Chris Hunichen raised to 65,000 and Sam Greenwood three-bet from the button to 180,000. After thinking a couple of minutes, Hunichen put in 390,000. Greenwood called. The flop came {6-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, and Hunichen bet 175,000 after getting a count of Greenwood's stack. The Canadian again called. On the {3-Spades} turn, Hunichen slowed down with a check. Greenwood bet 200,000 and got a quick call. Both checked the {j-Hearts}, and Hunichen rolled over {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Greenwood had outflopped him with {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, though.

Trips Threes for Sam Greenwood

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Francois Billard opened for 80,000 from the cutoff and Steve O'Dwyer called from the button. Sam Greenwood came along from the big blind and three players took a flop of {10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

Greenwood checked, Billard continued for 120,000, and both his opponents called. All three players proceeded to check both the {6-Clubs} turn and {K-Spades} river.

Greenwood rolled over the {a-Spades}{3-Spades} and it was good as both O'Dwyer and Billard mucked.

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Francois Billard
Francois Billard

Francois Billard opened for 65,000 and got action from both blinds. The flop came {5-Spades}{q-Spades}{6-Hearts}, and everyone checked. Chris Hunichen bet 70,000 on the {4-Spades} turn and Billard was the only caller. Hunichen bet bigger with 210,000 on the {9-Clubs} river, and Billard flipped in a quick call.

Hunichen shook his head and showed {10-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a whiffed straight draw, but he didn't have an out in the deck as Billard held {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a straight.

When the {2-Spades} completed the board on the river, Billard checked and then folded to a bet of 160,000 from O'Dwyer.

"Alright, Fair Fight"

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Chris Hunichen
Chris Hunichen

Chris Hunichen raised to 55,000 under the gun and Francois Billard pushed back by making it 183,000 to go from the small blind.

Hunichen responded by moving all in for 823,000 total and Billard snap-called.

"Alright, fair fight," Hunichen said upon discovering it was a race.

Hunichen: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Billard: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Spades} flop didn't hit Hunichen directly, but it did give him a spade flush draw. While no spade would come on the turn, the {Q-Hearts} was just as good as Hunichen took the lead with a pair of ladies. The {2-Clubs} river was a blank and the man they call "Big Huni" doubled up.

Greenwood Ships on O'Dwyer

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 60,000 on the button, and Sam Greenwood defended his big blind. Greenwood checked the {8-Hearts}{j-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, and O'Dwyer bet 76,000. Greenwood fired in a check-raise to 226,000, and O'Dwyer called. On the {7-Hearts} turn, Greenwood seemed to count out his stack before opting to move all in. It appeared to be around 860,000, and O'Dwyer folded after some thought.

Francois Billard Takes From Sam Greenwood

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Sam Greenwood limped the small blind and then called when Francois Billard exercised his option from the big with a raise to 85,000.

When the flop came down {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, Greenwood check-called a bet of 68,000 before both players checked the {J-Hearts} turn.

Greenwood checked for a third-time on the {A-Diamonds} river but still snap-called when Billard bet 176,000. Billard showed the {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and it was good as Greenwood mucked.
