Hellmuth Catches a Bluff

Livello 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Phil Hellmuth opened to 13,000 from under the gun, and a player in the big blind defended.

Both players checked the K♦7♣10♣ flop leading to the 3♠ turn. The big blind bet 35,000, and Hellmuth made the call.

The big blind fired again on the K♠ river, this time opting to bet a smaller size of 15,000. Hellmuth immediately made the call.

Hellmuth tabled Q♣Q♥ for two pair, kings and queens, while the big blind could only showdown 9♥8♦ for a missed straight draw turned into a bluff on the river.

Weisner Gets the Double After Beat From Hansen

Livello 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

A player from early position raised to 10,000, and Melanie Weisner moved all-in for 85,000 from late position, getting the call from the original raiser.

Melanie Weisner: A♣J♥
Early Position Player: J♠J♦

Weisner was well behind the jacks of the early position player heading into the flop but would take over the lead after the dealer rolled out the 7♥A♠6♣ board.

The 3♥ on the turn and the 8♦ on the river would be of no help to the early position player, and secured Weisner the much-needed double.

Hansen Sigh Calls Weisner Shove to Double

Livello 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With 37,000 in the middle on a flop of 8♠6♠5♣, Melanie Weisner announced all in from the big blind to put Todd Hansen at risk in middle position for 55,000. Hansen looked at his cards again and exhaled cautiously "I guess I call."

Todd Hansen: J♦J♠
Melanie Weisner: Q♠5♠

Hansen was ahead with the over-pair, but had to dodge a ton of outs as Weisner had a pair of fives and a flush draw. The run out was safe for Hansen as the 10♦K♥ completed the board and a much-needed double-up close to the bubble.

With the board reading J♥3♥2♥Q♣ and about 95,000 in the middle, Xuan Liu bet 45,000 and Z Stein raised all in with a covering stack. Liu made the call and was at risk.

Xuan Liu: K♥K♠
Z Stein: Q♠Q♦

Liu was in bad shape with an overpair against Stein's turned set of queens, and found no improvement on the 5♦ river, resulting in her elimination while Stein collected a colossal pot.
