Kachittavong Jumps to the Top

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Tarkmani Takes Back from Gelman

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Just moments after Gary Gelman made a terrific call on the river against Mohammed Tarkmani the two played another pot. Gelman opened to 2,500 from under the gun, Tarkmani called on the button and Ralph Macri defended his big blind.

The flop rolled out {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and all three players checked to the {10-Diamonds} turn card. Macri led out for 2,000 and Gelman called. Tarkmani bumped it up to 6,000 and both opponents called the bet.

The {5-Spades} completed the board, action checked to Tarkmani and he threw in a bet of 15,000. Macri folded to Gelman who called and Tarkmani said "I have a jack," as he tabled {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Gelman shook his head as he shipped his cards into the muck, giving Tarkmani back some chips.

Raman Finds a Great Spot, Sends One Home

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

The turned board read {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and there was around 8,000 in the pot. The four-way pot checked to the cutoff player who bet 3,200.

Bryce Fox and Jeff Raman both called and the fourth player in the pot check-raised all in for around 26,000. The initial raiser and Fox both folded to Raman who snap-called.

The all-in player turned over {q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a pair of fives with a flush draw and was in bad shape when Raman turned over his {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for the nuts. The river did not come down a club and Raman pulled in the pot, eliminating his opponent from the tournament.
