Khoroshenin Doubles Through Garibli

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Ilkin Garibli raised all in with the big stack on the button. Joe Kuether folded his small blind and Oleksii Khoroshenin called all in from the big blind for 1.21 million

Garibli: {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Khoroshenin: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

The flop fell {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{J-Spades}, giving Garibli the lead with a pair of aces. However, the {6-Spades} landed on the turn to give Khoroshenin a set of sixes to clinch the hand. The meaningless {8-Spades} river officially locked up the pot for Khoroshenin.

Savard Doubles Through Seiver in Dramatic Fashion

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Jean-Pascal Savard
Jean-Pascal Savard

Joe Kuether opened the action with a raise to 200,000 and it folded over to Jean-Pascal Savard in the small blind and he moved all in over the top for 1.01 million. As soon as the words left Savard's mouth, Scott Seiver shoved all in over the top from the big blind. Kuether folded and the hands were tabled.

Seiver: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Savard: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Seiver was in a dominating position and looked poised to reduce the field by one. The flop came down {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, keeping Seiver's jacks in the lead. The {9-Diamonds} paired the board on the turn, but it also gave Savard four to a diamond flush. Savard ended up making that flush after the {3-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. He was able to score the double to about 2.3 million. Seiver, on the other hand, dropped to 2.15 million.

Nick Petrangelo - 6th Place

Nick Petrangelo open-shoved for approximately 900,000 from the hijack. Action folded to Joe Kuether who moved all in over the top from the small blind. The big blind folded and the hands were shown with Petrangelo at risk.

Petrangelo: {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Kuether: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

The board fell {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{Q-Spades}, failing to improve Petrangelo's hand and eliminating him from play in sixth place.

"Good game, guys," said Petrangelo as he stood from the table and made his way to the rail.

Kuether now has about 2.7 million in chips.

Seiver Doubles on Last Hand Before Break

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Scott Seiver
Scott Seiver

Scott Seiver raised to 130,000 from the button and it folded over to Ilkin Garibli in the big blind. Garibli three-bet the action to 280,000, putting the decision back to Seiver. After about 30 seconds, Seiver announced all in for 1.625 million total and Garibli instantly called.

Seiver: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Garibli: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

Seiver was behind heading to the flop and in dire need of help to stay alive. Fortunately for Seiver, everything turned around after the dealer fanned a {J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} flop. Seiver flopped top set and was suddenly in a great position to double. Garibil found no help on the turn ({4-Clubs}) or the river ({5-Clubs}) and Seiver secured a double heading into break. Full chip counts will be posted momentarily.
