Little Puts Opponent to the Test

Nick Becker

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action picked up on the river in a hand between Jonathan Little, who was under the gun, and the player in the hijack.

With roughly 250,000 in the pot and the board reading 7?J?A?Q?7?, Little led out with a bet large enough to put his opponent all in, who had about 185,000 behind.

The hijack went deep into the tank before eventually tossing his cards into the muck.

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Rex Maiden was in the big blind and went heads-up to a flop of J?9?8?. An opponent in early position then moved all in for around 300,000 and Maiden put him at risk.

All-In Player: A?J? All in
Rex Maiden: 10?7?

The at-risk player showed top pair, but Maiden has flopped a straight and was a big favorite to score the knockout. The rest of the board came Q?9? and Maiden took the pot to send his opponent to the rail.

Miles Barnum also recently busted. "I shoved for three bigs with ace-ten and the guys calls blind. He has ace-jack," Barum said.

"I was never above 100,000 all day. That's printing money. That's like a final table jump," Barnum added after securing a pay jump.

Keating Sends Perez Into Tank in Long Hand

Jeff McMillan

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

Action was joined on the flop with the board reading A?K?10?. From the hijack, Alex Keating bet 70,000. Roberto Perez raised to 170,000 from middle position, Keating called, with each action taking at least two minutes.

The turn was the 4?. Both players checked.

The river came the 8?. Perez thought for a full minute before leading for 275,000. Keating thought for a couple of minutes himself before jamming all in.

Perez leaned back and prepared for a long tank as his remaining amount of about 875,000 was at stake. He shifted in his chair a few times as the table around watched as well with their table also in the midst of a big river decision hand. With the cameras on him, Perez finally laid it down after a 5 minute and 22 second tank (per the tourney clock at start of decision).

Keating held on to his cards for a while as he contemplated whether to show or not, and eventually slid them into the muck face down as his holding remained a mystery.

Player	Chips	Progress
Alex Keating	2,340,000 730,000	730,000

Roberto Perez	875,000 489,000	489,000

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

Action went three-ways to the flop of 3?K?J? in a hand between John Hennigan in early position, the player on the button and the player in the big blind.

It checked through to the 5? turn, where the big blind checked, Hennigan bet 35,000, the button folded, as did the big blind.

The next hand, Hennigan raised to 20,000 from under the gun, and got called by the players in the cutoff, button, and big blind.

The 3?5?5? flop checked through to the 5? turn. The big blind checked, Hennigan bet 35,000, the cutoff and button got out of the way, as did the big blind.

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

A player in early position raised to 22,000 before John Borges moved all in for 173,000 in middle position. Gabriel Moura called on the button, as did the original raiser.

Both players checked the 5?2?3? flop. The turn was the 6? and Moura bet 80,000. His opponent called to create a side pot and they both checked down the 5? river.

Borges showed 10?10?, but Moura turned over J?J?. "Oh, you do outpip me," Borges said before wishing the table good luck and making his way to the payout desk.

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

Heads-up to the 10?9?5?A? turn, Bin Weng checked in the big blind and Aleksejs Ponakovs bet 45,000 on the button. Weng then check-raised to 191,000 and Ponakovs reluctantly called.

They ended up checking the 6? on the river and Weng tabled the K?3? for the missed nut flush draw. Ponakovs won the pot with A?Q? and as he raked in the pot, the Latvian joked "if you go all-in, I shit my pants".

Frank Visser

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

Keith McKuin raised preflop from under the gun and was three-bet by Hector Berry in the seat next to him. McKuin called to create a pot of 150,000 chips and see the flop of Q?J?5?.

McKuin checked, Berry continued for 55,000 chips, and McKuin called. Both players checked on the 10? turn before the 9? river completed the board.

McKuin checked for a third time, but Berry piled in a massive bet of 325,000 chips. McKuin spent some minutes in the tank before calling off about half his stack.

Berry opened up K?Q? for a rivered straight flush, sending McKuin's cards into the muck.
