Gao Takes Early Pot

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

No Limit Hold'em

With the board showing Q?3?3?7? at the turn and with 260,000 chips in the middle, David Greenberg bet 100,000 from under the gun, which was called by Hejia Gao in the hijack.

The 6? completed the board and brought in the club flush draw. Gao bet 100,000 which gained a fold from Greenberg. A tablemate asked, "show a monster!" which Gao obliged tabling 7?7? for a full house.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

PokerNews arrived at the table as Zachary Vankeuren moved all in from the big blind for 280,000. Cody Dutton in the small blind eventually made the call.

An early small blind/big blind setup secured Vankeuren the double up as the completed board of A?J?2?5?Q? provided no help for Dutton.
