La Boissonniere is the New Boss

Level 29 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

On a board reading {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, Charles La Boissonniere checked from the small blind. Aaron Lawrence Czaja bet 1,500,000 on the button and La Boissonniere called.

The river was the {5-Diamonds} and La Boissonniere checked again. Czaja quickly slid forward a bet of 2,500,000 and La Boissonniere thought for about a minute before calling.

Czaja rapped the table, indicating La Boissonniere made a good call, and tabled {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for king-high. La Boissonniere tabled {j-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a pair of jacks and raked in the pot.

"With the ten blocked I felt like I had to call" continued the new chip leader.

Maurice Simard
Maurice Simard

Jason Mandanici-Turcot opened to 425,000 and called a three-bet jam from Maurice Simard with a very similar stack of about 4.6 million.

Simard: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Mandanici-Turcot: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

A race for a massive stack finished in favor of Mandanici-Turcot as his pair held through the {2-Hearts}{8-Spades}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

When the stacks were cut down, Simard had Mandanici-Turcot covered by just 25,000 and was eliminated in the small blind the very next hand.

Karim Abdelhamid
Karim Abdelhamid

Karim Abdelhamid was all-in from the hijack for his last 1,660,000 chips and Aaron Czaja moved in over top from the cutoff.

Abdelhamid was at risk and well behind with {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, up against Czaja's {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Czaja flopped a set to take an overwhelming lead. The turn was the {7-Hearts} and Abdelhamid was drawing dead to the {3-Spades} on the river.

Gerones Doubles Through Czaja

Level 30 : 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Aaron Czaja opened to 550,000 from under-the-gun and called a three-bet jam of 3,895,000 from Carlos Gerones out of the big blind.

Gerones: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Czaja: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Gerones was dominated and in trouble but like many domination-nation all-in pots so far today, the board ran out {9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{q-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and the worst hand pre came from behind and won the pot.

Michael Khan moved all-in for 3,150,000 from the cutoff and Garrett Dansereau moved in over the top from the small blind.

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Khan was eliminated in 11th place.
