PartyPoker Team Pro Jaime Staples opened to 12,000 UTG. Anwar Kanj (Small Blind) and Leslie Kearney (Big Blind) both made the call.
Action was checked to Staples on the J♦3♣8♣ flop. He continued for 15,000, and both of his opponents stuck around. Checked to Staples again on the J♣ turn, who now sized up to 35,000. Within seconds, Kanj raised to 75,000. Kearney swiftly folded before Staples called the check-raise from his opponent.
Kanj conducted a visual chip count of Staples’ stack before forcing his opponent all in for 40,000 on the 5♠ river. Staples made the call instantly.
Anwar Kanj: 3♠3♥
Jaime Staples: A♣2♣
The nut flush was not good enough for Staples, and he was eliminated in nineteenth place for £300. This poker.pro live reporter had a small chat with Staples, who wasn’t too bummed. “I can play the £200 NLH Bounty and focus more on the football now.” That’s the spirit.
Jaime Staples’ brother Matt Staples is still in the field.
Anwar Kanj: 455,000
Jaime Staples: 0
