Batavia Busts Goff

Nível 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Manoj Batavia is sitting on a very healthy stack almost four times that of starting stack. The lastest chips came via Dustin Goff in a hand recently. Batavia had the best of it when the chips went in the middle and Goff had to hit the rail. With unlimited re-entries it may not be the last we've seen of him though.

Dicegle in Three-Handed All In

Nível 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

There was a button open to 1,600 and Pasqale Dicegle three-bet all in in the small blind. The big blind announced their all for 11,600 and after the button confirmed how much it was for, he announced his all in too.

Big blind:
Button:
Pasqale Dicegle:

The board came and the shortest stack got a triple with a set of queens. The player in the button won the 13,000 side pot and Dicegle still has 42,000 after that clash.

Ronan Eliminated by Goff

Nível 7 : 300/600, 600 ante

Patrick Ronan was down to 4,200 chips and he moved all in. Goff flat-called on his direct left and no one else fancied getting involved.

Dustin Goff:
Patrick Ronan:

Ronan was the player who needed to hit but he couldn't find help on the runout and he headed towards the door as Goff collected the pot.

Romero Flops Big

Nível 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

James Romero is in the mix and he has chipped up from where he started. It was through a hand that took place in the last level and he was kind enough to recount how the pot played out. Mahesh Rathi opened to 800 under the gun and Romero three-bet to 3,200 in the small blind, which Rathi called.

The flop saw a 5,000 continuation from Romero and Rathi moved all in for 23,000, which Romero quickly called.

James Romero:
Mahesh Rathi:

Romero had flopped broadway and Rathi needed something really special to win the hand. It was all over on the turn and the river was irrelevant.

Goff Gets Four-Bet

Nível 6 : 300/500, 500 ante

Dustin Goff was sat on the button, facing a 1,200 raise from a player in middle position. He raised it up to 4,200 and with everyone else out of the way, the action came back to his opponent who four-bet to 12,000. Goff asked how much he had left and he showed 22,000 behind. Goff threw his cards away and his opponent showed two queens in the hole. "Not in good shape" said Doff of his hand.
