Blumstein Hero Calls For Tournament Life

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The action was relayed to PokerNews after the fact. Scott Blumstein limped from the hijack and the small blind completed. Phil Badiola checked his option in the big blind and the trio saw a flop of J♥10♣3♣. All three players checked around and the 2♥ hit the turn.

The small blind checked again and Badiola bet 25,000, which only Blumstein came along. The 3♦ completed the board and Badiola moved all in, covering the 191,000 remaining for Blumstein, who went deep in the tank.

After much deliberation, Blumstein made the call and the hands were shown. Badiola tabled QxJx for a pair of jacks and Blumstein showed KxQx for the king-high hero call as he made his way to the payout desk.

Livello 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Emmanuel Lopez took 25,000 chips off his massive stack and put them in the middle for a raise from middle position. Charlie Chiu was on the button and called, and Mike Lancaster defended his big blind.

The trio then checked through the 8♥3♠9♥ flop before Lancaster led out 30,000 on the 3♥ turn. Lopez called while Chiu got out of the way.

Lancaster would fire another bet, this time of 40,000, when the 4♠ hit the river, and another quick call followed from Lopez. Lancaster shook his head while he tabled his 7♥6♦ for a failed bluff, while Lopez had turned trips with his 3♣2♣ and raked in another pot.

Meanwhile, one table behind, Dmitrii Kuzin was eliminated.
