Gafner Makes a Big Call Against Lazrus

Level 30 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 896, Toby Gafner bet 1,600,000 from the button and Daniel Lazrus raised to 4,000,000 in the cutoff. Gafner called, and the K fell on the turn.

Lazrus then moved all in for another 4,250,000, and Gafner tanked for several minutes before calling. Lazrus showed A2 for a flush draw, while Gafner had 77. The river was the K, and Gafner held on to win the big pot.

"Let's go! Get the f**k out of here. Not you. Good hand," Gafner shouted out to Lazrus, who was sent to the rail.

At another table, John Malvasio had opened to 800,000 in the hijack and Thomas Yarbrough three-bet to 2,000,000 on the button. Malvasio called, and the flop came 756.

Yarbrough then bet 650,000, and Malvasio came back with a raise to 3,000,000. Yarbrough also took several minutes, but he eventually folded.

He Might Be a Fishman But Today He is a Cowboy

Level 30 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Baruch Fishman jammed for 3,225,000 on the button and Yuriy Kudrynskyy quickly called in the big blind.

Yuriy Kudrynskyy: A7

Fishman woke up with a premium off a short stack but still had to fade Kudrynskyy's overcard. However, the board would run out J6532, leaving Fishman's kings best to double.

Level 29 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Will Failla opened to 700,000 in early position and was called by Daniel Lazrus in the cutoff.

On the 733 flop, Failla led for 600,000 and Lazrus called.

John Malczan raised to 1,000,000 in the hijack and Leno Thomas called all in for less in the big blind.

John Malczan: AQ

"Keep it low," Thomas pleaded, but Malczan hit two pair on the Q83KK board to send Thomas to the rail.

"He had two big blinds. One of them was in there," tablemate Greg Himmelbrand explained as a few players at the table were wondering about Thomas' hand.

The next hand, Zong Yang Zhang shoved for 2,500,000 in the big blind and Malczan called in middle position.

Zong Yang Zhang: K6 All in
John Malczan: KQ
