Gaelle Baumann opened to 80,000 from late position. Josh Neufeld three-bet the rest of his stack for 600,000 from the cutoff and the rest of the table folded back to Baumann. She sat thinking for about two minutes before calling and showing {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts} . Neufeld tabled {5-} {5-} and the two were racing.

Neufeld was safe on the flop of {K-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {10-Clubs} , but Baumann paired up on the {9-Spades} turn. Fifth street was the {7-Clubs} and Neufeld was sent to the rail.

Gonzalez Takes from Volpe

[user38338]

We came on a hand between Paul Volpe and Fabrizio Gonzalez with the board showing {J-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {8-Clubs} and the action on Volpe. After some thought Volpe checked, and Gonzalez fired a bet of 330,000, which Volpe called.

The river brought the {Q-Spades} and another check from Volpe. This time Gonzalez went deep into the tank, after after some time announced he was shoving all in for 1.855 million. Volpe then took a long time before acting, finally letting his hand go.

Zulkowitz Doubles Through Martinezalonso

Amit Zulkowitz moved all in preflop for his last 1,130,000 and was called by Jordi Martinezalonso.

Zulkowitz: {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds}
Martinezalonso: {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}

Zulkowitz was able to flop a full house when the dealer showed the two {6-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {6-Spades} . Zulkowitz improved his boat when the {9-Clubs} fell on the turn. The {8-Diamonds} completed the board and Zulkowitz was able to double up, boosting his stack to roughly 2,300,000 in chips.

Somerville Cracks Tens with Nines to Double Through Buchman

Eric Buchman moved all in for 1.6 million and cleared the field all the way around to Jason Somerville on the button. He called off for 570,000, the blinds got out of the way, and the cards were turned up:

Showdown
Somerville: {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}
Buchman: {10-Spades} {10-Clubs}

Somerville was dominated and his Main Event hopes were bleak. Luckily for him, the {3-Clubs} {9-Spades} {5-Hearts} flop delivered him a set and renewed life. Neither the {8-Hearts} turn nor {2-Clubs} river helped Buchman, and Somerville scored a double.

Coultas Chips Up

[user38338]

With a large pot having already developed and {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {2-Hearts} on the board, Robert Pyne checked, Charles Coultas checked behind, then Robert Salaburu bet 600,000. Pyne stepped aside, but Coultas called.

The river brought the {Q-Diamonds} and a bet of 1.375 million from Coultas, at the sight of which Salaburu snap-folded. Coultas chips up close to the top of the leaderboard with that one while Salaburu slips out of the top spot.

Makhija Wins Monster, Takes Chip Lead

[user101598]

Jordan Batt opened to 125,000 from early position, Amit Makhija called in the cutoff, and A.J. Jejelowo three-bet to 425,000 from the big blind. Batt folded, and Makhija examined Jejelowo's stack before calling.

The flop fell {9-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {3-Clubs} , and Jejelowo led for 600,000. Makhija cut out enough green T25,000 chips to call, riffled them, then slid them forward.

The turn was the {9-Spades} , and Jejelowo slowed down, checking to Makhija. Makhija reached for chips, and slid out 500,000. Within thirty seconds, Jejelowo moved all in for effectively 2.045 million, and Makhija looked at his cards one more time before calling.

Makhija: {k-Clubs} {k-Diamonds}
Jejelowo: {a-Clubs} {7-Spades}

"Does he have a flush draw?" Michael Shelton shouted from the rail.

Jejelowo didn't have a flush draw - he was only drawing to the three remaining aces in the deck. The river was not an ace, it was the {7-Clubs} , doubling Makhija to 6.265 million chips, and giving him the chip lead.

Jejelowo is knocked all the way down to 750,000.

"That was a big one," Makhija said to the cameras after the hand.

Andrew Dean Elimated in 78th Place ($88,070)

[user101598]

Jacob Balsiger opened to 100,000 from the cutoff, Jean Malherbe three-bet to 230,000 on the button, and Andrew Dean moved all in for 1.11 million from the big blind. Balsiger folded, and Malherbe made the call.

Malherbe
Dean

The {6-Spades} {7-Hearts} {9-Hearts} flop gave Malherbe a gut-shot straight draw, and the {9-Diamonds} on the turn gave him six more outs to counterfeit Dean's under pair. The {7-Clubs} spiked on the river, giving Malherbe nines and sevens with an ace, and eliminating Dean from the tournament.

Nicolau Villa Lobos Eliminated in 77th Place ($88,070)

[user38338]

Nicolau Villa Lobos just committed his stack of about 700,000 before the flop with {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} , but had run into the {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} of Richard Pyne. The board came {7-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {J-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {10-Spades} , and Lobos is out.

Shortly after that hand, Pyne was involved in another preflop all-in situation with a shorter-stacked player, this time Marty Zabib. In that one Zabib was all in for 770,000 with {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} against Pyne's {A-Clubs} {K-Spades} , and when the board rolled out {Q-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {7-Hearts} , Zabib survived.
