Stephen Chidwick had been steadily building since the last time Pokenews had checked in on his stack.
Fast forward and Fabrice Bigot was all in and at risk against the bigger stack of Chidwick.
Fabrice Bigot: A♣Q♦
Stephen Chidwick: Q♣10♠
The board ran out clean as the dealer presented the 7♦2♥8♣7♣J♥, giving Bigot the pot with ace high.
With around 36,000 in the middle, there was one player who was all in while Eelis Parssinen and Aleksejs Ponakovs were heads-up in a dry side pot. The flop came 7♣5♦4♥ and Parssinen checked to Ponakovs who bet 5,500. Parssinen folded and the two remaining hands were tabled.
Opponent: K♦4♦
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 9♠9♥
The 7♥ on the turn and the A♦ on the river were safe for Ponakovs whose pocket nines held up to win the pot.
Picking up the action on the turn with the board reading Q♦3♠2♣J♠, the blinds were heads-up with around 13,000 in the middle. The small blind checked and Kristen Foxen tossed in a bet of 8,000 in the big blind. Her opponent called and the 10♦ landed on the river.
After a minute, the small blind checked again and Foxen put out a bet of 13,000, which prompted a snap-fold from her opponent this time.
Niveau: 7
Blinds: 500/1,000
Ante: 1,000
The players are being sent on a 60-minute dinner break and due back at the table at approximately 7:30 p.m. local time.
On a river reading 5♣4♠9♦2♣5♠, with two checks in front of him, the late position player bet 12,000 which extracted a guffaw from Eric "Barstool Nate" Nathan as he folded. Evgenii Fidchuk, however, did make the call and showed the 3♠6♠ without waiting for his opponent to show, prompting the late position player to launch their hand into the muck.
The very next hand Punnat Punsri raised in late position to 1,600 and was called by Nathan in the small blind, and Maria Ho in the big blind.
The flop rolled off the 2♠9♥5♥ and all three players tapped the table, prompting the 4♣ to roll off the deck.
Again, Nathan checked and this time Ho was the one to bet, to the tune of 4,000 which was then raised to 12,200 by Punsri. Nathan quickly folded.
Ho took some time with her decision and settled on a call. Heads up, they saw a river of the 4♣. Ho checked and Punsri assembled a pseudo all-in bet, just leaving himself one chip behind.
Ho was slow to release but did slide her hand forward, awarding the pot to Punsri.
