Cary Katz Strikes Two Pair on the River
From the cutoff, Jason Koon raised to 2,500 and both Cary Katz and Fedor Holz called in the blinds.
The flop landed [6d][7s][jc] and action checked to Koon who continued for 3,500. Both Katz and Holz called as the [4c] fell on the turn.
Katz checked, Holz bet out 7,500, and Koon mucked. Katz came along and called as both players checked the [8s] on the river.
Katz tabled his [8c][6c] for two pair, and Holz mucked.
Talal Shakerchi Doubles Through Steffen Sontheimer
Talal Shakerchi raised to 2,500 from under the gun and Rick Salomon three-bet to 10,000 from middle position. Steffen Sontheimer four-bet to 25,000 on the button before Shakerchi went all in. Salomon folded and Sontheimer called.
It was a classic race between Shakerchi’s [ah][kd] against Sontheimer’s [qc][qd].
The board ran out [kh][jc][8d][7s][6c] and Shakerchi paired his king on the flop to double up. He was already in for all three add-ons and forced Sontheimer to use his first.
Igor Kurganov Takes from Sean Winter
Igor Kurganov raised under the gun to 2,500 and Sean Winter called in the big blind.
The flop landed [2d][4s][5c] and Winter checked to Kurganov who continued for 2,500. Winter responded with a check-raise to 8,000, and Kurganov called.
The turn fell the [qd] and Winter led out for 16,000. Kurganov raised to 38,000, and Winter mucked.
Dan Smith and Mikita Badziakouski Find a Chop
Dominik Nitsche opened to 2,500 from under the gun, and Dan Smith called next to act. Mikita Badziakouski and Brian Rast called in the blinds, and the dealer spread a [qs][4s][9d] flop.
Action checked to Smith who bet out 3,500 and Badziakouski was the only caller as both players checked the [2s] on the turn.
The river landed the [3h] and Badziakouski bet out 12,000. Smith called, and then tabled his [kd][qd] to chop with Badziakouski’s [kc][qh].
Seth Davies Pips Sean Winter
Sean Winter raised on the button and Seth Davies called out of the big blind. The flop was [9s][6h][4h] and Davies checked. Winter bet 2,500 and Davies check-raised to 7,500. Winter quickly called.
They both checked the [9h] turn and the [3c] came on the river. Davies bet 7,000 and Winter called. Winter showed [7c][7s] and Davies mucked his hand.
“You pipped me, man,” said Winter as Davies collected the pot.
Dominik Nitsche Eliminated by Ali Imsirovic
Ali Imsirovic opened to 2,500 in the cutoff and Mikita Badziakouski called on the button, as did Dominik Nitsche in the big blind.
The flop landed [8h][8c][3h] and action checked through to reveal the [qd] on the turn.
Nitsche led out for 10,000 and Imsirovic called as Badziakouski folded.
The river fell the [ac] and Nitsche bet 35,000. Imsirovic started to deliberate, and then eventually tossed in a 60-second time bank.
With his time about to expire, Imsirovic announced he was all in for 78,500 and Nitsche didn’t take too long before calling.
Imsirovic tabled his [3c][3d] for a flopped full house, and Nitsche tabled his [8d][5d] and immediately asked for a 100,000-chip add on.
Rick Salomon Completes SHRB V Field
The players are in their seats and what was originally a 35-player field is now a 36-player field with the last-minute addition of Rick Salomon. Salomon, a former actor and producer, is but is now a regular in the high-roller fields. He’s earned just shy of $10 million in live tournaments, almost exclusively in the game’s biggest buy-ins.
Last July, he finished fourth in the $1 million Big One for One Drop at the World Series of Poker, cashing for $2,840,000. He is seated in between Justin Bonomo and Steffen Sontheimer, while at the same table as Daniel Negreanu. Cards are about to get in the air and the live stream will start within the first few levels of the day.
