Urbanovich Eliminated by Arieh

Nível 15

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Josh Arieh raised in the hijack and a short-stacked Dzmitry Urbanovich put in a three-bet from the cutoff. Arieh called and then drew two to Urbanovich's one.

Arieh then check-raised a bet from Urbanovich, and the Polish star called, leaving just 40,000 back.

After they each drew one, Arieh bet, and Urbanovich called to put himself at risk, then the players revealed their hands.

Dzmitry Urbanovich: 5x4x3x2x/Xx
Josh Arieh: 8x7x6x2x/Xx

Arieh showed first and revealed a king, meaning anything but an ace, pair, or six would keep Urbanovich alive.

Unfortunately for him, he drew a 6x, giving him a straight to end his day shy of the money, leaving 17 players in the field.

Urbanovich and Tong Clash in Three-Bet Pot, Urbanovich Left Short

Nível 15

2-7 Triple Draw

Kristopher Tong raised from middle position and was three-bet by Dzmitry Urbanovich on the button. Tong made the call and drew three to Urbanovich's one, then check-raised a bet from Urbanovich after the first draw.

Tong was pat and Urbanovich drew one. The second betting round saw Tong bet, Urbanovich raise and Tong three-bet, with Urbanovich calling.

Both players were pat on the final draw and Tong bet. Urbanovich would again put in a raise and Tong would again put in a three-bet, but this time Urbanovich would make the fold, leaving him with under 200,000 left in chips.

Johnson Spikes River to Bust Klodnicki

Nível 15

Limit Hold'em

Marco Johnson opened on the button and then called after Chris Klodnicki three-bet out of the small blind.

Klodnicki continued on a flop of 7♠J♣6♠. Johnson responded with a raise only to see Klodnicki move the remainder of his chips into the middle. Not needing to call much more, Johnson duly put his opponent at risk.

Chris Klodnicki: K♠J♠
Marco Johnson: A♠7♥

Klodnicki was in excellent position to secure a full double, needing to fade a non-spade ace or seven. The 8♣ turn changed nothing but the A♦ river was a dagger to Klodnicki, sending him to the rail short of the money.

Nível 15

Limit Hold 'em

Hal Rotholz raised on the button and got a call from Josh Arieh in the big blind.

On the A♠J♦4♣ flop, the players checked to the 6♦ turn. Arieh checked and then Rotholz peeked at one of his cards and bet.

Arieh then check-raised, and with action back on Rotholz, he now peeked at his other card and then raised again.

Arieh called, and on the 3♠ river, he checked and then faced another bet from Rotholz. Arieh opted to fold his hand at this point to send the pot across the table.

Racener Doubles Through Arieh

MikePatrick

Nível 15

Pot-Limit Omaha

After John Racener opened to 40,000 in the hijack, Josh Arieh was in the small blind where he asked Racener, "like 600?" referring to Racener's remaining chip stack.

"530," replied Racener, before Arieh made the call, as did Dzmitry Urbanovich in the big blind.

The flop came 6♣A♣2♠, and after checks from Arieh and Urbanovich, Racener bet 50,000. Arieh then check-raised to 250,000 which got a fold from Urbanovich, but Racener then moved all in for what was actually 515,000 and Arieh called to put Racener at risk.

John Racener: A♠A♥Q♥10♠
Josh Arieh: K♣Q♣6♥5♦

Racener's top set was up against Arieh's flush draw. Arieh picked up more outs on the 3♠ turn, giving him a straight draw, but it also gave Racener an added flush draw too.

The river 2♥ filled up Racener to give him the double up and take a chunk out of Arieh's sizeable stack.

Becker Doubles Through Obst

[user38873]

Nível 15

No-Limit Hold'em

James Obst raised to 40,000 out of the small blind and was called by Johannes Becker in the big blind. Both checked the 10♠9♦8♠ flop and Obst checked the 4♣ turn. Becker now bet 45,000 only for Obst to check-raise to 160,000, which Becker called after a few seconds of consideration.

The A♦ fell on the river and Obst almost immediately announced the all-in, sending Becker into agony. He counted the 575,000 behind and dropped a single chip in for the call after around one minute.

Becker already exposed his J♦10♦ for a pair of tens and Obst flung his cards towards the muck.

"Sorry, I have to see them," Becker said and other players also pointed out that the cards had to be shown according to the showdown roles. The K♠5♥ of Obst were briefly exposed before he paid off the double to Becker.

Nível 14

Omaha Hi-Lo

Elior Sion raised and earned a call from Kristopher Tong in the cutoff. Josh Arieh then made it three bets on the button and Sion moved all-in for 92,000 total. Tong called the all-in to then also call a reraise by Arieh for another 25,000 on top.

On a flop of A♠Q♣6♣, Tong check-called a bet by Arieh and proceeded to do so again on the 4♣ turn and 10♠ river.

Arieh exposed his A♦K♣10♣3♥ for the king-high flush while Tong flipped over 5♣4♥3♦2♦ for the nut low.

Sion briefly tossed his A♣A♥J♠5♥ for a set of aces to the middle of the table before heading to the rail.

Nível 14

Stud Hi-Lo

Eric Wasserson: Q♣8♠4♥/4♦2♥A♦4♠
Matthew Ashton: K♥K♣J♠/J♣7♥2♦K♠
Talal Shakerchi: 8♦XxXx/A♣2♠5♦7♣

After Eric Wasserson completed, Matthew Ashton made it two bets to go, which Talal Shakerchi called, as did Wasserson to put himself all in.

On fourth and fifth streets, Ashton called bets from Shakerchi, and then they checked sixth street. Ashton bet seventh and got a call from Shakerchi.

Wasserson was hopeful that he'd survive with his trip fours for high, but that was crushed by Ashton's full house to eliminate Wasserson, while Shakerchi's low got him that half of the pot.

Rast Rivers Straight, Wasserson Left Short

Nível 14

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo

Eric Wasserson brought it in, Talal Shakerchi completed and Brian Rast raised, with both players making the call.

Eric Wasserson: XxXxXx/4♥A♥9♥A♠
Brian Rast: 7♣6♦3♦/4sks5hac]
Talal Shakerchi: XxXxXx/7♥3♣9♦9♥

Rast would control most of the betting with Wasserson putting in a raise on sixth street and both Rast and Shakerchi making the call.

Wasserson and Shakerchi both checked seventh street to Rast, who bet, with Wasserson calling and Shakerchi folding. Wasserson saw the bad news as Rast completed his straight to scoop, leaving Wasserson with dust.
