David Salituro

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Joel Mitchell limped in from under the gun and Ricky Landais came along from the cutoff. Nicholas Verderamo then raised to 160,000 on the button, and both Mitchell and Landais called.

The flop came J♣10♦10♠ and Mitchell led out for 275,000. Only Verderamo called.

The turn was the 7♥ and Mitchell bet another 210,000. Verderamo then raised to 1,000,000, and Mitchell tanked for a minute before calling for around 400,000 more.

Verderamo turned over A♦10♥ for trips. "F**k!" Mitchell called out as he showed J♥8♥ for two pair. The river was the 6♥, and Verderamo took the pot to send Mitchell to the rail in 16th place.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Nicholas Verderamo opened the action with a raise to 80,000 and it folded all the way to James Tedrow in the big blind, who gave it some thought and then pushed forward his chips.

"Did you say all-in?" Verderamo inquired and once that was confirmed, he snap-called.

James Tedrow: J♣J♥ All in
Nicholas Verderamo: K♣K♥

Both suits were covered but Tedrow instantly spiked help on the J♦3♦3♥ flop for jacks full. The 7♦ turn and 9♦ river failed to change the outcome of the hand and Tedrow doubled for 565,000.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Sean Ruane raised to 80,000 in the hijack before Nicholas Verderamo three-bet to 210,000 on the button. Adam Kim called for his last 105,000 in the big blind, while Ruane then reraised to 500,000. Verderamo took a minute before folding, leaving Kim and Ruane heads-up.

Adam Kim: 3♣3♥ All in
Sean Ruane: A♥J♠

The two opponents were racing, and the 6♦4♥4♦ flop gave Ruane additional outs to counterfeit Kim's pair. The turn was the 10♣, while the 8♦ fell on the river and Kim survived to triple up.

"My boy got some moves," Ricky Landais said as he exchanged a fist bump with Ruane.

"You broke even," Carlos Chadha told Ruane.

Carlos Chadha raised to 80,000 from under the gun and was called by Ricky Landais in the small blind as well as Nicholas Verderamo in the big blind. The K♠J♥9♦ flop was checked to Chadha who continued for 70,000.

"I can't make any promises," Chadha replied to then get the fold of Verderamo.

In the next limped pot out of the blinds one hand later, Verderamo bet the A♣8♦6♦ flop for 50,000 and Chadha called. On the 9♣ turn, Verderamo check-called for 55,000 and they checked the 2♥ river.

Verderamo declared a pair of treys and showed his 3♦3♣, but Chadha had that beat with K♣6♥.
