Meir Shoves on Charette
Level 7
: 300/600, 600 ante
Shaul Meir raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and Duff Charette three-bet to 5,900 on the button. Action folded back to Meir who shoved. Charette asked for a count and the dealer confirmed Meir had 28,500 behind.
"Don't call!" Meir said.
"Why not?" Charette asked.
"I only want this," Meir replied while pointing at the pot.
Charette considered his options for a while. "Will you show if I fold?" he asked Meir.
"After... I will send it to you. Take my number, I'll take a picture and send it to you," Meir replied. "I have deuces." Meir added.
"I almost believe you" Duff remarked before opting to fold.

Chobineh Takes Chip Lead
Level 6
: 200/500, 500 ante
The board read 
with just over 30,000 in the middle already.
Christian Rotundo had shoved from mid-position for 11,500 and was called by Artak Sargsyan in the hijack. Bahram Chobineh decided to overshove, having both of his opponents covered. Sargsyan tanked for a while but then opted to fold. Chobineh gave a sigh of relief and tabled 
for the flush. Rotundo was already up from his seat and flipped over 
before making his way out of the tournament area.
