Tocci Takes Out Soucy

Brett Slezak

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Alan Soucy opened from early position and then called after Michele Tocci three-bet to 625,000 from the cutoff.

On the 8♦7♥6♦ flop, Tocci continued for 250,000 and Soucy responded with a check-jam for 1,100,000 and Tocci snapped it off.

Alan Soucy: Q♦Q♣ All in
Michele Tocci: A♥A♣

It was a cooler situation with Tocci having the best of it and nothing changed on the 9♣8♣ runout as Soucy hit the exit.

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Panagiotis Mavritsakis shoved for his last 970,000 from early position and it was folded to Daniel Drommel in the cutoff, who also went all in for more. Everyone else folded and a showdown was held.

Panagiotis Mavritsakis: 3♥3♦ All in
Daniel Drommel: A♠10♠

It was a virtual coin flip, but the 5♦Q♣J♣K♠9♥ improved Drommel to Broadway on the turn — eliminating Mavritsakis about half way through Day 3.

Brecard Sent to the Rail

Tyler Foran

Level 30 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Julien Brecard opened 250,000 in middle position, and Luis Rayon Perez three-bet 600,000 on his left. The action folded back around to Brecard and he jammed for about 2,000,0000. Perez snap-called.

Julien Brecard: 10♠10♥ All in
Luis Rayon Perez: A♥A♠

Brecard ran into the best possible hand, and the J♣6♣2♣4♠5♥ runout was no help as he exited the table.

Perez Continues to Climb as He Gets There the Hard Way

Level 30 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Luis Rayon Perez opened 240,000 in early position and only Anton Gililov came along from the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of K♠10♠4♠, and Gililov check-raised a 150,000 bet to 450,000. Perez responded with an all-in shove, putting Gililov to the test for his remaining 2,600,000. Gililov made the call.

Anton Gililov: K♦10♦ All in
Luis Rayon Perez: A♠9♥

Gililov was in the lead with top two pair and asked the dealer to slowly peel the turn and river. The Q♣ fell on the turn, fading Perez's flush draw but giving him a gutshot straight draw. The J♣ on the river was a painful one for Gililov, as it completed Perez's straight, eliminating Gililov from the tournament."

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Michele Tocci shoved for his last 1,300,000 first-to-act and was called by Claudio Di Giacomo in the hijack. Everyone else folded and hands were revealed.

Michele Tocci: 7♠7♣ All in
Claudio Di Giacomo: A♦J♦

The 6♠4♦5♦ flop gave Di Giacomo additional outs to a flush, which came in after the 3♦ fell on the turn to leave Tocci drawing dead.

An irrelevant 2♥ completed the board and Di Giacomo was sent the rest of Tocci's chips.

Brett Slezak

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Kevin Madar raised to 350,000 from the small blind and Gheorghe Butuc called in the big blind.

On the 5♦4♥2♣ flop, Madar made a continuation bet and Butuc responded with an all-in raise for 1,750,000 and Madar snapped it off.

Gheorghe Butuc: 6♥2♥ All in
Kevin Madar: A♠3♦

Madar had flopped the second nut straight while Butuc had bottom pair and a gutshot. However, Butuc did not improve on the 10♦8♠ runout as he hit the rail.
