Bilotti Riivers Set One Card Too Late

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Nicholas Bilotti
Nicholas Bilotti

There was three-way action that saw a {5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop. Wen Zhang jammed for 161,000 from the big blind and Nicholas Bilotti called for less holding 147,000 from late position. Action was on the button player who called having both players covered.

Wen Zhang: {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}
Button Player: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Nicholas Bilotti: {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

Both Zhang and Bilotti were at risk as their opponent was ahead and held the same staright draw as Zhang.

Luckily for Zhang, the dealer turned the {7-Diamonds} giving him the only chance he had at staying alive but the same couldn't be said for Bilotti as he needed a six to fall on the river to try and get a chop as well.

Instead, the dealer added some salt to the wound dropping the {2-Spades} giving him the set but it was too late and he was eliminated from the tournament.

Sucov Rakes In Biggest Pot of the Day; Leaves Tynion Jr with Dust

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

In another blind versus blind battle, Patrick Tynion Jr check-called Edan Sucov's 95,000 bet after a {2-Hearts}{4-Spades}{j-Spades} flop to see the {3-Spades} fall on the turn.

Tynion Jr check-called Sucov's 175,00 bet and saw the {9-Diamonds} river complete the board.

Tynion Jr checked his option one last time and was faced with an all in bet from Sucov.

The move sent Tynion Jr into the tank as both players were evenly stacked but after a few minutes, Tynion Jr called only to see bad news.

Edan Sucov: {k-Spades}{2-Spades}
Patrick Tynion Jr: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

Sucov turned the flush crumbling Tynion Jr's hand and he sent over 701,000 leaving himself with only 35,000 which would be gone shortly after.

Thomas Holowchuk open-jammed for 131,000 from middle position and Kevin Lutz jammed over the top from the small blind getting isolation.

Kevin Lutz: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Thomas Holowchuk: {a-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

The turn came the {8-Spades} taking away Holowchuk's straight outs and as he now needed an ace to fall.

Unfortunately for Holowchuk, the river paired the board with the {7-Clubs} and he was eliminated from the tournament.
