Sean Winter opened to 36,000 from under the gun and Jean-Noel Thorel three-bet to 75,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Winter who announced he was all-in for over 400,000.
Thorel asked for a count, but decided to fold after a bit of thought to award Winter the pot uncontested.
The fourth season of the North American Poker Tour (NAPT) run by PokerStars is well underway and the action only continues to heat up with the recent schedule release for its marquee stop in Las Vegas. Running from Friday November 1st through Sunday November 10th at Resorts World Las Vegas, the series is not one to miss as it features a whopping 36 tournaments in the span of a week and a half.
Buy-ins range from just $250 all the way up to $25,000 so there are plenty of options for those who want to enjoy some live tournament action without breaking the bank while also providing an opportunity for high stakes regulars to satisfy their desire to play for eye watering sums of money. The high volume means the series comes with a healthy $4,000,000 in total guarantees, including a sizable $3,000,000 set aside for the $5,300 Main Event.
Leonard Maue opened to 25,000 from under the gun and then called after Patrik Antonius three-bet to 75,000 from the button.
On the K?6?4?, Antonius continued for 50,000 and Maue put in the call.
The turn brought the 3?. Maue checked to Antonius who opted to jam for 410,000 effective as the covering stack. Maue took some time but reluctantly folded in the end.
Vladimir Korzinin opened to 29,000 from early position and then called when Markkos Ladev jammed 100,000 from the hijack.
Markkos Ladev: K?Q?
Vladimir Korzinin: K?9?
Ladev was in great shape to double until the 9?8?7? board vaulted Korzinin into the lead. The A? on the turn gave Ladev a flush draw which came to fruition on the 3? river as Ladev spiked the river to survive.
