Galfond and Hennigan Fold, Brummelhuis Amongst Leaders

[user80015]

Following a raise to 3,000, John Hennigan, Michiel Brummelhuis and a third player made the call before Phil Galfond three-bet to 12,600 from the small blind. Only Hennigan and Brummelhuis made the call as the flop landed and Galfond slid out a 17,000 chip bet.

Hennigan took his time before making the call as Brummelhuis also came along before the dealer dropped the on the turn. Galfond eyed both of his opponents' stacks before cutting out a bet of 42,000 which was called by Hennigan before Brummelhuis pushed his chips into the pot amounting to an all in of 118,7000.

Galfond didn't take too long to decide upon a fold, but Hennigan was a different story as he went deep into the tank for close to four minutes before eventually releasing his hand to see Brummelhuis collect the pot to move to roughly 297,000 in chips.

Hard To Get Value From Sorel

[user217945]

Action began with a raise to 2,400 from under the gun. Only one player called the raise before Sorel Mizzi three-bet to 7,000 on the button. Both blinds folded back to the player under the gun. He four-bet to 22,400. The player who originally called folded, but Mizzi tagged along.

The flop came down and the player under the gun checked. Mizzi put out a bet of 15,200. With action back on the under the gun player he tanked for about a minute before announcing that he was all in for 92,800 total. Mizzi went into the tank. It would've cost him just about his entire stack to make the call. After a few minutes in the tank, Mizzi finally folded his hand telling his opponent that he had a big hand.

"It's very hard to get value from you," the player asked. "How big was it?"

"Ace queen," Mizzi said.

"I had ace king," the player said. "One hundred dollars and I'll show."

Everyone declined so the player just mucked his hand. Mizzi mumbled something under his breath about not believing the player. Either way, after that hand Mizzi dropped just under 100,000 chips.

Matusow Folding To Raises

[user153906]

Mike Matusow has folded to a raise or reraise in the last two pots he entered, not ideal when sitting below a 30-big blind stack.

The first hand Matusow led out for 5,100 on a flop and his opponent raised to 10,200. Matusow folded and his opponent took the pot.

The second hand found Matusow raise to 3,000 preflop. His raise was followed by a reraise to 6,800 and another caller came in behind. When action returned to Matusow, he again folded.

While sitting on a short stack, Matusow is playing patient and maintaining his composure. Don't count him out just yet.
