Garand Can't Call

Level 6 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

With the clock running down to zero, Brandon Steven opened under the gun to 100,000. Action folded around to Pierre Garand in the big blind.

"One for the road" he said as he called while the other players started their 60-minute dinner break.

Garand bet out 200,000 on {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Steven called.

The {8-Spades} hit the turn and Garand, with a big smile, bet 350,000. Steven raised to 900,000 and Garand called.

With the {K-Spades} completing the board, Garand checked. Steven bet 910,000 and after some time thinking about it, Garand folded.

David Einhorn Takes it on the River

Level 6 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

David Einhorn raised to 100,000 from the button and Zuo Wang three-bet to 315,000 from the small blind. Einhorn called.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Wang continued for 240,000. Einhorn thought for a minute, then called.

The {5-Spades} fell on the turn and Zuo checked. Einhorn bet out 450,000 and Wang called. The river was the {q-Diamonds} and Wang checked again. Einhorn tossed out 1,100,000 and Wang went deep into the tank. After thinking for about three minutes, he folded his hand, and the dealer pushed the pot to Einhorn.

Einhorn Brings the Pain

Level 6 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

We've seen a lot of check-raising in this tournament so far and David Einhorn was the latest to pull off the trick. He opened to 100,000 and called after an in position Zuo Wang had three-bet to 300,000 total.

The two of them saw a {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{A-Clubs} flop, Einhorn checked, Wang bet out for 375,000 and Einhorn decided to check-raise to 900,000 straight. It didn't take Wang too long to release his cards and concede the pot to Einhorn.
