Giuseppe Iadisernia defended the big blind and check-raised the 7♠4♦3♠ flop to then lead the J♦ turn for 25,000. Benjamin Pollak raised to 125,000 with some 32,000 behind and Iadisernia went into the tank. Ultimately, he opted to fold and flashed the 7♦4♣ face-up.
"Come on, show it, Benjamin, show it for the blog" Martin Zamani joked but Pollak just raked in the pot without revealing anything at all.
Erwann Pecheux opened to 4,500 and soccer superstar Sergio Aguero three-bet jammed a stack of 53,000 behind him. Pecheux called with a bigger stack.
Sergio Aguero: A♦Q♥
Erwann Pecheux: A♠K♦
Aguero was dominated and Matthew Wantman informed him that one of his outs was dead. "I folded king-queen," he told the table. "I was drawing dead."
The 5♥2♠8♥ flop didn't change anything, but the 2♥ turn created some flush and chop possibilities. "Heart! Eight!" cheered tablemate Daniel Negreanu, whose shirt was recently ripped by Martin Kabrhel "and those long nails he has."
The dealer then put down the Q♠ river and Negreanu and others cheered as Aguero earned the double.
Action was heads up with a full board of K♦6♣4♠4♦3♥ when Jinho Hong went all in. Lewis Spencer spent a moment in the tank before he flicked out a chip to look Hong up. Hong tapped the table and said "gg" as he turned over 10♦9♦ for absolutely nothing. Spencer showed A♦Q♦ to take the pot with slightly more nothing.
Scott Bohlman three-bet and then called all-in when Joshua Mullins went over the top for both players to reveal a pocket pair.
Scott Bohlman: K♣K♦
Joshua Mullins: 10♥10♦
The dominated pair caught up until the J♠8♠7♥9♥ turn but the 10♣ river provided a straight on the board for the chop.
Olga Iermolcheva opened to 4,000 from the button before Martin Kabrhel three-bet to 41,000 from the small blind, leaving only 1,000 behind. Eyal Revah then moved all in from the big blind, covering both players. Iermolcheva got out of the way and Kabrhel flicked in his last chip to put himself at risk.
Martin Kabrhel: A♣K♦
Eyal Revah: A♠6♠
Kabrhel looked to be in excellent shape to score a double up but the J♣6♥2♣ flop left him drawing to just three outs. Kabrhel found no help on the J♦ turn or 9♥ river and was eliminated just a few hands after entering the tournament while Revah continued to build upon an already impressive stack.
In a heads-up pot on a board of 10♠A♥9♦4♥, Jose Zurita checked and Gonzalo Aranaz bet 12,000. Zurita check-raised all-in and Aranaz called off with a smaller stack.
"Misclick got me in trouble," he said as he called.
Gonzalo Aranaz: A♠J♦
Jose Zurita: A♣K♣
Aranaz was dominated and didn't improve on the 3♦ river to be sent to Margaritaville.
Niveau: 10
Blinds: 1,000/2,000
Ante: 2,000
One day after being accused of cheating a California home game out of millions, Tony Mars issued a statement to PokerNews denying the allegations.
Wesley Fei and Nikhil "Nik Airball" Arcot, both Hustler Casino Live regulars, claim that Mars, who also plays on HCL, brought a special UV-marked deck that allowed him to decipher face-down cards.
The alleged scandal occurred in a game at a private residence in Yorba Linda, California, a community in Orange County.
The World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise $5,300 Main Event kicked off on Saturday at Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas, and officials took the opportunity to reveal to players what they’ll receive it they’re fortunate enough to finish as the last player standing.
In addition to a seven-figure payday, the winner will receive a new WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet that is hand-crafted by Jostens and features an island spin on the classic WSOP Main Event bracelet. Custom made from 10-karat yellow gold, just like the summer’s trophy, the WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet weighs nearly 95 grams and is hand-set with 494 genuine blue topaz round stones.
“The WSOP Main Event bracelet is considered the richest trophy in sports, and our first Main Event bracelet for WSOP Paradise puts a fun spin on the trophy’s legacy,” said WSOP Vice President Gregory Chochon. “This is the World Series of Poker, we’re global and need a proper World Championship trophy to represent the newest home we’ve added to the series. Jostens delivered on that vision once again, and we can’t wait to see who takes home the first-ever WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet.”
