livello 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Cord Garcia limped under the gun, as did the cutoff, and the big blind checked his option.

The flop came K♥9♣3♣ and the big blind checked before Garcia made a bet of 6,500. The cutoff folded and the big blind made the call.

"I know what you have," said Garcia to the big blind. "I can read you like a book."

The J♣ hit the turn and both players checked to see the 7♠ on the river.

The big blind checked and Garcia fired out a bet of 17,000. The big blind made the call and Garcia tabled A♥A♦10♥8♠ for a straight and his opponent mucked his hand.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel limped under the gun, followed by the hijack and Michael Perrone raised 8,500 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Kabrhel and after a bit of speech, he called. The hijack mucked her hand.

"Good luck in your next tournament," Said Kabrhel to the short-stacked Perrone.

"Thank you, all the best to you as well," he responded.

As the dealer fanned the Q♣8♣8♦ flop, Kabrhel announced a check blind and Perrone pushed the rest of his 11,000 across the line. Kabrhel quickly folded and the dealer pushed the pot to Perrone.
