Csome wasn't willing to concede so quickly; he put in a four-bet to 35,000. Bauer considered his options and then moved all in for a total of 215,000. Csome asked for a count, pondered for about a minute, and then mucked his hand.

It's Crunch Time

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

With just 75 players remaining, we're getting down to the nitty gritty of the money bubble. As marble-sized hail falls from the sky in the middle of summer, we're preparing ourselves to see just about anything on the tournament floor

Level: 15

Blinds: 2,000/4,000

A Colonese Two-For-One

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

A curious hand just played out at the front table. A short stack open-shoved for about 50,000. Action passed to the cutoff player, who over-shoved for about 150,000. With action still pending on Fabio "sepfecti" Colonese in the big blind, the short stack tabled his hand,{a-Spades}{5-Hearts}. The second player didn't realize that Colonese hadn't acted and tabled his own {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Seeing those hands, Colonese elected to call with {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Those nines held, {5-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, to catapult Colonese to about 400,000 in chips.

Emerson Baroni eliminated
Emerson Baroni eliminated

Emerson Baroni moved all in for just under 55,000 after a played opened with a raise to 8,900. That player made a quick called after action folded back to him.

Baroni: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

"Sete! Sete!" yelled out Baroni for a seven.

He got his seven, but there was also a king on the {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop. The turn brought the {J-Hearts} and the river the {J-Diamonds} to finish things from there and Baroni was eliminated.
