Nível 23 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

Luis Velador raised it up for Jason Daly to defend the big blind, which led them to the A♥A♠3♠ flop. Daly check-called a bet and did so again on the 2♠ turn to then check again the J♥ river. Velador bet and called a check-raise by Daly, who revealed the A♣J♣7♦4♣ for a full fouse and seven low.

"Talk about moaning it in," Johannes Becker joked. Velador exposed his A♦10♦7♠5♠ and tossed them into the muck.

Quads for Ruben

Nível 23 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

Ben Lamb raised from middle position and was called by Brad Ruben in the big blind.

Ruben check-called a bet from Lamb on a 4♣4♦4♠ flop and then checked once more over to Lamb on the 8♥ turn. Lamb put out another bet, but this time was check-raised by Ruben. After some deliberation, Lamb called.

The dealer peeled the K♥ river and Ruben bet out. After a few moments in the tank, Lamb made the sigh-call.

"Quads." Announced Rubin as he tabled K♦K♣4♥2♥ for quad fours. Lamb frustratingly tossed his cards in the muck.

Nível 23 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

James Chen chopped with Johannes Becker when both had the exact same holdings for the low and high pot.

Chen then defended the small blind versus Luis Velador and Becker also stuck around to the K♥J♥3♣ flop. It checked to Velador who bet and Chen then check-raised to force out Becker, earning a call from Velador. The 2♠ turn was bet by Chen and Velador came along to the 3♠ on the river.

This time, Chen checked and subsequently called a bet by Velador, who won the pot with the A♣K♦J♠3♦ for a full house.

Chen Carves Out Lamb

Nível 23 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

James Chen raised from early position and was called by Ben Lamb in the big blind.

Chen would control the betting action by betting all three streets on a board that read 6♥J♦Q♠3♥7♥.

Lamb would call Chen down and see the bad news as Chen would table A♣A♥Q♥7♠ for an ace-high flush.

Becker Gets Value From Quads

Nível 22 : Limits 50,000/100,000, 0 ante

Jason Daly raised and called a three-bet by Johannes Becker in the cutoff. That led them to the 10♦7♠5♦ flop on which Daly check-called a bet before doing so again on the 7♦ turn.

The 7♥ on the river brought a set on the board and Daly checked once more. Becker now bet and Daly instantly grinned.

"Ace deuce ten?" he asked but received no reply. Another minute later, Daly called and Becker tabled his A♠A♦7♣6♦ for quads.
