Sung Lee raised from early position to 22,000, the player to her direct left three-bet to 60,000 and Jiana Sheng in the small blind put in the cold four-bet to 135,000. Both players called.

The flop came K♦5♠7♠. Sheng bet out 140,000 and only Lee continued.

The turned J♣ saw Sheng commit 350,000 chips to the middle. Lee responded by moving all in for approximately 800,000.

After some time in the tank, Sheng found the fold. Lee noted the presence of PokerNews which prompted her to table A♠A♦.

Lonis Prevails in Raising War

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A player opened to 21,000 from the cutoff before Jesse Lonis three-bet to 82,000 out of the small blind. The big blind got out of the way to send the action back to the cutoff player who, after some thought, came back over the top for 200,000. After verifying the bet total, Lonis re-checked his cards before announcing a five-bet to 390,000. His opponent gave it some thought but ultimately decided to pick a better spot and tossed his cards away. Lonis, meanwhile, flashed AxQx before raking in a sizable preflop pot that sees him eclipse the 1,000,000 mark.

Mercier Put to The Test by Liu

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

In a heads-up pot with roughly 50,000 in the middle on a flop showing 5♠3♦2♣, Jason Mercier checked from the big blind to Jason Liu on the button who bet out 25,000. Mercier put in a check-raise to 67,000 and Liu came along.

The 2♠ hit the turn and Mercier kept up the aggression with a bet of 61,000. Liu took a moment before putting in a stack of 25,000 chips, covering the 160,000 behind for Mercier, who went deep in the tank.

After close to five minutes of thought, a player at the table called the clock and Mercier was given 30 seconds to act. As the clock ticked down, Mercier eventually tossed his cards into the muck and the pot was shipped to Liu.

"Four-seven of spades?" asked another player at the table who was curious of Mercier's holding.

"Something like that," replied Mercier.
