Daniel Negreanu raised to 6,800 under the gun, and he was called in four places. The dealer ran a flop of , and the big blind checked. Negreanu continued out with another 26,000 of his own chips, but that's as much money as he'd put into this pot. The player next door raised all in for 137,200, and next to him, Tyler Cornell flatted with his big stack. That folded the rest of the table, and the cards of the two live players were turned up:
All-in Player:
Cornell:
The on the turn was a blank, and Cornell was looking for a heart to claim the pot.
River:
That'll do it. With the big pot being pushed to his corner, Cornell has claimed the knockout to move all the way up to about 410,000.
From the cutoff seat, Rep Porter raised to 7,500. The small blind three-bet to 19,100 and then Anh Van Nguyen four-bet to 45,200. Both Porter and the small blind folded, allowing Nguyen to pick up the pot and move to 160,000 in chips.
A player in early position opened to 6,000, and the player next to him called. Action folded to a middle-aged gentleman we'll call Player #3, and he squeezed in a reraise to 26,100. That brought the decision onto Chris DeMaci, and he spent some time in the tank considering. After a minute or three, he reraised to 58,000, enough to fold the first two players in the pot. Player #3 moved all in for 82,700, though, and DeMaci made a reluctant call to put him at risk.
Showdown
Player #3:
DeMaci:
DeMaci asked politely for a nine, but the board ran out . After granting that double, DeMaci has slipped a bit, but he's still well above the chip average with about 455,000 left.
Tom McEvoy, the winner of the 1983 World Series of Poker, has been nursing a short stack all day. Recently, he raised to 5,600 from middle position, leaving himself around 30,000 behind, and Yevgeniy Timoshenko raised enough to put McEvoy all in. He made the call and Timoshenko said, "You're ahead."
Timoshenko:
McEvoy:
Indeed, McEvoy was ahead, but not after the flop came down . "Oh, come on," McEvoy pleaded. The gave him some extra outs, but the did not deliver. McEvoy was eliminated from the Big Event while Timoshenko is up to 240,000.
Under the gun, Cynthia May -- our last woman standing -- limped in for 3,000. The table folded around to the button where Nick Guagenti stuck in a raise to 9,000, and May was the only caller.
Heads up, they took a flop, and Guagenti continued out with a bet of 10,500. That sent May deep into the tank as she fumbled with her remaining chips for several minutes. Guagenti eventually called the clock, but May made the call as the floorman was counting down her final few seconds. On to the turn!
It was the , and the lady checked again. Guagenti bet another 17,500, and May went back into the tank for a long while. She stood up, counted down her stack, then sat down. Then she repeated the whole process again. A couple players at the table were getting a bit peeved, and Guagenti said that he was going to have to call the clock again if she didn't hurry up.
"Clock!" someone else at the table called.
The floorman was again counting down her final few seconds by the time May made her decision, and it was to fold, slapping her cards into the muck with about 65,000 chips left.
Guagenti couldn't resist flashing his as he raked in the pot, and Ms. May let out a not-so-ladylike, "F***!" at the sight of her opponent's bluff.
After a series of preflop raises, Scott Clements found himself all in with and called by the of Victor Ramdin. Clements was in a dominating position but Ramdin had been on a heater throughout Day 2. That didn't change as the flop came down , giving Ramdin a straight.
The table couldn't believe it as Clements began to collect his things. The turn was no help and neither was the river. Clements was eliminated short of the money while Ramdin is up to 690,000.
In addition, Ray Henson has been sent to the rail.
From under the gun, a player raised to 5,500. A player in middle position flat-called and then Hiren Patel reraised from the button to 19,000. The blinds and the original raiser folded, but the middle-position player made the call.
The flop came down and action passed over to Patel with a check from the player in middle position. Patel stayed aggressive and bet 21,500. His opponent folded and Patel chipped up top 177,000.
With about 7,000 in the pot and a flop of , Amit Makhija bet 3,600 from the small blind and was called by his sole opponent in Seat 5. When the dealer burned and turned the , Makhija slowed down with a check and Seat 5 took the lead with a 7,400 bet. Makhija gave it a moment's though before conceding the pot. He is down to 94,000.
