Wil Wilkinson: XxXx/4♦A♦J♣9♥/Xx

Picking action up on sixth street, Dan Cates and Wil Wilkinson checked to Elior Sion who bet with his low board and got calls from both opponents.

On seventh, the action repeated with Sion betting again and only Cates calling.

Sion showed a flush and an eight-low to scoop the pot, putting another dent int the terminator's armor, to which Cates said in character after the hand, "Your destruction is imminent. It is inevitable."

Ivey Aggressive Early

Nível 2

No-Limit Hold'em

Action folded to Talal Shakerchi in late position who opened to 4,000. Phil Ivey was next to act and three-bet to 14,000. Shakerchi opted to peel three and made the call.

The 6♥10♦3♣ flop landed and action checked to Ivey. He didn't waste much time before putting out a continuation bet of 15,000.

Many have tried and failed at playing Ivey out of position in a three-bet pot and although he went into the tank for a moment, Shakerchi thought better of it and mucked his hand. Ivey wins a nice pot early with little resistance.

Yoon Rebuilds a Bit Through Glantz

MikePatrick

Nível 2

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

It's been a slow start for recent five-time bracelet winner Brian Yoon, but he recently got a few chips from last year's Mystery Bounty millionaire, Matt Glantz.

Yoon raised in the hijack and got three-bet by Glantz in the cutoff. Action folded back to Yoon who called.

Each player drew two cards and then Yoon bet and got called by Glantz.

The players now drew one and again Yoon bet and got a call from Glantz.

Yoon now stood pat while Glantz still needed a card.

Yoon bet a final time, but after checking his new card, Glantz folded his hand to send the pot to Yoon.

Nível 2

No-Limit Hold'em

Viktor Blom opened to 4,000 from the hijack and Ben Lamb defended out of the big blind.

Lamb checked on the flop of 7♦8♥Q♠ and Blom continued for 6,000. Lamb called. Lamb check-called again on the J♦ turn as Blom sized up to 16,500.

Lamb checked once more on the 9♠ river and Blom bet 31,000. "I'm probably not gonna fold," Lamb said before calling.

Blom tabled A♦10♠ for a rivered straight and took down the pot as Lamb mucked in defeat.
