Livello 20 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 7,000 ante

David Rheem: XxXx/3♠10♠5♦5♠/Xx
Joao Vieira: XxXx/K♥Q♦9♥4♠/Xx

David Rheem was the bring-in and the action folded to Joao Vieira, who was last to act. He completed and Rheem made the call.

Rheem then called another bet on fourth street before fifth street went check-check. Rheem bet out when his five paired on sixth street and Vieira called this time.

On seventh, Rheem checked to Vieira and the latter put out a bet. Rheem thought over his predicament out loud, flashing Ax4x3x to the table in the process.

Eventually, he called the two pair, whereafter Vieira instantly announced: "Kings up." He showed the K♦Q♠3♦ for kings and queens and raked in the sizable pot.

Matusow needed a nine or a six to make a full house and miraculously hit it as he peeled the 9♦.

"Oh my god! Holy shit!" cheered Matusow.

Blumenthal Binks Two Pair to Double Up

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 20 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 7,000 ante

Eddie Blumenthal: A♥5♥/2♣A♠3♠3♥/J♠
Andres Korn: XxXx/6♥ - folded third street
Bruno Fitoussi: Q♣J♥/Q♦2♠K♥10♣/8♠

Short stack Eddie Blumenthal brought it in before Andres Korn completed. Bruno Fitoussi stuck in a three-bet and Blumenthal raised. That was enough to force Korn out of the hand but Fitoussi made the call.

Fitoussi then went on to call Blumenthal's bets on fourth and fifth street, by which point Blumenthal was all-in. He had already made a pair of aces against the pair of queens of Fitoussi and improved to two pair on fifth street.

Sixth street saw Fitoussi get some extra outs in the form of an open-ended straight draw, but the eight on seventh street give him none, and Blumenthal overtook him in the counts.
