Jaharguiri's Dreams Flushed Away

Rod Jaharguiri's WSOPC Choctaw Main Event is over after a nasty river sent him packing.

He and Abraham Araya tangled over a massive pot with Jaharguiri on {k-}{j-} and Araya holding {j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Both turned trip jacks and all the money went in with Jaharguiri miles ahead, but the river put a third club on board to give Araya a flush.

King Me

As quick as Abraham Araya pushed over the 2 million chip mark, he's back down under it.

Justin Gardenhire just doubled through him, open-raising with kings and then jamming after an Araya three-bet.

Araya had nines, the kings held and Gardenhire has a big stack now.

Will Carrion is no longer with us.
Will Carrion is no longer with us.

Derek Browning opened on the button and Will Carrion shoved from the small blind. After the big blind folded Browning only had to invest about another 100,000 to call.

Browning called holding {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts} and was up against Carrion's {A-} {2-}. Carrion looked good until Browning hit a five on the river to send Carrion to the cashier's cage.

Hugo Perez and Joe Hall went to the flop of {K-Hearts} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds} together. Hall bet 70,000 and Perez called. The turn brought the {A-Spades} and Hall slid out 150,000. Perez tanked for a few moments before deciding to call. The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and Hall pushed his remaining 320,000 into the pot. Perez again thought for a few long moments before sliding in a call.

"Wow, nice call sir," Hall said and tabled {Q-Spades} {J-Hearts}.

Perez clapped his hands together and tabled {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} for aces up.

Johnnies Be Good

Abraham Araya started the day as chip leader, but the past level and a half have not been good to him.

Down to his last 650k and facing a Daniel Lowery 60k open, he shipped it in and Lowery made the call. Araya had jacks, Lowery held tens and the jacks held to give him a much needed double up and right what looked like a sinking ship.
