Clements Gets a Big Blind Special

Nível 16 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Jared Hemingway raised in the hijack and was called by Andrew Seabright on the button and Scott Clements in the big blind.

The flop came 2♠3♦J♦ and Hemingway continued with a bet. Both Seabright and Clements called to the 2♦ turn.

Action checked to Seabright and he bet. Clements now came back with a raise and both opponents called. Clements led out on the 2♥ river and only Hemingway called this time.

Clements turned over J♥10♥7♣2♣ for quad deuces and took the pot.

"That's how you become chip leader. Defend the big," a tablemate said following the hand.

Kessler Gets Quartered

Nível 16 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Big O

Ben Tang limped in the cutoff along with Allen Kessler from the small blind. The big blind checked their option and all three saw a 7♣5♦2♠ flop.

Kessler and the big blind checked over to Tang who bet out 3,000. Kessler called and the big blind folded, leading to a 2♦ turn card.

Kessler and Tang both checked through to the 3♣ river, which saw Kessler lead for the first time in the hand with a bet of 5,000. Tang answered back by potting to put Kessler all in and after about five seconds, Kessler said, "Wow," before sliding his chips into the pot.

Kessler showed the 10♣10♠6♦4♣3♥ but was sharing the same high hand (six-high straight) with Tang's A♣6♣6♠5♠4♠ with Tang also holding the nut low.

Tang chipped up nicely in the hand while Kessler started the day getting quartered.

Matusow Chops a Pot, Gives Zamani a Lesson

Nível 16 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Big O

Martin Zamani had just chopped a pot at Mike Matusow's table when afterward Matusow discussed the strategy of the hand with him.

"Mike, don't give Martin lessons in this," Shaun Deeb called over from another table.

"What, I'm an expert," Zamani replied, pointing to his 250,000 stack.

Matusow then got involved in his own pot, raising to 2,000 and getting called by Mark Roland in the big blind.

Both players checked the J♥7♠6♦ flop before Roland led out for 5,000 on the K♠ turn.

Matusow called and Roland checked the 5♥ river. Matusow checked behind and Roland turned over K♦J♣ for two pair. Matusow had A♠3♠ for the low and they split another pot at this table.

Deeb, meanwhile, has already increased his stack on Day 2 to 275,000.

Action folded to Calen McNeil in the small blind who limped and Alexander Christian checked his option in the big blind to see the flop come 5♥9♠3♥.

McNeil led out with a bet and was called by Christian leading to a 6♣ turn card.

McNeil bet again, and again, Christian came along with a call to see the J♦ land on the river.

Both players checked through to showdown. Christian showed the A♣7♣6♥3♦ for two pair and seven-low which was good enough to scoop McNeil's K♥8♠3♠2♦, one pair and eight-low.

Nível 16 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

As the table was comparing Anatolii Zyrin's fisherman cap to Indiana Jones, Ash Gupta raised in middle position and was called by Maksim Pisarenko in the cutoff, button Heiko Hinkelmann, and Zyrin in the big blind.

The flop came 7♣4♦5♥ and action checked to Pisarenko, who tossed out a bet and all three opponents called.

Pisarenko bet again on the 7♦ turn and again, he received three calls. The river came the A♦ and Pisarenko bet for the third time.

Hinkelmann then raised and Zyrin called. Gupta folded, but Pisarenko put in another raise. Both Zyrin and Pisarenko called.

Pisarenko turned over A♥J♦3♦2♠ for the nut low, while Hinkelmann had A♣J♥7♥5♦ for a full house and he and Pisarenko split up Zyrin's and Gupta's contributions to the pot.

Nível 16 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Abdullah Al-Shanti limped in from late position with the small blind calling and Carey Pickus checking her option in the big blind to see a 3♦Q♥8♥ flop.

All three players checked through to the 5♠ turn card. Pickus checked to Al-Shanti who tossed out a bet of 4,000. The small blind folded and Pickus called to see the 2♠ fall on the river.

Pickus checked to Al-shanti once again, who tossed out a bet of 8,000. Pickus quickly folded and Al-Shanti was generous enough to turn over A♦J♥6♣4♠, showing her that he had the goods.
