John Cynn Looking to Improve on 2016 Main Event Finish with 2018 Final Table

Nível 34 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
John Cynn
John Cynn

While anyone watching the Main Event coverage this year has been focused on 2009 Main Event champion Joe Cada’s repeat deep run, there’s another player who has been here before, though he didn’t make it quite to the final table… yet.

John Cynn from Indianapolis made it all the way to Day 7 in 2016, but dwindled down and busted in 11th place on the unofficial final table bubble.

His 2016 Main Event run fell short when his stack dwindled to under ten big blinds and he got it in with queen-ten, but Gordon Vayo found ace-king in the big blind to look him up and send Cynn to the rail.

The bittersweet run in the Main that year earned Cynn $650,000, his previous best score being just under $20,000 for a 59th-place finish in the 2015 Millionaire Maker.

In the two years since his 2016 Main Event run, Cynn has added $200,000 in tournament winnings to his credit and is thrilled to be back under the lights of the Thunderdome.

“I’m feeling pretty great. This is definitely another surreal experience.”

His experience this time around is a bit different, having been here before.

“I’m definitely more comfortable than before, which is nice. It could be either because it’s my second time or because I have a bigger stack.

“Both experiences were incredible, but definitely having a lot of fun this time.”

Cynn’s Main Event trajectory has seen him chip up substantially on every day of the tournament besides a stagnant Day 2, as you can see below.

John Cynn having fun in his second super deep run in the Thunderdome.

On Day 6 with blinds at 100K/200K/30K ante, Cynn was sitting with just over 4 million chips on the button and saw a very active Nirath Rean open to 450,000 under the gun before Daniel Tang flat-called. Cynn shipped with ace-jack and Rean tank re-shoved.

Once Tang folded, Cynn said, “This is really bad for me,” but was relieved to see he was flipping against pocket nines. The ace came right in the window, though the three-heart flop gave his opponent a flush draw, and Cynn told the table, “I’m very nervous right now.”

He followed up with, “I’ve never run this good in flips in tournament, anything. It’s insane how good I’m running. So I can’t complain no matter what happens.”

A clean runout followed and Cynn scored a big double up that got him going. He would end the day right in the middle of the pack with 14,750,000. By the second break on Day 7, Cynn had more than doubled what he started the day with, sitting at 32,200,000 and we asked how he got all those chips.

“By getting really lucky, I mean, this has been easily the best seven-day stretch of cards I’ve had in my whole entire life. And for that to come during the Main Event is like, unreal.”

If you ask anyone in poker, they’ll agree: that’s the dream.

Secondary Table Hands #97-101: Cynn Five-Bets Against Phan

Nível 34 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

Hand #97: Nicolas Manion opened to 950,000 and that won the blinds and antes on the secondary table in the first hand back from the dinner break.

Hand #98: Antoine Labat made it 925,000 to go from the cutoff and John Cynn called on the button, Tony Miles came along from the big blind. On the {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop, Miles checked, and Labat did so as well. Cynn bet 1,400,000, Miles called, and Labat got out of the way. After the {7-Spades} turn, both players checked and the {7-Hearts} river brought no betting action either. Cynn turned over {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and that won the pot.

Hand #99: Cynn raised from the cutoff to 900,000 and Manion defended his big blind. The flop fell {9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Manion checked, as did Cynn, to see the {2-Diamonds} on the turn. Manion made it 1,300,000 to go and Cynn sent his cards into the muck.

Hand #100: Labat raised to 1,000,000 and the Frenchman won the blinds and antes without resistance.

Hand #101: First to act, Ryan Phan raised to 900,000 and Cynn three-bet to 2,600,000 from two seats over. The action folded back to Phan and he gave it some consideration before four-betting to 7,000,000. Cynn took an equally long time before five-betting to 13,500,000, which forced a fold from Phan.

Feature Table Hands #111-113: Lynskey Over Bercovici

Nível 34 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

Hand #111: Alex Lynskey made it 850,000 under the gun and Hari Bercovici called a couple of seats over. The board read {7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} after two checks and Lynskey bet 1.6 million. Bercovici called and the river was the {j-Clubs}. Lynskey fired 3.3 million and Bercovici thought briefly before calling.

Lynskey's {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} triumphed over {k-}{q-}.

Hand #112: Action folded to the small blind where Michael Dyer completed. Lynskey checked and they saw {q-Spades}{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Dyer bet 425,000 and Lynskey called. The {3-Spades} checked through, bringing the {6-Hearts}. Check-check again and {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} of Lynskey took it down.

Nível 34 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante
Konstantin Beylin
Konstantin Beylin

Secondary Table Hand #106: John Cynn raised to 900,000 from the button. Konstantin Beylin shoved all in from the small blind for 6,500,000. Action was back on Cynn and he called.

John Cynn: {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Konstantin Beylin: {9-Spades}{7-Spades}

Cynn made the call with just queen high after giving it some thought, but he was right on the money with his read as Beylin was just holding nine high. The flop came down {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} offering only a few extra backdoor outs to Beylin. The {J-Clubs} on the turn changed nothing either. It was the {K-Hearts} on the river and that would seal the deal. Cynn held up with his queen high and that would earn him the pot.

For his 14th-place finish, Beylin will collect $475,000.

Joe Cada

Hand #115: Michael Dyer opened to 800,000 in the cutoff and Alex Lynskey flat-called on the button. Hari Bercovici also called from the small blind and Yueqi Zhu three-bet to 4,800,000 from the big blind. Both Dyer and Lynskey quickly folded while Bercovici took over a minute before letting his hand go.

Hand #116: The action folded to Yueqi Zhu in the small blind who shipped all in, putting Frederik Brink to the test for his remaining 7,075,000 chips. After looking at his cards, Brink sent them to the muck, sending the pot to Zhu.

Hand #117: Dyer raised to 800,000 from middle position and Hari Bercovici called from the hijack. Tony Miles also called from the big blind and the dealer spread a flop of {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Miles checked to Dyer who continued for 1,125,000. Bercovici shoved all in for 2,275,000 and both Miles and Dyer laid their hands down.

Hand #118: Miles limped in from the small blind and Joe Cada checked his option. The flop came {9-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Miles checked to Cada who bet 600,000. Miles called and the {k-Clubs} hit the turn. Miles checked again and Cada fired another 1,600,000. Miles stuck around to see the {4-Clubs} complete the board.

Miles checked for the third time and Cada checked behind, tabling {5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for the smallest flush possible. It was still good enough to earn him the pot as Miles sent his cards to the muck.

Feature Table Hand #119: Hari Bercovici called second to act and Michael Dyer made it 1,950,000 from the big blind. Bercovici jammed for 6,250,000 and Dyer called with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}. Bercovici was racing with {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

The {8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop paired Dyer. The {6-Diamonds} was a blank on the turn, leaving Bercovici in need of one of the last two fours. The {8-Spades} hit though, sending Bercovici to the rail.
