Not Too Much For Jacky

We have a new chipleader and he comes in the form of Singaporean / honorary Australian, Jacky Wang.

When we came to the table, an early position player had put in a min-raise and a middle position player had made the call. It was then on Wang in the big blind and he three-bet to 15,400. The early position player folded and it was on the player in late position.

"How much?" asked the player.

"You can not call. It is too much," replied Wang.

"I call," the player said with gusto, almost daring Wang to tell him what he can and cannot do.

When the {2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop was spread across the felt, Wang led out for 25,400.

"How much?" asked the player in his thick Russian accent.

"Too much! Way too much," replied Wang, goading his opponent to call.

The player obliged with a call and the {8-Hearts} was dealt on the turn. At this point Wang bet 57,500.

"How much?" asked the player yet again.

"I told ya, it's too much for you!" quipped Wang.

As soon as the words had exited Wang's lips, the player had shoved all in and Wang had instantly called.

Wang's opponent tabled {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, far too weak for the {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} which Wang held. The {5-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and with that huge hand, Wang is now sitting behind the biggest stack in the room.

Sameer Takes It Down

We arrived at the table to see Indian Sameer Rattonsey all in for his tournament life on a flop of {q-Spades}{4-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. We’re not sure how the pot had ballooned so quickly, but Rattonsey was all in for 54,500 following a bet of 16,200 from an early position player, and a third player was deep in the tank.

The player eventually folded, but the early position player called with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} for the overpair as Rattonsey showed {6-Spades}{7-Spades} for a pair and flush draw. Meanwhile the tanker was beside himself as he claimed to have folded pocket aces.

That didn’t matter when the {8-Spades} appeared on the turn to complete Rattonsey’s flush. He didn’t want to see anymore spades though, and the {9-Clubs} river was nice and safe for the double up.

Raising Eyebrows

We haven’t heard much from overnight chip leader Antonio Martins so far today. He’s been on a tough table and it’s only recently become a lot tougher with the addition of Team PokerStars Pros Celina Lin and Raymond Wu.

We caught Martins in a recent pot when he led for 4,200 on a flop of {7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. His opponent on the button made the call and the {9-Clubs} hit the turn. Martins checked, and then quickly called a bet of 9,500 as the {8-Diamonds} was the river card. Martins checked and his opponent also rapped the table.

Martins went to show but held back when his opponent flipped over {k-Spades}{j-Clubs} for a backdoor straight. Martins raised his eyebrows and mucked.

Crisis Averted

Whenever a tournament director is called to a table, it’s usually a good sign that something interesting is going down. So when we saw the floor called to the table of Michael Kanaan, we scurried over to check it out.

Kanaan had raised the button the minimum to 3,600. Kua Wei Zhong was in the small blind and he three-bet to 8,000. Nothing out of the ordinary there. When Kanaan tried to four-bet to 14,100, that’s where there must’ve been some dispute about the minimum bet size.

Usually the minimum is the size of the previous raise, however we have seen some casinos enforce the rule that the minimum is the size of the previous bet. Some quick number crunching was performed and the raise stood. Zhong decided to make the call and they saw a flop of {6-Spades}{k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Zhong checked and Kanaan’s bet of 16,000 was enough to take it down. Crisis averted.

Team Pro Update

Team PokerStars Pro's Celina Lin and Raymond Wu are seated at the same table, but their chip stacks couldn't be any different.

Wu is healthy on 70,000, winning some of those chips just a few moments ago when he three-bet out of the big blind and got two players to lay down their hands.

Lin is struggling as one of the short stacks in the field, but managed to shove all in a short while ago to pick up the blinds and antes.

Wu Surviving

Team Team PokerStars Pro Pro Raymond Wu has been flying largely under the radar so far today, navigating his way through the field without being able to get himself back up to an average chip stack.

Wu tangled in a recent pot by calling a min-bet in the big blind to see a {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop. Both players checked and Wu splashed out 4,800 on the {K-Diamonds} turn. His opponent called before both players checked the {Q-Diamonds} river.
Wu opened {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for just ace-high which wasn’t enough to better his opponent’s {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a lowly pair of sevens.
