Neilson Eliminates Raskin

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Micah Raskin on Day 1a.
Micah Raskin on Day 1a.

"All in and a call," we heard a dealer say from a table behind us. When we turned around we saw Micah Raskin was all in and at risk against Daniel Neilson.

A preflop raising way resulted in Raskin being all in for roughly 60,000 from the big blind with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}, which was well behind the {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} Neilson held in the small blind. The {A-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop paired both players, but Neilson's king kicker had him out in front. The {J-Clubs} turn meant Raskin needed a queen on the river to survive, but it wasn't in the cards as the useless {6-Diamonds} blanked.

Fun Times with the Great Fundaro

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Action folded to 2012 World Poker Tour Mazagan champ Giacomo Fundaro on the button and he opened for 4,200. The small blind then three-bet to 15,200, the big blind folded, and Fundaro made the call.

Fundaro called a bet of 4,200 from his opponent on the {3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop, and then the small blind checked the {J-Spades} turn. Fundaro took the opportunity to fire out 19,900, and it was enough to get the job done as his opponent folded after thinking about it for 60 seconds.
