Aces Versus Kings in the Never Ending Hand

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Vogelsang vs Kaverman
Vogelsang vs Kaverman

As Level 4 wound down, a big hand took place between online star Christoph "Tight-Man1" Vogelsang and GPI Player of the Year Byron Kaverman, one that lasted an awful long time.

It began when Vogelsang raised to 5,200 from the hijack and Kaverman took his time before three-betting to 13,500 from the cutoff. The button and both blinds all folded, Vogelsang thought for nearly two minutes before four-betting to 38,500, and Kaverman thought for an equal amount of time before making the call.

The {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop saw Vogelsang think for awhile before betting 28,000, and Kaverman tank-called. The time taken for each decision would continue to increase on subsequent streets. For instance, both players checked the {8-Hearts} turn, but not before taking 90 seconds to do so.

When the {3-Diamonds} completed the board on the river, Vogelsang waited nearly two minutes before checking, and Kaverman waited the same before betting 107,000. Vogelsang then paused for a minute or two before stacking all but one of his chips — a single T100 chip capping his cards — and slid them in for an all-in check-raise to 130,400.

The dealer then instructed him to put in the remaining 100, which brought the total up to 130,500. Kaverman thought for a minute before making the call, and Vogelsang tabled the {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}. Kaverman shook his head and showed the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} before watching the pot pushed to his opponent.

Perkins Back in the Danger Zone

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Bill Perkins raised from the cutoff — how much we're not sure — and then called when Daniel Dvoress three-bet to 21,000 from the big blind. Both players checked the {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{k-Hearts} flop as well as the {5-Diamonds} turn, and then Dvoress moved all in on the {8-Hearts} river. Perkins, who only had 68,000 behind, quickly folded.

Kanit vs. Bonomo

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

With around 75,000 in the pot and a board reading {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{k-Clubs}, Mustapha Kanit bet 31,000 from the small blind and Justin Bonomo called from the button. Both players checked the {Q-Hearts} river and Kanit showed ace high with the {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. Bonomo then revealed the {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a pair of tens and the win.

Katz Enters, Loses Pot to Alvarado

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Cary Katz recently entered the tournament and got right into action. On the {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{10-Spades} flop, Katz checked, and Alvarado bet 5,200. Katz check-raised to 11,200, and Alvarado made the call.

The turn {2-Clubs} and river {5-Hearts} were both checked by Katz and Alvarado to get to the showdown. That's where Katz tabled the {A-Spades}{8-Clubs} for top pair, but he lost to Alvarado's {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for two pair.

Perkins Doubles Through Haxton

Bill Perkins had been knocked down to a short stack again, after having had to reload once already, but just now he found himself a double up.

Isaac Haxton and Perkins found themselves heads up on a {3-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop. Haxton put Perkins all in for 51,200 and he made the call.

Perkins: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Haxton: {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Hearts}, {6-Hearts} and Perkins doubled up.

Kaverman Not Looking to Repeat as GPI King

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Byron Kaverman
Byron Kaverman

Career years are, by definition, outliers, usually born of a convergence of good fortune and peaking abilities.

If 2015 was Byron Kaverman's career year, it was an impressive one indeed, as he put up $3.4 million in cashes, more than double his previous best year, 2014. Furthermore, Kaverman accumulated enough results to top the Global Poker Index rankings and take home GPI Player of the Year. He edged out fellow Americans Anthony Zinno, Steve O'Dwyer, and Nick Petrangelo for the honors.

"It was a pretty rewarding feeling," Kaverman said. "It was fun competing with guys like Anthony and Steve. We all wanted to win, and they had tremendous years as well. They probably did better than I did, money-wise. We were all friendly about it, and it made for a cool competition."

Though being at the summit of the profession is on the mind of any top tournament player, Kaverman said one tour stop in particular changed the course of his year and really set him on a mission. At European Poker Tour Barcelona in late August, Kaverman put together a string of cashes with ninth in the €50,000 Super High Roller for €123,600, seventh in a €5,200 Hyper Turbo side event for €23,680, and 38th in the €10,300 High Roller for €24,600.

Those cashes pushed Kaverman to third in the GPI rankings after a summer that saw him claim his first World Series of Poker gold bracelet and more than $650,000 in prize money for winning the prestigious $10,000 Six-Max Championship. At that point, he decided to go for it.

"I only planned on playing Barcelona and Vegas stuff this fall," he said. "I made [GPI Player of the Year] a goal after Barcelona to really go for it. I put a lot of time and effort into traveling and playing a lot of tournaments that would qualify. To be fortunate enough to get there was a good feeling."

Still, the grind took a bit of a toll on Kaverman, as it involved constant travel as he pushed himself to accumulate as many points as possible. He was rewarded when he shipped the €10,300 High Roller at EPT Malta for $430,800, and he hung on to the top spot despite O'Dwyer taking down the €50,000 High Roller at EPT Prague.

"I went from Vegas to Prague to Florida and back to Vegas," Kaverman said of his journeys. "I wouldn't say burned out, but I was definitely pretty tired when it came to mid-December. It's definitely not something I'm going to be going for this year."

Kaverman is nonetheless off to a good start in 2016 as he has increased his starting stack of 250,000 to about 320,000 at first break of the $100,000 Super High Roller at PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. He has done so despite grinding at a six-handed table against the likes of Jason Koon, Christoph Vogelsang, Stephen Chidwick, Dani Stern, and Anton Astapau.

"I got here a little late, but I'm excited for this one," Kaverman said of his first big tournament of 2016. "Everyone [at my table] is very good, but we're having a good time chatting it up."

Perky Takes Esfandiari for $1,000

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Antonio Esfandiari
Antonio Esfandiari

"Perky, let's auction for $1,000 on how long she gets here with the food," Antonio Esfandiari yelled over to the table behind him where Bill Perkins was seated.

Perkins and Esfandiari had ordered food together and it was supposed to be on the way, so Esfandiari wanted to bet $1,000 on the time in which the food would arrive. He first asked Perkins, who had ordered the food, what sort of knowledge he had that would give him an advantage. Perkins showed Esfandiari his phone with the string of text messages about the delivery to make things fair for everyone.

Esfandiari started the bidding at two minutes. Perkins quickly bumped that up to seven minutes, and Esfandiari immediately bought.

"Buy," he said emphatically.

"You're taking the under?" asked Perkins.

"Yes," responded Esfandiari.

The time was 3:32 p.m. and Esfandiari needed the food to arrive within the next seven minutes to win. But with one minute to go, he began to really get worried about his chances, and they certainly did not look good.

"Perky, can I buy out?" Esfandiari asked.

"I think I'll let you save a dollar," responded Perkins.

"A dollar!" Esfandiari yelled. "You see what he does to me? How he tortures me? A dollar! She said she got the shakes and that she was on her way. How long does it take?"

"I'm on my second bullet, but at least I can brag about how it only cost me $99,000 instead of $100,000," laughed Perkins.

The food did not show up within the seven-minute window, and Perkins won the $1,000 from Esfandiari.

Schwartz Busy Bogarting the Chips

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

After winning a large pot off Isaac Baron (one that we unfortunately missed), Noah Schwartz won another big one off Nick Petrangelo.

We picked up the action on an {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop when Connor Drinan checked from the big blind and Petrangelo bet 9,000 from the under-the-gun position. Schwartz quickly called from the cutoff, Drinan folded, and the {K-Spades} appeared on the turn, which saw Petrangelo bet 24,000.

"You want me to call?" Schwartz asked. Petrangelo indicated that he did indeed, and Schwartz obliged by tossing in the chips.

The {10-Spades} turn saw Petrangelo slow down with a check, and Schwartz immediately told the dealer, "I'm gonna wager 61,000."

Petrangelo gave it some thought but ultimately released, which promoted Schwartz to show the {10-Diamonds}. Petrangelo asked what the other card was, Schwartz told him a ten, and Petrangelo bemoaned the fold as he claimed to have folded the same hand.

Kanit Busts Out a Little DJ Casper After Beating Holz

Nível 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Fedor Holz bet 12,500 on the {K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, and Mustapha Kanit made the call to see the {A-Hearts} land on the turn. Holz bet 14,500, and Kanit called again.

The river was the {7-Spades}, and Holz fired 36,500. Kanit called.

Holz tabled the {J-Spades}{10-Spades} for jack high, and it was Kanit's {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts} for top pair of aces that won the pot.

As Kanit was being pushed the pot, he yelled out "Everybody clap your hands!" from the DJ Casper song the Cha Cha Slide. After he did, Scott Seiver joined him in rapidly clapping their hands together.
