Terry Fleischer: 8♠8♥

Monica K

Niveau 19 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The board read K♥10♦7♦9♣. Yuzhou Yin was first to act in the big blind and checked the turn. After a few moments of thinking, Asher Conniff on the cutoff checked behind. The pot was already around 150,000 at that point.

The river was the 8♦. Yin decided to make a small bet of 23,000, which Conniff, after some time thinking, raised to 150,000. While this was not enough to put Yin all in, it wouldn’t leave him with much had he called and lost. Yin thought for a minute and then finally put a small stack of chips on the table in front of him. Conniff confidently turned over A♠Q♦ and Yin almost mucked his hand, seeming to think Conniff had connected on the wet board. But he pulled his cards back at the last second, looked at the dealer, double-checked his opponent’s hand, and then finally turned over 9x7x for the winning two pair.

The very next hand Yin picked up another pot and now sits on a stack of about 40 big blinds.

Bryce Welker open-shoved for 166,000 from under the gun and Pierce Mckellar reshoved from the next seat. Everybody else at the table folded.

Bryce Welker: Q♣10♣ All in
Pierce Mckellar: 9♣9♠

Welker punched the air in delight when he saw the Q♥6♥J♣ flop and managed to hold on as the 4♥ turn nor 7♦ river changed anything.

Noah Bronstein opened to 33,000 from the hijack and Keith Lehr three-bet to 108,000 from the small blind. Bronstein took a look at his opponent's stack then shoved all in, which left Lehr with a decision for his last 200,000 chips. After some time thinking, Lehr reluctantly released his cards back to the dealer and folded.

Vitor Dzivielevski made an under-the-gun raise to 32,000 and Alex Keating three-bet to 90,000 from the cutoff. When the action got back to Dzivielevski, he shoved all in for around 275,000, and Keating quickly called.

Vitor Dzivielevski: A♣K♥ All in
Alex Keating: J♦J♣

A classic coinflip that went the way of Dzivielevski as he paired his king on the K♠7♦6♠8♠10♦ runout.

Nenad Dukic raised to 35,000 from the button and Xiaohu Liu called from the big blind.

They both saw a flop of 4♥5♦K♦ and Liu check-called a bet of 26,000 from Dukic.

The board-pairing 4♣ fell on the turn and both players checked to see a 10♦ hit the river. Liu checked, Dukic fired a hefty bet of 175,000, and Liu eventually folded.

John Ripnick raised to 35,000 in the cutoff before Jiacong Zhang moved all in for 90,000 on the button. "Gamble," Ripnick yelled out as he called.

Jiacong Zhang: A♠A♣ All in
John Ripnick: K♣J♠

"Oh, wow, how do you get aces," Ripnick said upon seeing Zhang's cards. The flop came 9♦A♦6♦ and Zhang improved to top set, while the Q♦ turn gave Ripnick a straight draw.

"Ten," Ripnick pleaded, but the river was the J♥ instead and Zhang doubled up.

"I'm so greedy," Ripnick added as he paid off Zhang.
