Villa Scores Massive Double Against Marchington

Nível 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Alexander Villa already had 300,000 across the line on the button and was faced with another raise of 750,000 from Nick Marchington. After a long tank, Villa moved all-in for 2,725,000 and Marchington snap-called.

Alexander Villa: Q♠Q♥
Nick Marchington: 10♠10♣

The 9♣8♣3♣ flop was quite the sweat for Villa as Marchington picked up a flush draw to go with his pair of tens. The 4♦ turn and 9♦ river were no improvement though, sending the pot to Villa.

Hoover Catches a Miracle

Nível 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Fortunes can change with the turn of a card in the Main Event, and that's exactly what just happened to Logan Hoover.

Hoover was all in for 2,385,000 from early position and up against Aditya Systla in middle position.

Logan Hoover: A♣K♦
Aditya Systla: Q♣Q♥

"Hold up," Hoover cried out as he stood up from his seat to await the flop. He hit the K♥, but the rest of the flop came Q♠7♣ and Systla made a set as Hoover turned away in disgust.

The turn, though, gave him some hope as it came K♣. "Ace one time," he yelled out. He didn't hit an ace, but the dealer did turn over the K♠ as Hoover made running quads.

"Yes," Hoover yelled as he ran away from the table. A big crowd gathered around the table and took photos of the board as Hoover returned to rake in the pot.

"Excuse me, I just made quads in the Main Event," Hoover said.

"That's the sickest thing I've ever seen," a tablemate told him.

Nível 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 5♥4♣9♦, Gustavo Masteloto moved his last 1,800,000 into the middle and was up against Liran Betito on the button.

Gustavo Mastelotto: K♠K♣
Liran Betito: 5♦4♠

"Wow," several tablemates cried out after seeing Betito's flopped two pair. The 4♥ on the turn improved him to a full house and left Mastelotto looking for just two outs on the river to stay alive.

The 5♠ wasn't one of them and the table let out another collective "wow" as Betito leapt from his seat and clapped his hands together while a stunned Mastelotto made his way to the exit.

Nível 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Bryan Obregon has been on a relentless tear up the chip count leaderboard today, and his latest victim was Christopher Ahrens.

Obregon and Ahrens were heads-up on a flop of 3♣J♣7♠ when Ahrens moved all in for 300,000 from the big blind and Obregon called from early position.

Christopher Ahrens: J♠10♥
Bryan Obregon: 10♣9♦

Ahrens was ahead with a pair of jacks, but his hope proved short-lived as the 8♣ turn improved Obregon to a straight. The river fell the Q♦ and Obregon sent Ahrens to the rail and his stack up past 10,000,000 heading to the dinner break.

Nível 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 5♣3♠3♣, Andrei Boghean bet 300,000 from the button before Faraz Jaka, in the hijack, raised to 700,000.

Boghean spent a few moments counting out his stack before reraising to 1,300,000. It was then Jaka's time to tank before he announced he was all in. Boghean instantly flung in a chip to signify a call.

Faraz Jaka: 8♣7♣
Andrei Boghean: K♠K♣

Jaka was looking to complete his flush draw against Boghean's kings. The 8♥ turn gave him additional outs, but Jaka missed everything on the J♥ river. The stacks were counted down and Boghean narrowly had Jaka's remaining 1,800,000 covered to send him to the rail.

Frank Cucchiara of Next Gen Poker was in the big blind in a heads-up pot against Keanu Tabali on a board of 8♥7♥A♠Q♠.

Frank Cucchiara: 10♥7♦
Keanu Tabali: A♦A♥

Cucchiara had just a pair of tens to be drawing dead against the top set of Tabali as the 10♦ river confirmed the elimination of "Frankie."

Nível 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

According to French poker media, Masato Yokosawa soared near the top of the leaderboard a few minutes ago when he knocked out Clay Johnson in a four-bet pot when the latter called a shove on the 7♣6♠2♦3♠ turn with pocket nines. Yokosawa had pocket aces and held on the Q♣ river.

Yokosawa put the new found chips to use with a raise to 85,000 in the cutoff and Robert French defended the big blind. French check-called the A♦10♠3♦ flop for 55,000 and the 4♥ turn for 165,000.

French also checked the J♠ river and Yokosawa bet 400,000. The check-shove by French followed and Yokosawa instantly folded.

"He is human!" Christopher Kimmel in the nine seat exclaimed.
