Malczan Scores the Knockout

Level 23 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

A middle-position player open shoved for 400,000, and John Malczan re-shoved from the button. All other players folded.

Opponent: {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}
John Malczan: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Board: {7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Joey Deforca
Joey Deforca

With {5-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades} on the board, Arthur Azen bet 400,000 from early position, and Joey Deforca raised all in for 1,265,000.

Azen called, and Deforca showed down {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} to take down what appears to be the biggest pot of the tournament so far. Deforca is up to 2,900,000 in the aftermath.

Patish Back in Business

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mikhail Patish
Mikhail Patish

Mikahil Patish has been relatively short stacked most of the day, but just tripled up to nearly two million and looks to be in good shape to make a deep run with just over two hourd left to play in Day 2.

Patish told PokerNews that the big pot came in a three-way hand that saw Patish hit a set of sevens on a {q-}{7-}{3-}{k-}{x-} board, with another player eliminated with a missed flush draw.

Pepper KOs Dunlop

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Adam Pepper limped on the button, Gordon Dunlop shoved for 272,000 from the small blind, and Pepper made the call, with Dunlop covered.

Gordon Dunlop: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Adam Pepper: {k-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Board: {3-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

The {k-Clubs} on the river wasn't the card Dunlop wanted to see, and his tournament run is over.

Both players checked the {9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, as well as the {4-Spades} turn.

Kim bet 75,000 on the {3-Hearts} river, and Benkovic folded.

Kim showed {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} as he collected the pot.
