Gonzalez Wins Cooler to Move Stack Over a Million

Nível 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jose Gonzalez opened the cutoff to 12,000 before Benjamin Tessier defended his big blind and they were off to a flop heads up.

The A♣3♥10♦ flop hit the felt and action checked to Gonzalez who continued for 8,000. Without thinking for too long Tessier put in a flop check-raise to 23,000. Gonzalez called.

The 2♦ landed on the turn introducing a backdoor flush draw and Tessier opted to continue the story for 54,000. Gonzalez came with a call once again.

The 5♦ landed on the river completing the backdoor flush and Tessier didn't skip a beat and led again for a large bet of 150,000. Gonzalez went into the tank and after a full time bank he announced he was all in. Although Tessier didn't look excited about it, he flicked in a call for his tournament life. The cards were tabled and the cooler was real.

Gonzalez rolled over A♦Q♦ for the rivered backdoor nut flush and Tessier tabled 4♦6♠ for the rivered nut straight with the flush blocker.

Tessier hit the rail and Gonzalez dragged a massive pot to move over the one million chip mark for the first time today.

Ilia Pavlov raised to 13,000 in the cutoff and Dario Sammartino defended his big blind.

Sammartino again called to the 8♠ river and checked over to Pavlov, who this time checked back and mucked when Sammartino turned over 7♣7♠ to win the pot.

At the same time at another table, Amir Hatefi moved all in for his last 100,000 on a J♠6♦8♣ flop from the hijack and Harald Sammer called on the button.

Nível 17 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Jose Gonzalez's table just witnessed another all-in confrontation, and this time it was between Shuang Luo and Joe Mouawad.

The two opponents went to the 5♣5♦10♣ flop where Mouawad got his last 54,000 in the middle from the big blind as Luo had him at risk from early position.

Joe Mouawad: J♣10♠
Shuang Luo: A♦K♥

Mouawad was ahead with two pair heading to the J♠ turn, which improved him to a higher two pair. The river, though, was the Q♣ and Luo made a straight to send Mouawad to the rail.

"Sorry," she told him. Gonzalez then got up from his seat to shake Mouwad's hand.

"It was nice playing with you," he told Mouawad.

"You too. Good luck," Mouawad said, waving goodbye to his now-former tablemates before heading off to collect his payout.
