Triana Takes One Multiway

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Rafael Chocon opened to 900 from the cuitoff and received calls from a player on the button, Daniel Triana in the small blind and a player in the big blind.

The flop came 8?6?2? and action folded around to Chacon, who fired a 1,500 continuation bet. The button folded, Triana called and the big blind folded.

Both remaining players checked the J? turn leading to the 9? river. Triana bet 1,500 and Chacon's hand hit the muck.

Gray Puts Opponent to the Test

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With three players seeing a board of 8?6?6? and roughly 4,500 in the middle, action checked around to Matthew Gray who bet 6,000 in position. An opponent in the big blind made the call while Alexey Neofitov folded from middle position.

On the 9? turn Gray moved all in for his remaining stack of 23,600. His opponent thought for about 30 seconds before deciding to fold and Gray took down a nice pot without showdown.

Bagattini Nearly Triples Up

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Dario Bagattini
Dario Bagattini

With four players seeing a board of 10?3?3? and roughly 9,800 in the middle, Dario Bagattini checked in early position and another player checked from middle position before the hijack bet 2,700. All three opponents made the call.

On the 5? turn Bagattini moved all in for 11,200. The middle position player made the call with a covering stack while the other two players got out of the way.

Dario Bagattini: A?5?
Opponent: J?8?

Bagattini was ahead with two pair but needed to fade any eight, jack or club from his opponent to avoid elimination. The 9? river was clean and Bagattini and he scored just under a full triple up at his opponent's expense.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

A player in the cutoff opened to 1,200 and Francisco Fernandez called from the button.

Fernandez called another bet from his opponent on the 8? turn, this time for 2,800.

Both players checked the 2? river. The cutoff tabled 10?9? for a bluff while Fernandez showed down Q?8? for a pair of eights to take the pot.

Diaz Makes a Big Call

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Mauricio Diaz
Mauricio Diaz

Matthew Gray opened to 1,200 from under the gun and received calls from a player in the hijack, Mauricio Diaz in the cutoff, a player on the button and a player in the small blind.

The flop came 4?2?2? and action folded around to Diaz who bet 2,000. Gray and the small blind got out of the way while the players in the hijack and cutoff made the call.

Diaz bet again when checked to on the 9? turn, this time for 5,000. The button made the call while the hijack folded.

On the 7? river Diaz slowed down with a check and the button bet 15,000, enough to put Diaz all in. Diaz thought for about a minute before making the call to put himself at risk.

The player on the button showed K?6? for just king-high after missing the flush draw. Diaz turned over A?5? for just ace-high (while also having flopped both flush and straight draws that missed) to score a full double up.
