Lie Takes it Down

Nível 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action was picked up on the river, which completed the board. There was about 1,100,000 already in the pot. Konstantinos Tsikopoulos fired for 425,000 before Aylar Lie moved all in for 1,410,000.

Tsikopoulos went into the tank for several minutes, albeit not without warning. "Sorry guys, this is gonna take a minute," he told the table after Lie's shove. Tsikopoulos was in visible shock at the jam, seeming to be perplexed as to what his right move would be.

"You said I have your number, she has mine," he said to Sarah Wasch, sitting to his right.

"At least you're human," she responded.

Tsikopoulos was not doing a particularly good job of covering his hole cards, and the player to his left conspicuously leaned over and saw them. Another player across the table, Jordan Winn, pointed this out to Tsikopoulos, who was unaffected by this information.

A minute or two later, Winn called the clock on Tsikopoulos, to which he told him it was not necessary, and he made the laydown, tossing his cards into the muck. Winn asked the player who had seen Tsikopoulos' hole cards to share what they were. He remained quiet. The floor had just arrived following the call for the clock, and Winn and the table explained the situation to the floor person, who said that since one player saw them, the information must be shared with the table. Tsikopoulos obliged without objection, stating that he folded a straight, having held .

"That's sick if you made that bluff," Tsikopoulos told Lie, who said nothing, but sat that with a big smile on her face.

Several minutes later, the table was still discussing the hand, with Jeremy Ausmus remarking that it had to have been at least 10 minutes in its totality.

Winn Hits Running Broadway

Nível 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Nidal Echaust:
Jordan Winn:

Echaust was eliminated, and Winn just about tripled his stack.

After the hand, another player at the table asked, "Anyone know what his equity was on that flop?"

Another player was quick to pull out his phone to find the answer. "6% chance to win on that flop. Even less than the five-seven. He had 8.5% equity."

"I would have taken the under on 6%" the original asker responded.

Palivoda with Massive Stack After Three Way All-In

Nível 20 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

The details of this hand were provided to PokerNews after the fact by players at the table.

After some betting, only three players stayed in the hand to see the flop, including Mike Palivoda. The flop put an eight and a ten on the board, and two hearts. One player moved all in for around 600,000, and the next rejammed for around 1,100,000. Palivoda made the call with both covered.

Opponent 1:
Opponent 2:
Mike Palivoda:

Palivoda was behind to both opponents, who had both flopped a set, but had outs with his over pair, and the backdoor nut flush draw. It was that draw that brought him the big pay day, as he hit runner-runner hearts to complete his flush and make the best hand.

Palivoda scooped the massive pot, and scored the double knockout at the same time. His stack is now as big, if not bigger, than anyone else's in the room. It took him the next few hands just to get his chips all stacked neatly.

Vincent Russell:
Opponent 1:
Big blind:

Russell was ahead, but that changed quickly when the flop gave both of his opponents top pair. The turn was of no help to Russell, who was drawing to a two outer to make a set of nines in order to stay alive in the tournament. He managed to hit a miracle on the river, giving him a set and the best hand. He raked in the pot, tripling his stack.

Another player at the table claimed to have folded the , although others around the table said they were uncertain if they should believe him. If true, Russell was drawing even thinner than previously thought.
