Shak Takes a Hit

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

We caught the action on a {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop when Dan Shak checked from the big blind and Jarrod Glennon did the same on the button. The latter then led out for 225,000 on the {K-Diamonds} turn, Glennon called, and the {5-Spades} peeled off on the river.

Shak checked and made a quick call when when Glennon bet 350,000. The Australian rolled over {K-Spades}{10-Hearts} for two pair, and it was good as Shak sent his cards to the muck facedown.

Four-Bet from Glennon

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Jarrod Glennon opened to 160,000 from under the gun, Patrik Antonius three-bet to 300,000 on his direct left, and the action folded back to Glennon. He sat quietly for the better part of 30 seconds, riffling chips with his right hand before four-betting to 650,000.

The action was back on Antonius, who eyed the bet. Nearly a minute later, he folded, and Glennon picked up the pot.

Cabret Doubles

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Joseph Cabret
Joseph Cabret

Patrik Antonius opened to 160,000 on the button, Dan Shak called in the small blind, and Joseph Cabret three-bet to 605,000 from the big blind. Antonius folded, Shak moved all in for effectively 2.35 million, and Cabret snap-called.

Shak: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Cabret: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Cabret remained ahead as the flop fell {2-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, and Shak was drawing dead once the {k-Hearts} turned.

A meaningless {10-Spades} completed the board, and Cabret was shipped a massive double.

Shak's Kicker Makes the Difference

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Mervin Chan opened for 160,000 from the cutoff and Dan Shak defended from the big blind. Both players checked the {10-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop and then Shak check-called a bet of 160,000 on the {8-Diamonds} turn. Both players returned to checking on the {7-Hearts} river and Chan showed {A-}{2-}, but it was no good as Shak help {A-}{9-} and his nine player.

Antonius Tank-Folds Preflop

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Patrik Antonius opened to 160,000 on the button, Dan Shak three-bet to 500,000 from the small blind, and Antonius asked Shak for a count. Shak gave him a rough estimate, and then stared down the Fin. Antonius did not stare back, rather he stared at a single spot on the felt.

This one-man staredown went on for the better part of two minutes, until Shak finally turned away.

Antonius tanked for around 30 seconds more, then folded.

Ten Plays

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Patrik Antonius opened for 160,000 from the cutoff only to have Joseph Cabret three-bet to 375,000 from the button. The blinds both folded and Antonius thought for a long time before making the call. Both players then checked the {4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop and the {J-Spades} appeared on the turn.

Antonius led out for 400,000, Cabret called, and then both players returned to checking on the river, which we didn't quite see. Cabret tabled {A-}{8-} but it was no good as Antonius held {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. The ten kicker played and Antonius was pushed the pot.

Jarrod Glennon Eliminated in 5th Place (AU$290,000)

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Jarrod Glennon - 5th Place
Jarrod Glennon - 5th Place

After nearly six hours since the last elimination, a monster pot just went down that resulted in the elimination of Australian Jarrod Glennon.

It happened when Joe Cabret opened for 160,000 under the gun for 160,000 and then called when Glennon three-bet to 375,000 from the button. Cabret then check-called a bet of 325,000 on the {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop before leading out for 825,000 on the {10-Clubs} turn. Glennon called, the {2-Hearts} peeled off on the river, and Cabret moved all in.

Glennon hit the tank for a solid eight minutes weighing the decision. He shifted in his chair, shook his head, and continued to ruffle chips. Eventually he called off his remaining 2 million or so and Cabret revealed {J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a flush. Glennon looked crushed and simply tossed his cards to the dealer before exiting the tournament in fifth place for AU$290,000.
