Himpele Bests Patish

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Don Himpele put out a pot-size bet to 81,000 from middle position, with the board showing {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{j-Spades}, and Mikhail Patish called in the hijack.

With the pot now over 240,000, the river fell {9-Diamonds} Himpele checked, and Patish thought it over for a bit before deciding to check back.

Himpele tabled {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, and Patish mucked.

The table broke immediately after the hand, but also spotted at that table was Tomer Kravitz, who appears to be at or near the very top of the chip leaderboard with 1,580,000 chips.

Mills Doubles Through Hararay

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Justin Mills opened from under the gun, Albert Harary three-bet to 150,000 on his direct left, and Mills four-bet shoved for 553,000.

Harary made the call, and the two went heads up for over a million chips.

Justin Mills: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Albert Harary: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Board: {4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{2-Spades}{8-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Mills, with the win, now sits as one of at least five players at Table 1 that have upward of one million chips. Harary, despite the lost pot, is still in seven-figure territory as well.

Table 1 appears to be heading for some big pots in the latter half of the day as Day 2 continues.
