Getzwiller Lays Down the Ladies

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Sean Getzwiller raised to 50,000 only to be called by Tom Marchese from the big blind. The flop fell {4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{A-Clubs} and the action went check-check.

When the {4-Spades} turned, Marchese led out for 77,000 and Getzwiller made the call. The river brought the {5-Diamonds} and Marchese fired out again, this time making it 230,000. After some deliberation, Getzwiller let out a sigh and folded {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} face up.

Mis-Click for Junglen

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

With the action on Adam Junglen in early position, he opened the action with a raise to 105,000.

The table folded round to the 5.25x preflop raise, and Junglen just shook his head back-and-forth as he and some of the other table members talked about how he mis-clicked and was supposed to make it 45,000.

Mark Radoja limped in from middle position as Nicolas Fierrogottner, Nikita Lebedev, Todd Terry and Adam Junglen followed suit from the cutoff around to the big blind.

The {10-Spades}{K-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop was checked through to Lebedev who splashed 50,000 into the pot to force Terry and Junglen out from the blinds before Radoja and Fierrogottner both called.

The turn of the {10-Hearts} saw Radoja check for the second time before Fierrogottner took the lead by firing out 150,000. Lebedev folded, but Radoja made the call as the {2-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Radoja checked and Fierrogottner cut out a bet of 400,000 to put the Canadian deep into the think-tank. After nearly two minutes, Radoja eventually made the call only to muck at the sight of Fierrogottner's {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for quads as he moves to over the 2 million-chip mark.

Action folded around to Adam Junglen on the button who raised to 45,000. Sean Getzwiller capped his cards with a chip and thought for a minute before making it 140,000 to go. Mark Radoja in the big blind decided to four-bet the action, making it 260,000 total.

Junglen got out of the way and Getzwiller announced "I'm all in", to which Radoja snap called.

Getzwiller: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}
Radoja: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}

The flop came {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, followed by a {9-Spades} on the turn. This card gave Getzwiller straight draw outs to crack the pocket aces, but he came up short when the board paired on the river with the {10-Diamonds}. Radoja scooped the biggest pot of this final table so far.

Full House for Junglen

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Todd Terry opened to 50,000 from middle position and Adam Junglen made the call next to act as the flop fell {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

Terry fired out a continuation-bet of 60,000 which Junglen called as the {4-Diamonds} landed on the turn and Terry continued for 130,000. Junglen smoothed, and when the river landed the {Q-Clubs}, he was faced with a 255,000-chip bet from Terry.

Junglen made the call and tabled his {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} to best Terry's {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} as he slipped to 880,000 while Junglen moved to 2,30,000 in chips.

Preflop Aggression

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

We've been seeing a lot of preflop aggression over the first 70 minutes of this final table, as showcased in the following three hands:

Scott Baumstein raised to 52,000 from the hijack only to find Jeffrey Gross three-bet to 125,000 from the button. Action folded back around to Baumstein who also tossed his cards into the muck.

The next hand, Todd Terry raised to 50,000 from under the gun. Action folded all the way around to Nicolas Fierrogottner who made it 145,000 to go. Terry quickly mucked his cards and Fierrogottner scooped the pot.

The following hand, Mark Radoja made it 48,000 from early position. He was called by NIkita Lebedev in the small blind. Todd Terry decided to three-bet the action to 175,000 from the big blind and both Radoja and Lebedev threw their hands away.

The players seem to be choosing their spots to take a flop very carefully during this tournament and it will be interesting to see how play develops once we finally start to see some more flops.

Fierrogottner Tripped Up by Baumstein

Scott Baumstein opened to 58,000 only to have Nicolas Fierrogottner three-bet the cutoff to 155,000.

Baumstein made the call and then check-called 180,000 on the {Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} flop. When the turn landed the {4-Clubs}, Baumstein took the lead by pushing out a 155,000-chip bet which Fierrogottner called as the {10-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Baumstein announced a bet of 385,000 and pushed out an assortment of chips before Fierrogottner made the call.

Baumstein tabled his {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for nut-trips to collect the pot and move to over 2.5 million as Fierrogottner slips to under 1.3 million.
