O'Leary Cracks Aces to Avoid Elimination

OllieGarland

Niveau 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

A player in the cutoff raised the minimum to 80,000 and a player on the button three-bet jammed for 680,000. The decision was then on Grant O'Leary in the big blind, who decided to call all in for his remaining 315,000. The cutoff, in a tough spot, tanked for a short while before folding.

Grant O'Leary: K♠Q♥
Button: A♠A♣

As the flop came Q♣K♥10♠ O'Leary shouted "Come on!" as he erupted from his seat. The turn and river came the 7♥ and the 4♣. Deprived of a bounty, the pocket aces had been cracked. The player in the cutoff voiced to the table that he would have rivered a set of fours.

Yale Takes on Dzivielevski

Niveau 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Yale Greenfield opened in late position to 80,000 and got two time bracelet winner, Yuri Dzivielevski, to defend his big blind.

The Q♦7♣6♠ flop hit the felt and the action checked through.

The turn brought an A♣ and Dzivielevski checked again. Greenfield then put out a bet of 65,000 and action was back on Dzivielevski. Despite the ace typically being a better card for Greenfield, Dzivielevski opted to put in the turn check-raise to the tune of 150,000. Greenfield thought it over but ultimately mucked his hand and Dzivielevski took down the pot and chipped up.

Yale Greenfield	700,000 -275,000	-275,000

Yuri Dzivielevski	630,000 -235,000	-235,000

The details of the hand were related to PokerNews by a player at the table. A player limped from under the gun before a player in middle position moved all in. Action then folded around to a player in the small blind who re-jammed their stack of 500,000. David Ivers in the big blind made the call with the covering stack while the under the gun player put their remaining chips into the middle.

Under The Gun: J♦J♥
Middle Position: 10♣10♠
Small Blind: Q♦Q♠
David Ivers: A♠A♥

Ivers had picked up pocket rockets at a very opportune moment and was able to score a large pot to go along with three bounties after the board ran out A♦7♦5♠K♠7♠.

Rotman's Bounty Hunting

OllieGarland

Niveau 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Omer Rotman in early position raised to 80,000 which found the cutoff who decided to three-bet to 160,000.

Rotman calls and both players see a flop of K♥10♣3♥. Playing in flow, the action checked to the cutoff who continued for 160,000 again. Rotman then chose to check-raise to 775,000, putting his opponent's tournament life on the line for a bounty. After some time in the tank the cutoff folded.

Rotman gladly flashed his hand to PokerNews to reveal K♦3♦ before the dealer flipped it for the rest of the table to see.
