Chop Talk

[user38338]

Nível 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Victor Shuchleis and Michel Abecassis just found themselves entangled in a pot that had reached the river with the board showing . The showdown having arrived, Shuchleis showed and Abecassis , and as both players had aces and tens they chopped the pot.

Discussion afterward centered around the pair debating whether each had played the hand well, a question about which neither could draw a firm conclusion. Shuchleis then jerked a thumb toward Ben Tollerene sitting to his left.

"At least we have Ben here to tell us if we're playing well," he said, and Tollerene sat forward in his chair. "I have no idea what's going on," Tollerene joked.

Set Serves Negreanu

[user38338]

Nível 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Daniel Negreanu just earned a helpful boost to his chip stack while sending another player off shy of the money here in Event #41.

We picked up the action on the turn with the board showing . That's when Negreanu bet 22,000, his opponent raised to 54,000, and Negreanu called.

Negreanu had for top set while his opponent had and hopes for a diamond flush. But the river was the , and Negreanu earned the pot.

Mattila Over Brown

[user38338]

Nível 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Earlier and not long after Sammy Farha was eliminated, it was Chad Brown who eventually earned the dubious privilege of moving into Farha's vacated seat on chip leader Ville Mattila's left. So far Brown has held onto his chips, although still sits with roughly the stack which which he started Day 2.

Just now a hand arose in which a player raised to 3,700 from under the gun and both Brown and Mattila called from the blinds. The flop came , and when it checked to the raiser he bet 5,000 and Brown called. Mattila then carved out a check-raise to 31,100, forcing a quick fold from the UTG player. Brown took considerably more time to make his decision before finally folding as well.
