Leow Clips Patgorski

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

Five players made it to the {9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} after limping preflop. Dwan bet 120,000 with {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, Jason Koon called with {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Ivan Leow overcalled with {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Gabe Patgorski also joined from the cutoff, holding {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

The {9-Diamonds} troubled Patgorski who hit a baby full house at the same time when Leow made a flush. Leow fired 500,000 and Patgorski processed his options. Then he called to see the bad news when Leow rolled over the winner.

Sass Eliminated in Seventh

Alan Sass
Alan Sass

Under the gun, Gabe Patgorski started the hand with a limp. Rui Cao and Tom Dwan overlimped before Jason Koon jammed his 1,205,000 from the hijack. Alan Sass was in the cutoff, playing just 285,000 and he saw a lot of potential dead money so he called off. The rest of the players got out of the way, allowing a heads-up showdown.

Koon: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Sass: {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

The board of {7-Spades}{A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} eliminated Sass in seventh place, two places away from the money. The tournament continued on the stone bubble.

Tang's Second Barrel Forces Out Patgorski

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

Tom Dwan limped under the gun, prompting overlimps from Ivan Leow and Gabe Patgorski. Devan Tang picked up {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} in the cutoff and he raised to 200,000. Only Patgorski called, holding {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.

They went to the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop and Patgorski check-called another 200,000. He hit two pair on the {Q-Clubs} turn and checked again. Tang fired a second shell, making it 500,000 and Patgorski tanked over 90 seconds. Then he slid his cards towards the muck and Tang scooped the pot with the second best hand.

Dwan Keeps Climbing

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

Tom Dwan raised to 135,000 with {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} in the middle and Ivan Leow flatted {J-Spades}{10-Hearts} on the button. A wet flop of {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} landed on the table and Dwan check-called 275,000.

Dwan hit a straight on the {8-Hearts} turn and he checked again. Leow tapped back and the {7-Spades} brought a jack-high straight on the board. Dwan led out 375,000 and Leow wasn't interested in calling for a potential chop, saving himself from further loss.

Dwan Pulling the Strings

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

Four-way to the {A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop, Tom Dwan fired 155,000 in the hijack, holding {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Only Gabe Patgorski called with {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and they checked the {9-Spades} turn.

The {8-Clubs} river completed a sick runout and Patgorski checked to Dwan who went for a bluff. He bet 320,000 and Patgorski spent about a minute before laying his hand down.

Dwan Picks Up a Small One

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

Devan Tang made it 170,000 with {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts} in the middle position and Tom Dwan called with {J-Diamonds}{9-Spades} in the cutoff.

Tang checked the {Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} flop and Dwan agreed to see the {8-Spades} turn. Tang checked one more time and Dwan decided to take the pot, betting 250,000. Tang's hand was completely disconnected to the runout and he let it go.

Koon Three-Bets With Trips

Level 12 : 0/0, 20,000 ante

On the last hand before the redraw, the feature table saw a flop of {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades}. Ivan Leow and Devan Tang checked to Jason Koon who fired 75,000 in position. Koon flooped trips with {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and he liked to see Leow fire a check-raise to 225,000. Tang had an easy fold to make but Koon wasn't going anywhere. He stacked a three-bet to 450,000, finally convincing Leow to waive the white flag.
