Jacob Schiros
Jacob Schiros

Jacob Schiros called in middle position while Joey Gargiulo moved all in from late position for 215,000 total. Action folded back around to Schiros who called for less to put himself at risk.

Jacob Schiros: J7
Joey Gargiulo: AQ

"What are you doing to me man?" Gargiulo lamented despite being ahead, "How can you call there?"

The board ran out K4510J and while Schiros paired his jack on the river, it was no good as Gargiulo made Broadway. Schiros exited the tournament while Gargiulo nearly doubled up

The board read 9x5x5x7x and Turner moved all in for 190,000 which Moneymaker snap-called.

Claybon Turner: Ax9x
Chris Moneymaker: 9x9x

The river 2x did not matter as Turner was drawing dead prior to the river, so the chip leader took another big pot while Turner exited the tournament.
