Matthew Kurtz

Matthew Kurtz opened for 3,000 from late position and was called by Jake Neff on the button, along with the big blind player.

The {2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop was checked to Kurtz who fired out 5,500. Neff called while the big blind player folded and the dealer burned and turned the {4-Clubs}.

Both players checked and the dealer dropped the {j-Clubs} on the river.

Kurtz thought for a moment then moved all in getting a quick fold from Neff.

Ilya Vasserman opened action from late position and the button player three-bet to 40,000, leaving himself with only 5,000 left behind. Action was back on Vasserman who called to see a {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} flop.

Ilya Vasserman: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Vasserman was ahead with his made hand and neither the {5-Hearts} turn, nor the {9-Spades} river changed that as he eliminated his opponent from the tournament.
