Eric Baldwin Makes a Move

Eric Baldwin moved all in preflop for 170,000 and Thanhdat Tran moved in for his remaining 71,000. Ben Sprengers, who had amassed quite a chip stack, shoved all in as well and everyone folded around.

Ben showed pocket jacks while Tran showed pocket queens. Everyone was quite startled when Baldwin showed {7-Clubs} {5-Spades}.

What was even more startling was the possibilities the flop presented when it fell {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Spades}. The turn brought the {7-Hearts} to give Baldwin trip sevens and both Tran and Sprengers fail to improve on the river.

Tran was eliminated while Sprengers is down to 400,000 after the hand. Baldwin is up to 420,000.

Rajesh Vohra Doubles Through Adam Geyer

Rajesh Vohra raised to 21,000 and Adam Geyer called in the small blind. The flop came {3-Spades} {A-Clubs} {4-Spades} and Vohra called Geyer's 15,000 bet. Both players checked the {10-Diamonds} on the turn and when the {K-Diamonds} fell on the river Geyer bet 65,000 and Vohra moved all in for 175,000 more.

Geyer made the call, Vohra showed {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} for the rivered set, and Geyer mucked. Vohra is now up to 420,000 and Geyer fell to 580,000.

Noah Boeken Eliminated

Noah Boeken was facing a raise preflop by Jacobo Fernandez when he moved all in for his remaining 100,000. Fernandez called and turned over pocket kings while Noah showed pocket jacks.

It was off to the flop, which fell {K-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}. Both players managed to flop sets, leaving Noah drawing for help. The {10-Hearts} fell on the river and Noah was left hoping for quads, which fell on the river...but for Fernandez with the {K-Spades}.

After the hand, Fernandez is up to 435,000.

Elezra thought the situation over and eventually called the clock on himself before mucking. Elezra is down to just 100,000.
