Hand #2: Brian Green Chops With Daniel Neilson

Level 16: 4,000 / 8,000 ante: 8,000
Brian Green

In the second hand of hand-for-hand mode, Daniel Neilson calls the button shove by Brian Green who is the player at risk for 146,000.


"I didn't look at my cards before, otherwise I would have tried to slow roll," Neilson jokes. They had already exposed the cards briefly before turning them over again.


Green's A K are up against A K and the J 2 2 7 7 board ensures a split pot.

Level 14: 2,500 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Kunal Patni won a big flip with jacks against the ace-king of Joshua McCully, who busts soon after. In the meanwhile, Konstantin Held emerges from his undercover run and nearly doubles the stack he started with so far, now sitting between Hugues Girard and Ngoc Ha Nguyen. The same table has already lost Joris Michl and Dhaval Mudgal.
