Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

A player in the cutoff opened to 16,000 and Bryce Yockey defended the big blind.

On the 5♠4♣J♣ flop, Yockey check-called a bet of 15,000.

An A♥ fell on the turn and after the Yockey checked, the cutoff bet 44,000. Yockey called.

Yockey checked for a third time on the board-pairing A♦ river, and the cutoff shoved. Yockey had 119,000 chips behind and made the call which put him at risk.

It was some time before the floor came over to allow the players to turn over their cards, but when they did, Yockey was the better off.

The cutoff showed Q♣4♦ for a pair of fours, but Yockey flipped 6♠5♥ for a pair of fives and doubled up on the bubble.

Seaton Avoids the Bubble

Livello 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Three tables were involved in the bubble, with someome at risk on each.

Action folded around to the small blind who limped pre-flop and Archibald Seaton checked from the big blind.

The 3♠9♥K♠ flop was when the small blind moved all in, putting the pressure on Seaton who was sitting with a much shorter stack. Seaton made the call and play was paused without the cards showing whilst other tables were still playing. Once it got down to three tables who were all in, the players flipped their cards.

Archibald Seaton: Q♦K♥ All in
Small Blind: 5♥8♦

The small blind needed to hit both the turn and the river to win the hand and the A♥K♦ runout gave Seaton the double and he avoided busting on the bubble.

Livello 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

A player in early position opened the action with a raise to 16,000. The cutoff called before Andrew Hedley raised all in for over 200,000. Both of his opponents frustratingly mucked, and Hedley took it down.

Early position asked Hedley. "Did you have a pair?" and he shook his head no saying, "You would have shoved with my hand too."
