Jason Stockfish raised to 360,000 from the small blind, Igor Sharaskin made a pot-sized three-bet from the big blind, and Stockfish called for the remainder of his stack.
Stockfish:
Sharaskin:
Sharaskin had the preflop advantage and Stockfish needed help from the deck in order to preserve his tournament life. The flop gave him a commanding lead with an eight-high straight, and although Sharaskin picked up a flush draw on the turn, the river kept Stockfish's hand best and he doubled up.
No big pots since their return from break and before the level goes up.
Igor Sharaskin has been the most active player but Marek Ohnisko has position on him and will not let him run all over the table. A few small pots swapped back and forth with no real impact on the dynamics so far and Scott Davies is mostly remaining patient.
Tyler Smith raised to 250,000 from early position, Jessie Bryant made a pot-sized reraise, Smith moved all in, and Bryant quickly called.
Smith:
Bryant:
Bryant had the preflop advantage with his aces, but Smith took a huge lead on the flop. The turn gave Smith a full boat and left Bryant drawing to the case ace with one card to come. The river was not the card Bryant was looking for and Smith took the pot, leaving Bryant with just 30,000 chips remaining.
Igor Sharaskin raised to 180,000 from the hijack, John Dallaire three-bet the pot to 660,000, Sharaskin repotted to put Dallaire to a decision for the remainder of his stack, and he called to put himself at risk.
Sharaskin:
Dallaire:
Sharaskin had the preflop advantage and Dallaire needed help from the deck in order to double up. However, the board ran out , which wasn't what he was looking for, and his deep run in his very first PLO tournament has now come to a close.
