Brandon Frazier
Brandon Frazier

Picking up the action on the turn, Jacob Hershey in middle position was involved in a hand with Brandon Frazier in the cutoff. With the board reading {7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Spades} Hershey bet and Frazier responded by moving all in. Hershey immediately called with the covering stack and, before the cards had even been turned over, Frazier murmured 'nice hand'.

Brandon Frazier: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Jacob Hershey: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

Frazier was drawing dead and already out of his seat before the {9-Clubs} river officially eliminated him from the tournament in 8th place.

Jacob Hershey opened to 450,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Gabe Gonzales in the small blind who flatted. The big blind folded to send action heads-up to the flop.

Gonzales moved all in on a flop of {j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} and Hershey quickly called with the covering stack.

Gabe Gonzales: {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Jacob Hershey: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Gonzales was ahead with his flush but the {j-Clubs} turn improved Hershey to a full house, leaving Gonzales drawing extremely thin. No miracle was forthcoming on the {8-Clubs} river, ending Gonzales' deep run in 6th place.

Dorothy Adams: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Isiah Ditoto: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Adams was in bad shape but found help on the {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop. The {k-Diamonds} turn, however, turned the tables back around again with the {5-Hearts} river endings Adams' tournament run.

Ditoto Takes From Hershey

Level 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Jacob Hershey opened to 500,000 on the button only to see Isiah Ditoto three-bet to 2,000,000 out of the big blind. Hershey called to send the two players heads-up to the flop.

Ditoto led out for 1,400,000 on a flop of {10-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and was called by Hershey.

Both players checked through the {9-Clubs} turn to the board pairing {10-Spades} river. Ditoto then checked for a second time and raised to 7,000,000 after Hershey fired off 2,000,000. Hershey flipped over {k-}{q-} for flopped broadway before folding in disgust.

Isiah Ditoto: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Jacob Hershey: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
