Bradley Gets the Maximum

Livello 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The pot had already swelled to approximately 200,000 with two players looking at a completed board of A♥9♥6♦K♣Q♥.

Ian Bradley, in the big blind, bet out for 125,000, an effective all-in with just 20,000 behind the line. Sirzat Hissou, in the cutoff, went deep into the tank, eventually making the call.

Bradley tabled K♥6♥; a turned two pair that upgraded to the nut flush on the river.

Spragg Felted by Rebello

Livello 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Olivier Rebello made it 12,000 to go on the button with the 7♥7♣ and Benjamin Spragg defended the big blind holding the A♠7♠. The A♦K♣7♦ flop gave Spragg top and bottom pair, which he checked. Rebello bet 8,000 for the PokerStars ambassador to call.

They headed to the 9♥ turn on which Spragg checked again. Rebello now bet 26,000 into 49,000 and earned a call from Spragg, who needed an ace on the river.

Instead, it was the 6♠ river and Spragg checked with 66,000 behind. Rebello moved all-in and Spragg instantly called to see the bad news, then leave the main feature table.

Coutinho Shows Hudon Trips

Livello 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 10♦9♣10♠, Eliot Hudon bet 10,000 from the big blind before small blind Sergio Coutinho raised to 32,000. Hudon called and the 2♥ fell on the turn.

Coutinho led out for 45,000 and Hudon again called. The river was the 3♣ and Coutinho slowed down and checked. Hudon quickly checked back and Coutinho showed Q♣10♣ for trip tens to win the pot.

Despite taking that hit, Hudon has still increased his stack past 1,000,000 early on Day 3.

Smith Beats Ni in Showdown

Livello 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Elliot Smith raised to 12,000 with the K♣J♥ and Liangce Ni called from one seat over with the 8♥8♣. The J♣7♥4♣ flop was checked by Smith and he then checked a bet worth 15,000. Fast forward to the 5♦ turn, Smith checked once more and Li now bet 26,000.

Smith then noticed he had forgotten his time bank cards when moving tables and there was a small delay before they proceeded with the Canadian check-calling. That led to the 10♦ river on which both checked for Smith to win the pot.

Giocatore	Chip	Avanzamento
Liangce Ni	207,000 -147,000	-147,000
Elliot Smith	170,000 83,000	83,000
