Eastgate Doubles Up

Peter Eastgate raised to 145,000 from middle-position, Vivek Rajkumar was in the big blind and announced all-in.

Eastgate instantly called with {10-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}, Rajkumar showed {K-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} and the board came {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {3-Spades} {4-Clubs}.

Eastgate is up to 2,300,000 again and Rajkumar has 1,950,000.

Senniger probably feels bad about folding top pair now...

Eastgate Doubles Up (Again)

Peter Eastgate raises to 140,000, Vivek Rajkumar reraises to 420,000 and after a moment's thought Eastgate reraises all-in. Rajkumar snap-calls but hates what he sees...

Rajkumar: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
Eastgate: {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}

{4-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {9-Clubs} is a board that can't save Rajkumar. Eastgate is up to 3,500,000 and Rajkumar is crippled with just 400,000.

A Series of Small Hands

We've seen nary a flop the past few minutes, as virtually every hand has been taken down with a simple preflop raise. With a couple of serious short stacks at the table now though, something's got to give eventually...

No-One Is Allowed To Go...

Vivek Rajkumar moves all-in for 745,000. Karim Bennani reraises all-in for 795,000. Raymond Wu then thought for ages before folding.

Bennani: {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds}
Rajkumar: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

Flop: {J-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {10-Hearts} aka something for everyone.

"Wow!" says Vivek.

Turn: {Q-Spades} and Bennani makes the straight, Rajkumar needs a King to win or an eight to split.

River: {8-Hearts}

"Oooooohhhh" goes the crowd and Bennani and Rajkumar split the pot.
