Hizer Wins It Back With Double Through Pham

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Action folded to Paul Hizer, who shoved from the small blind for 1,500,000 chips, less than 8 big blinds. Hong Pham called from the big blind and players flipped their cards.

Paul Hizer: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Hong Pham: {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Hizer hit a pair of kings on the flop and, after losing a big pot a couple of hands ago, he chipped back up to over 3 million.

Action folded around to Paul Hizer, who shoved from the button for 3,200,000. Hong Pham was looking down at her cards in the small blind and also pushed all in.

Matthew Gray, however, was in the big blind. He called and three players were all in for a dramatic and potentially game-changing pot.

Paul Hizer: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}
Matthew Gray: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Hong Pham: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, bringing no improvement for any players. Gray's pocket aces held up to give him a huge triple up to 9,700,000, second in chips.

Hizer, meanwhile, was eliminated from the tournament in fourth place for £34,500.

Gray Calls Phams Bluff to Pull Closer

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Matthew Gray raise to 500,000 from the button with {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Hong Pham called in the big blind with {6-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

The flop came {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Pham checked and Gray bet 300,000, which Pham called. The turn came the {2-Spades} and both players checked.

The river came the {8-Clubs}. Pham had few options left if she wanted to take the pot and she did opt to make the bluff, betting out for 1,200,000. Gray did find the call and his pocket sevens won the pot.

Level 32 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Action folded around to Jonathan McCann, who had been shoving light for several orbits. He shoved again from the small blind for 2,900,000 chips.

Hong Pham was in the big blind and correctly made the call with {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Players flipped their cards and McCann was at risk once again.
