Double for DeStefano

Livello 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Dylan DeStefano raised pot to 5,500 from late position and was called by a player on the button and a player in the small blind.

DeStefano shipped in his last 13,000 after being checked to on 10♠3♣5♦ flop, getting a call from the player on the button, and the player in the small blind folding.

Dylan DeStefano: K♥K♣8♠4♥
Button Player: Q♠10♥9♠2♣

It was top pair for DeStefano's opponent, but his overpair of kings would hold on the 3♠ turn and the 8♦ river, giving DeStefano the much-needed double.

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.

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.

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

In a heads-up pot, the flop was Q♥8♥2♣ and Vivian Saliba checked to her opponent who put in a bet of 7,500 into the pot of about 16,000. Saliba took her time before check-raising to 25,000 and her opponent jammed for about 60,000. She quickly called.

Opponent: Q♣10♠
Vivian Saliba: 7♥5♥

The 9♥ hit the turn immediately, giving Saliba a flush and her opponent was eliminated as the 4♦ rolled off on the river.

Action caught up with Starostin placing a roughly pot-sized river bet on a board reading 5♠A♦10♦9♦9♥ and his opponent in the big blind contemplating a call.

After a few moments of deliberation, the player in the big blind decided to put in the chips, with Starostin announcing, "flush," and tabling A♠K♦K♥6♦ for a diamond flush and the player in the big blind mucking.

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

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."
