Hand #14 - Ty Reiman

Aage Ravn has the button in Seat 3. Benjamin Zamani limps in from early position and Ty Reiman limps behind. Action folds around to Tom Koral in the small blind. He raises to 550,000. Harrison Gimbel folds out of the big blind, Zamani mucks and then Reiman tanks. After a little while, Reiman makes a reraise to 1.320 million. Koral moves all in for 4.480 million and Reiman calls.

Reiman rolls over {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} and Koral holds {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}. Yesterday, Reiman was the one holding pocket queens against John Duthie's aces and was able to come from behind to claim the massive pot.

The flop is clean for Reiman when it lands {6-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}. The turn card brings some scary paint when the {J-Clubs} falls. The river card produces some more paint with the {K-Hearts}, but not the paint Koral needs.

Koral finishes in 8th place, earning $201,300 for his efforts. Reiman moves up to over 15 million and controls the largest stack at the table.

The turn brings the {7-Clubs} and both players check, sending the action to the river -- {A-Clubs}.

Two more checks prompts an early showdown and Koral tables {J-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a pair of jacks, which claims in the pot. D'Angelo flashed {9-?}{3-?} before mucking his cards.

Hand #6 - Harrison Gimbel

Aage Ravn has the button in Seat 3 and action folds over to Ryan D'Angelo who raises to 220,000. Harrison Gimbel reraises to 650,000 from the big blind. D'Angelo asks for a count on Gimbel's stack and then four-bets to 1.3 million. Gimbel moves all in and D'Angelo calls. It's showdown time.

Gimbel rolls over {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} while D'Angelo holds {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}. We've got our first all-in situation and it's going to be a flip.

The flop is dealt {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} {3-Hearts} and Gimbel's supporters cheer. The turn card brings the {A-Clubs}, keeping Gimbel ahead. The final card to hit the board is the {K-Clubs} and Gimbel goes on to make a full house and double up through the start-of-the-day chip leader.

Gimbel was all in for 5.085 million and now has over 10 million in chips. D'Angelo lost about half of his stack.
