With quite a lot of chips already in the middle we picked up the action in three-way pot with Brian Hastings, Stephen Chidwick and Brian Hastings.
On fifth street it was Chidwick who bet and both Corkins and Hastings called. Sixth street gave Hastings the lowest board and all three players decided to check.
On seventh street Hastings checked, Chidwick bet and Corkins raised. Hastings immediately folded and Chidwick tanked for a bit before putting in the call.
"Six," Corkins announced and he swiftly turned over . Chidwick mucked his cards and Corkins picked up this big pot.
Mike Gorodinsky completed and Andre Akkari raised. Gorodinsky called and then check-raised fourth street before Akkari was all in for his last 8,800. The dealer ran out the cards and each player's board read as follows:
Gorodinsky: / /
Akkari: / /
With Gorodinsky making a full house, Akkari double through with his eight-seven low.
Over on Table 353, Mike Gorodinsky turned his chair around to get a massage and that made Nick Schulman think of a great Phil Ivey story.
"A few years ago, I was getting a massage at the table but I had no cash on me, so I asked Ivey if he could pay the lady for me," Schulman said. "So when the massage was over, he gives the lady a thousand bucks," to which the the entire table bursted out in laughter because it was just a 90-minute massage, according to Schulman.
"Ivey said, 'We're at a thousand now,'" citing than Schulman now owed Ivey $1,000, and the laughter continued.
"Now that's a great move," Brandon Cantu added with a laugh. "That's one of the funniest things I've ever heard."
"That for sure was a pro move," Schulman replied with a smile.
