Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Carlos Leiva opened to 55,000 from middle position before Jason Koon made it 120,000 from the button. Tim van Loo went into the tank from the big blind before folding. Leiva put Koon all in and the latter called off his stack of 530,000.

Jason Koon: K♣K♠
Carlos Leiva: 10♣10♦

Koon was way ahead and improved to a set on the A♦K♦Q♠ flop, leaving his opponent drawing to Broadway or runner-runner quads.

The 8♠ turn was a brick, but the J♥ river completed Leiva's straight and Koon's Main Event journey came to an end.

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

The flop read J♥7♣5♦, and there was about 170,000 in the middle. Andrew Hulme fired a bet of 55,000, and Benjamin Grise thought about it for 20 seconds before making the call in position.

The 2♥ fell on the turn and Hulme continued for 115,000. Grise mucked his hand and the dealer pushed the pot to Hulme.

"No Bluff" For Sebesfi

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

David Sebesfi and Thupten Thondup were heads-up on a 10♠4♥Q♥ flop when Sebesfi, in the cutoff, bet 55,000 and Thondup called out of the big blind.

The turn came the 3♠ and Thondup checked over to Sebesfi, who fired out another 180,000. Thondup again called as the K♦ fell on the river.

Sebesfi then slid forward a stack of purple 100,000 chips, putting Thondup all in. Thondup, with around 350,000 remaining, tanked for about a minute before mucking.

"Show the bluff," a tablemate said to Sebesfi as he took the pot.

"No bluff," Sebesfi replied.

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Yu Tang opened to 55,000 from middle position. The hijack agonized briefly before placing his cards into the muck. Action folded around to Jon Kyte in the big blind, who called.

Kyte check-raised to 210,000 after Tang bet 75,000 on the Q♠9♣7♥ flop. The latter quickly folded and the next hand began.

Scroggins Doubles, Evens Stacks With Schneider

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Eric Schneider opened for 60,000 from middle position before Daniel Scroggins three-bet all in for 685,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded and Schneider asked for a count.

Once he received the exact number, he made the call as covering stack and the cards went on their backs.

Daniel Scroggins: A♥K♦
Eric Schneider: K♣Q♣

Shneider let out a big sigh and the J♦3♣A♠Q♦8♠ runout would not improve his mood. His pair of queens was inferior to Scroggins' pair of aces, and the players now played roughly the same stack.

Giocatore	Chip	Avanzamento
Eric Schneider	1,450,000 -785,000	-785,000
Daniel Scroggins	1,420,000 20,000	20,000

Christopher Ahrens opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Bryan Obregon called from two seats over. Aditya Systla three-bet to 180,000 thereafter and Ahrends then jammed for 645,000 total. Obregon folded and Systla called.

Christopher Ahrens: A♣K♣
Aditya Systla: A♠Q♣

The board ran out 10♣9♦6♥8♥3♣ and that secured the double for Ahrends.

"I had ace queen, too," Obregon mentioned in table chat.

Villa Makes a Wild Hero Call

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Nick Marchington opened to 50,000 in the hijack and Alexander Villa called from the small blind. The flop came 10♣7♠2♥ and Villa check-called a bet from Marchington.

The 2♦ paired the board on the turn and Villa led out with a bet of 50,000. Marchington raised to 200,000 and Villa stuck around for the 9♦ on the river. Villa checked this time and Marchington jammed all in, putting Villa to the test for his remaining 935,000. Villa gave it some thought before making the call and the cards were tabled which shocked the table.

Marchington rolled over K♦6♦ for complete air while Villa showed 5♠5♣ for the lone pair to earn a double up.

"What the f*** am I watching?" Maurice Hawkins exclaimed as he stood up from his chair. "I've got the popcorn ready!"

Thomas Zanot opened to 60,000 from the cutoff before Hang Xu moved all in for around 550,000 from the small blind. Chris Brewer, who was narrowly covered by Xu, called for his tournament life from the big blind before Zanot folded.

Chris Brewer: J♦J♣
Hang Xu: AxK♦

Xu paired up on the K♥10♠9♣ flop to take the lead and held out to seal the pot and bust out following the 2♦ turn and 5♦ river.
