: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
There was 35,000 in the pot and the board read 
with three players in the hand. The action was checked around and the turn was dealt. The big blind checked and so did Lucianos Andres Lopez. The last player to act bet 13,000. The big blind raised to 28,000 and Lopez just smooth-called. The initial better folded and they were heads up to the river.
The river was the 
and the big blind moved all in for his remaining 43,000. Lopez snap-called and rolled over 
for quads and scooped a nice-sized pot.

Sparsdale Coolers Two Opponents
Nível 17
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Mike Sparsdale raised from early position and an opponent shipped all in from middle position. Another opponent re-jammed all in for around 100,000 in late position. When the action was back on Sparsdale, he was undoubtedly calling as he was holding the best hand in poker: pocket aces. One opponent had pocket queens and the other opponent held ace-king. The board ran out clean for Sparsdale and he now sits at the top of the leaderboard nearing the end of Day 1a.
