EP
Reis was in a dominating spot, but not after the flop. The EP player had hit his eight to take the lead, and held onto it as the appeared on the turn followed by the on the river. It wasn't a big loss for Reis, who dropped to 50,000 after the hand.
Action folded to the player in the hijack and he opened for 6,500, which was soon met with an all-in three-bet to 21,000 by Pablo Gonzalez in the small blind. The big blind got out of the way, while the hijack followed suit. With that, Gonzalez is up to 30,000.
In a battle of the blinds, Carlos Perez got his stack into the middle with against the of Hector Marambio. The board ran out as Marambio rivered a pair to end Perez's Main Event.
We'd like to tell you what he was all in for, but as soon as the river fell Perez pushed his chips over into a big mess in frustration. He quickly regained his composure and shook the hands of everyone at the table before making his exit.
Action folded to Brent Sheirbon on the button and be brought it in for a raise to 4,400. The player in the big blind then pushed back with an all-in shove to 29,000, putting pressure back on Sheirbon, who had about 42,000 behind. The American, who now lives in Panama, thought long and hard before releasing his hand.
We're not sure of the action, though it appeared the chips went in preflop, but Juan Carlos was just knocked down to 40,000 after his failed to hold against the of his middle-position opponent after the board ran out .
