Wolff Fades Huge Sweat

Jacob Wilson

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Jack Maskill flatted an open shove from Zurvan Tumboli for 123,000, before George Wolff reshoved from the small blind for 510,000. After a long tank, Maskill ended up folding, with his covering stack.

George Wolff: A♦K♥ All in
Zurvan Tumboli: A♣K♠

It seemed as though the players were off to a chop, however the 4♣9♣5♥ flop brought some sweat. The 5♣ turn brought even more of a sweat, as Tumboli started calling for a club. It didn't come, as the two chopped on the A♥ river.

Peter Robinson went jammed in cutoff for 37,000 and Antonin Teisseire made a duty call in the big blind taking them to showdown.

Peter Robinson: Q♠10♥ All in
Antonin Teisseire: 9♥3♥

Already ahead, Robinson's lead got reinforced when the flop dropped Q♠5♥8♠ giving him a pair. The runout 8♥4♠ didn't take the lead away from Robinson resulting in a double up for him.

A few hands later, Teisseire found himself in an all-in situation with Wei Chen, who covered him and placed his tournament life on the line.

Antonin Teisseire: A♥7♣ All in
Wei Chen: A♦K♦

Both players had an ace but Chen had the better kicker putting him in the front. It was looking grim for Teisseire when the flop dropped 10♥8♠K♠. The turn 9♣ and river 5♣ didn't help Teisseire at all ending his tournament life instantly. He left the table as the dealer pushed the chips towards Chen's direction.

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

James Heath, Julio Novo, and Srikanth Yadlapati all got it in preflop, with two players having the equity advantage.

James Heath: A♣Q♥ All in
Julio Novo: A♥Q♦ All in
Srikanth Yadlapati: A♠J♠

It would be Heath and Novo to double up through their adversary, as they held on the 3♥K♣10♣5♥10♦ runout, and Yadlapati forked out the chips.

The board brought no surprise with 3♣7♦K♠2♣J♥ and Harnish took down the pot while Levy was left with less than two big blinds and busted a few minutes later.

Level 19 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Chris Nelson open-jammed all-in for 79,000 under the gun. Action folded to the small blind and Scott Lake bet 170,000 which was enough to make Artashes Kartalyan in the big blind fold.

Chris Nelson: A♦10♥ All in
Scott Lake: J♥J♠

The flop came 8♣5♠A♥ instantly pushing Nelson in the lead. The A♠ turn strengthened Nelson's hand with trips. Lake still had minimal outs to turn the tides but the river 5♣ double paired the board giving Nelson a full house and cementing his chip up to double.

Mario Lopez: A♠Q♥ All in
Jonathan Wolter: A♦K♠

Lopez had the dominated hand but the board revealed J♣2♠9♠5♠3♠ to give him the nut flush while Wolter was left with crumbs and busted a few minutes later.
