Noor Runs Into Mclaughlin's Aces

Level 18 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Action folded to Michael Noor in the hijack and he moved all-in for 1,515,000. Marc Etienne Mclaughlin was in the cutoff and moved all-in over the top for just barely more.

Noor tabled {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and was disappointed to see he was up against the November Niner's {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Mclaughlin flopped top set while Noor made a fairly insignificant pair of sixes. The turn, however, brought some spice with the {8-Hearts} to give Noor both flush and straight draws. The river was the {q-Spades} though and Noor was eliminated.

River Value for Rivest

Level 18 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

With over 3,000,000 already piled up in the middle, Kevin Rivest bet 1,825,000 on the river of a {5-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades} board.

His heads-up opponent Adeel Aman Bangash went into the tank. The call would be for half of Bangash's stack. After a few moments, Bagansh made the call and was forced to muck when Rivest tabled {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for two-pair.

The Fox-en Says "All-In"

Level 18 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
William Foxen

Patrick Serda raised to 425,000 from the cutoff and the player in the small blind called. Alex Foxen was in the big blind and thought for a moment before three-betting to 1,550,000. Serda called after a brief pause, and the action was on the small blind. He thought for about thirty seconds, visibly torn with the decision, and eventually folded.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Foxen led out for 1,300,000. Serda called.

The turn was the {a-Clubs}. Foxen tanked for about a minute and then shoved for just over 4 million. Serda thought for about a minute himself and eventually mucked.

"I hope you didn't have the ace of diamonds" laughed Serda.

The two players have had an extraordinary week on the online felt. Foxen took down a $5K event on partypoker for over $220,000 and Serda won the $10K WCOOP High Roller for $469,000. Both players have healthy stacks here on Day 3 with a shot at another six-figure score.

Level 18 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

After an open from early position, Pablo Mariz three-bet jammed for about 2,4000,000 on the button. Michel-Claude Baroud flatted from the small blind and the original raiser folded.

Mariz: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}
Baroud: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Mariz was racing for his tournament life but the board was not in his favor, running out {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Baroud raked in the pot while Mariz was sent to collect his winnings.
