Connor Drinan got the last of his chips in good with one card to come.
It was his against Matt Berkey's on a board.
Of course, Berkey had a ton of outs, and the river was certainly one of them, making him a flush and sending Drinan to the rail much earlier than he had planned.
Stephen Chidwick raised to 7,500 from under the gun, Dan Smith called from middle position, Daniel Colman called from the cutoff, Kathy Lehne three-bet to 30,000 from the button, and Bryn Kenney four-bet shoved from the big blind for 172,000. Action folded to Lehne and she called.
Lehne:
Kenney:
The board came down , giving Kenney tens full of aces to win the pot and double through Lehne.
Stephen Chidwick made it 7,500 and Dan Smith was the only player to look him up. The flop saw Chidwick check-call 12,000 from Smith.
He also check-called 36,000 on the turn, but when the came down on the river and Chidwick checked again, Smith checked behind, turning over the . Chidwick mucked.
After his starting table broke, Timofey Kuznetsov is firmly in command at his new table, pushing everyone around at will.
First, he stomped on a Phil Hellmuth 7,000-chip button raise, making it 23,000 from the big blind. Then, after Hellmuth folded, he did the same to Justin Bonomo.
Bonomo also folded, and as Kuznetsov added the chips to his stack, he is rapidly approaching the 900,000-chip mark and in the lead.
