Sacha Takes a Pot

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

Jack Peterson opened to 225,000, John Sacha called and the flop came {K-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Peterson checked, Sacha bet 325,000 and Peterson called. The turn came {7-Hearts}, Peterson checked and Sacha moved all in. Peterson mucked after a moment.

Long Standoff Between Roberts and Sacha

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

John Sacha and Reginald Roberts went to a raised flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Roberts bet 400,000 and Sacha stood up to emphatically move all in. He forcefully put out his stack of 100,000 chips and stood for a while.

Roberts went deep into the tank. So long that Sacha got tired to standing motionless while Roberts thought. Sacha eventually sat down and Roberts continued to think silently as Sacha had him covered.

Roberts asked Sacha if he'd show if he folded but Sacha didn't answer. Finally, Roberts folded, Sacha slid his cards forward and let Roberts pick one to expose. Roberts turned up the {10-Spades}.

John Sacha Pulling Away

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

John Sacha has won a lot of small to medium hands over the last 20 minutes. He pulled ahead of the field by a good portion. We have limited access to the final table due to filming but it appears Sacha has more than his three opponents combined.
