Khajavi Scores a Double Elimination with Bullets

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante

Newton Graziano opened to 1,100 from early position, David Olshan made the call from the hijack and Sahar Khajavi continued her aggressive play by throwing in a three-bet of 4,500.

Graziano made the call and Olshan swiftly pushed his remaining chips all in for around 14,000. Khajavi moved all in over the top for more than enough to cover both her opponents and Graziano made the call, the players turned over their hands.

Sahar Khajavi: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Newton Graziano: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
David Olshan: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The flop came down {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Khajavi's aces were still ahead of her opponents. A {2-Diamonds} on the turn and {8-Hearts} on the river changed nothing as Khajavi took down the pot, eliminating both of her opponents, catapulting her stack over the 70,000 mark and putting her near the top of the leaderboard.

Tucker Still on a Heater Early in the Day

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante
Thomas Tucker on Day 1c
Thomas Tucker on Day 1c

A turned flop of {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} was showing when Thomas Tucker bet 2,500 into a pot around 3,000. James Sinkovic took a moment to think before throwing his chips in the middle to make the call.

The {q-Hearts} landed on the river, Tucker bet 2,500 again and again Sinkovic made the call. Sinkovic tabled {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} for a rivered pair of queens, but Tuckers turned over {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a rivered straight and more than enough to take down the pot, increasing his Day 1c chip lead.

Khajavi gets Some Back

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

It has been an up and down battle for Sahar Khajavi early on Day 1c. Just moments after losing a sizable pot Khajavi was raised to 500 from the cutoff, finding callers in Newton Graziano in the big blind and Patrica Chapin who limped under the gun.

The flop fell {8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, Chapin led for 800, being quickly raised to 2,200 by Khajavi and action folded to Chapin as she made the call. A {3-Clubs} flipped over on the turn, action checked to Khajavi and she instantly fired in 2,800. Chapin made the fold and Khajavi scooped in the pot.
