Dominic Gabaldon opened for 45,000 from middle position only to have George Lampert move all in for 95,000 from the big blind. Even though it was only 50,000 more to Gabaldon, he didn't seem excited to make the call; nonetheless, he did.
Showdown
Gabaldon | |
Lampert |
Lampert was in great shape and primed for a double, but the flop did give Gabaldon a gut-shot straight draw to go along with his nine. The turn was nothing special, but the river was as it paired Gabaldon and gave him the pot.
With Lampert's elimination in 28th place, we're down to the final three tables, which means it's time for a redraw. We're going to go get the new line up and a full round of chips counts, so stay tuned.

Sadly, we missed the action on the hand but got waved up on to the stage to capture the aftermath. The short story is Jacob Naquin now has 1.26 million. He held and beat Radwan Khuri's after the flop delivered two jacks.
We just saw Michael Hallen stacking a monster pot after eliminating David Rozas in 30th place. We didn't catch all the details, but we do know that Hallen held on a flop while Rozas had . The money went in and Hallen managed to spike a on the river to claim the pot, bumping him up to 900,000.

Justin Wainscott began the day as out chip leader by a decent margin; however, that doesn't always translate to success as he found out today. Wainscott lost a good portion of his stack after his failed to overcome the of an opponent.
Losing that hand knocked him back down to size, which is when Danny Alvarez swooped in and finished Wainscott off. It happened when for players took a flop and Wainscott checked from the small blind. He ultimately ended up check-raising all in for around 170,000 and was called by the of Alvarez. He got it in good, but a on the river sent a disappointed Wainscott out in 34th place; meanwhile, Alvarez took the chip lead with 950,000.
