Hands #139-143: Three Handed Action

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Hand #139: Brandon Paster opened to 80,000 and the other two folded.

Hand #140: Marcel Vonk completed from the small blind and Paster made it 120,000 to go from the big blind. Vonk called. The players would check down the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} board and Paster would win the pot with his {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{2-Diamonds}.

Hand #141: Vonk opened to 80,000 and Gabriel Nassif called from the big blind. The flop came {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and Nassif check-folded to Vonk's 80,000 wager.

Hand #142: Nassif completed the small blind and Vonk checked his option from the big blind. The flop came {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Nassif bet 40,000 and Vonk folded.

Hand #143: Nassif limped in from the button, Vonk called from the small blind, and Paster checked his option from the big blind. The flop came {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and all three checked. The turn was the {8-Spades} and Nassif and Paster would fold to Vonk's 80,000 bet.

Hand #137: Gabriel Nassif raised to 80,000 and won the blinds.

Hand #138: Matt Humphrey opened to 85,000 and it was folded to Brandon Paster who re-raised the pot. Humphrey insta-shoved for the rest of his stack and Paster called. Their hands were as follows:

Humphrey: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Paster: {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The flop came {7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} giving Paster an open-ended straight draw. He would get there on the {10-Hearts} turn but that would also give Humphrey outs to the nut flush. The river was the {8-Clubs} and an excited Paster went over to his rail. "Run good," he said. "Run f***ing good!" Humphrey was eliminated in fourth place which was good for $74,306.

Hand #131: Matthew Humphrey raised to 125,000 from the button and claimed the blinds.

Hand #132: Marcel Vonk limped from the small blind and Brandon Paster raised to 120,000. Vonk called and they saw the {K-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop. Vonk moved all in for 230,000 and got called.

Vonk: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Paster: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

The {9-Clubs} turn gave the Dutchman a straight and the {K-Clubs} river completed the board.

Hand #133: Matthew Dames raised to 150,000 and got the blinds without resistance.

Hand #134: Dames raised to 110,000 from early position and Humphrey called in the big blind to see the {10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop. Humphrey bet 175,000 and then called all in for another 135,000 when Dames moved all in.

Humphrey: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{K-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Dames: {7-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

Both the {8-Diamonds} turn and the {8-Spades} river blanked and Humphrey doubled up, Dames is now really short.

Hand #135: Gabriel Nassif raised to 80,000 from the button and got the blinds.

Dames doubled up on the {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} board and the two swapped stacks.

Hand #122: Brandon Paster received a walk in the big blind.

Millard Hale Eliminated in 6th Place ($41,121)

Hand #120: Brandon Paster opened for 85,000 and Millard Hale re-raised the pot making it a total of 315,000. It was folded back to Paster who re-raised enough to set Hale all in. Hale snap-called and the hands were turned face up:

Hale: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Paster: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Hale was in the lead but that would change quickly on the {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop as Paster flopped trips with the nut flush draw. The turn was the {K-Clubs} and Hale would need to hit the {A-Diamonds} or {K-Diamonds} to stay alive. The river was the {4-Diamonds} and Paster's hand would hold up eliminating Hale in sixth place.
