Another player has found the rail. This time an elimination hand started when the action folded around to Jeff Rossiter in the small blind. Having Anson Tsang, the short stack, covered, Rossiter moved all in. Tsang looked down at his cards and called off his last 4.55 million in chips.
Rossiter:
Tsang:
Tsang was slightly ahead, but the flop changed that and with a turn and a river, Rossiter had made a full house and Tsang was eliminated in 7th place for which he receives HK$7,150,000 (US$922,580). The next player to go home will collect HK$8,300,000 (US$1,070,967).
Take into account the above as we tell you that Rossiter recently got all his chips in preflop holding against the of Sorel Mizzi. The flop all but sealed it for Rossiter and while Mizzi hit a on the turn, a meaningless brick on the river meant Rossiter had doubled up to around 30 million. Mizzi is down to around 15 million.
Sorel Mizzi was under the gun when he opened it up to 2 million. Folded around to Isaac Haxton in the cutoff, he would move all in for around 14 million. Back on Mizzi and he looked a little pained as he decided to let his cards go.
Sorel Mizzi recently shoved on back-to-back hands. First it was when the action folded to him in the small blind. He shoved and Niklas Heinecker folded the big blind.
The very next hand and Mizzi moved all in again, this time from the button. Heinecker again folded, while Haxton open-folded . Mizzi then showed as he raked in a few more million.
Folded around to Isaac Haxton in the cutoff, he raised it up to 2 million. The play was then on Jeff Rossiter in the big blind and he three-bet shoved. Haxton quickly folded and the pot went to Rossiter.
Igor Kurganov was under the gun plus when he opened it up to 2 million. The play then folded around to Sorel Mizzi on the button and he tanked before three-betting all in. Back on Kurganov and he quickly folded.
