Vornicu Gets Aggressive

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Valentin Vornicu raised to 800 in early position which saw only the button and the big blind call.

On the A♠Q♠J♣ flop, the big blind checked to Vornicu who bet 900, which saw the button raise to 2,300.

The big blind got out of the way and Vornicu responded by raising to 7,000 which saw his opponent quickly cede the pot the 12-time WSOP ring winner.

Also at the table is recent WSOP $10,000 Stud Eight or Better Runner up Bryn Kenney.

Tasker Stays on Task, Calls A River Raise

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

The player under the gun limped only to see the player to his direct left raise to 1,300. Sean Tasker called from the small blind as did the initial limper under the gun, leading to a Q♦6♣5♥ flop.

Tasker and the under-the-gun player checked and the initial raiser continued with a bet of 1,000. Tasker called and the under-the-gun limper both called to bring out the 10♥ on the turn.

Action checked through on the turn to bring the K♦ out on the river.

Tasker chose to lead for the first time in the hand and did so with a bet of 2,000. The under-the-gun player folded to the initial pre-flop raiser who thought for a moment before counting out chips and tossing in a raise to 8,500.

Tasker, not a buyer of what his opponent was trying to sell, tossed in the call and turned over 6♥6♠ for a set of sixes which was well ahead of the J♦J♣ of his opponent.

The jacks hit the muck and the dealer pushed the pot in Tasker's direction.

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Jean Lhuillier opened to 700 in the cutoff and only got called by the big blind to go see a flop 3♦Q♣6♥. The big blind quickly check-called Lhuillier for 400.

On the 2♦ turn, it checked again to Lhuillier who sent another bet for 1,800 and it was enough to win the pot without more resistance.

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Both checked on the 8♥Q♦A♣ flop and a 9♥ hit the turn. Drumm led out for 2,500 and it was enough to make his opponent fold his hand.

Ufano Pardo Chips Up

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A late position player raised to 2,200 and Jorge Ufano Pardo made it 7,500 from the small blind.

Ufano Pardo continued for 5,200 on a J♦J♣9♣ flop, and the late position player put in the call, leaving 19,000 behind.

When the 7♥ hit the turn, Ufano Pardo put that 19,000 to the test, betting 20,000. The late position player went deep in the tank, leaning back with his head behind his head as he looked back and forth at the flop, his chip stack, and Ufano Pardo, now burrowed deep into his hoodie.

As the break announcement came and went, and players started making their way to the exits, just those two remained. The late position player finally decided to fight another day and folded.
