Holskyi Doubles Up Again

Nível 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Nicholas Seward opened the action from the cutoff with a raise to 1,200,000. David Coleman, on the button, considered joining the action with A♣5♣ but opted to fold. Konstantyn Holskyi then went all in for 1,700,000 from the small blind. Akinobu Maeda, in the big blind, asked the dealer about Seward's options if he were to call, but the floor ruled against any additional raise. Despite this, Maeda decided to fold, and Seward made the call.

Konstantyn Holskyi: A♠10♥ All in
Nicholas Seward: Q♦7♣

The board ran out favorably for Holskyi with K♥6♣2♦J♥2♣, securing another double-up for him.

Holskyi Doubles; Still Short

Nível 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Konstantyn Holskyi was forced all in for his last 1,100,000 in the big blind and David Coleman called in the small blind.

Konstantyn Holskyi: 7♠6♣ All in
David Coleman: Q♥9♦

The 8♦6♥5♣ flop was massive for Holskyi as he flopped a pair and an open-ended straight draw. The 3♥ turn and 10♣ flop meant Holsyki could stay in his seat as he pulled in the double.

Holskyi Left with One Big Blind

Nível 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Konstantyn Holskyi raised to 5,150,000 from the big blind, which happened to be exactly what Akinobu Maeda had left. Maeda took his time before deciding to call all in.

Akinobu Maeda: Q♥9♥ All in
Konstantyn Holskyi: K♣9♣

The flop 10♦A♣6♦ favored Holskyi, but the J♦ turn gave Maeda numerous outs for a potential straight. The 8♥ on the river completed Maeda's straight, leaving Holskyi with just one big blind.

Seward Rivers Two Pair

Nível 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Akinobu Maeda opened 1,200,000 in the hijack with A♦Q♣, and Nicholas Seward three-bet 2,700,000 on the button, holding A♠J♦. Maeda made the call.

The dealer spread a flop of 10♦9♣4♣ and both players checked to see the A♥ on the turn.

Maeda checked once again before Seward dropped a bet of 1,400,000, and Maeda called.

When the J♣ completed the board on the river, Maeda checked for a final time and Seward checked back to drag the pot with two pair.

Maeda Claims Pot with Rivered Top Pair

Nível 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

After David Coleman checked the stacks of the players to act after him, he decided to raise to 1,000,000 on the button with 8♠8♦. Akinobu Maeda opted to defend his big blind with K♥8♥.

Maeda check-called Coleman's 500,000 bet on the 3♦9♦3♣ flop.

The turn brought the A♥, and Maeda checked again. Coleman continued with a 750,000 bet, and Maeda called after some deliberation.

The K♦ on the river gave Maeda top pair, but he chose to check. Coleman also checked, visibly displeased with the outcome as the pot went to Maeda.

Props, Family & Fortnite: For the Four Members of Team Lucky It's About Much More Than Poker

connorrichards

Nível 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

With 14 bracelets and nearly $50 million in tournament earnings between the four of them, there's no denying that Shaun Deeb, Josh Arieh, Daniel Weinman and Matt Glantz are poker crushers. But with resumes that include a $1 million bounty pull, a body fat prop bet victory worth nearly the same amount and a win in the biggest World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event in history, it's clear the group of close friends also have luck on their sides.

The four American poker players have branded themselves as "Team Lucky" — a name that Deeb may have come up with, though they aren't certain — as a way of consciously embracing and owning their good fortunes while fighting back against the jaded cynicism all to common in the poker world.

But Team Lucky is about more than once-in-a-lifetime bounty binks and turned two-outers leading to $12 million scores. As PokerNews learned during brunch with its four members, is more about friendship, camaraderie, and shared values than a good run of cards.

Holskyi Gets There

Nível 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

David Coleman opened 1,100,000 in the small blind and Konstantyn Holskyi defended the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of A♠7♥6♣ and Coleman continued for 675,000. Holskyi moved all in for 3,000,000 and Coleman quickly called.

Konstantyn Holskyi: 10♥6♥ All in
David Coleman: 7♦5♣

Both players flopped a pair but Holskyi was in trouble with a pair of sixes. The K♥ hit the turn, giving Holskyi a flush draw and the 6♦ river improved him to trip sixes to remain in the tournament.

Another Double Up

Nível 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Konstantyn Holskyi went all in for his last 2,050,000 from the small blind after everyone folded to him. Akinobu Maeda, in the big blind, tanked for a while as he only needed around 2,000,000 to call. Eventually, he made the call.

Konstantyn Holskyi: J♠8♠ All in
Akinobu Maeda: 9♠4♣

The flop came 2♥10♠6♠, giving Holskyi a flush draw.

The 3♥ turn provided Maeda with additional outs for a potential straight.

However, the 7♦ on the river completed Holskyi's double-up.
