In the next hand, Yen jammed for roughly 475,000 and Brzezinski called from the small blind.

McEwan Sends Two to the Rail

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

The hand was picked up on the flop, with Alan Hamza already all in preflop in early position.

The board read 210J, and Alan Hamza, who had only 20,000 chips left in the big blind, donated them to the pot against Matthew McEwan, the small blind.

Alan Hamza: KJAll in
Shawn Stern: A10All in
Matthew McEwan: 87

McEwan had flopped a flush and held a straight flush draw. Stern had a pair of tens, but needed running cards to win. Hamza was in a similar boat with top pair.

Those boats sank with the 4 turn, which rendered the 2 river meaningless.

Steinman Scoops Three-Way All In

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Ian Steinman
Ian Steinman

Ian Steinman made it 240,000 to play from under the gun and was looked up by Rohit Mariwalla in the next seat and Max Kruse in the small blind.

Brian Felder sat in the big blind then three-bet all in for 700,000. Steinman then four-bet all in for 2,305,000 which found a five-bet all in from Mariwalla who had both all in players covered.

Action came back to Kruse who had all players covered, "Ah man, I knew it and that is why I played it like this.........I fold" and he open folded AxKx.

Brian Felder: J8 All in
Ian Steinman: KQ All in
Rohit Mariwalla: JJ

Felder was drawing almost dead and Steinman needed to hit to say alive. The dealer duly obliged for Steinman when they fanned out the flop of 6K5 to fire him into the lead. No help for Mariwalla on the 5 turn nor the 6 river and Steinman scooped the pot for a near treble-up whilst Felder was sent to the rail.

Kruse was left contemplating if he made the GTO right move as he would have sent three players to the rail.

Marius Iftimia: QJ All in
Simon Hong: 99

Iftimia flopped top pair on a board of J7510A and doubled up.

Morris Gives Again

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

One hand after giving half his stack away when he lost a hand as the preflop favorite, Arthur Morris was all in again.

This time, he shoved 1,705,000 chips over a raise to 320,000 from the cutoff and a call on the button by Ludovic Periaux on the button.

David Yue, the original raise, bailed. Periaux made the call for less.

Ludovic Periaux: 88
Arthur Morris: 55

This time Morris was the underdog and maintained the worst hand throughout as the board fell 366106 to give Periaux the bigger full house thanks to his pocket eights.

Morris lost half his stack for the second time in two hands.
