Hand #60 – Scott Sitron

The button is with David Daneshgar. From the cutoff, Scott Sitron raised it up to 125,000 before Daneshgar made it 405,000 to go. Sitron instantly moved all in and Daneshgar quickly folded as Sitron rakes in a healthy pot.

Hand #63 – Farzad Rouhani

The button is with Matt Matros. Our current short stack Dan Heimiller raised to 150,000 from the cutoff, and Farzad Rouhani riffled his chips for a minute or so before raising to 275,000 from the small blind. Scott Sitron folded from the big blind, and the action was back on Heimiller.

He had 460,000 left -- pretty much a push or fold situation. After thinking a bit, Heimiller let it go.

Hand #64 – Matt Matros Eliminated in 6th Place ($148,875)

Matt Matros - 6th Place
Matt Matros - 6th Place
The button is with Farzad Rouhani. Corwin Cole opened with a raise from under the gun to 125,000 and Matt Matros moved all in for 690,000 in total. Cole quickly made the call and the cards were tabled.

Cole: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Matros: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The flop of {4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{9-Spades} was huge for Cole giving him a pair of nines and nut flush draw to leave Matros drawing thin.

The turn landed the {10-Hearts} to complete the flush and leave Matros drawing dead.

Another heart arrived on the river with the {J-Hearts} to eliminate Matt Matros in 6th place for $148,875.

Hand #67 – Farzad Rouhani

Corwin Cole raised to 125,000 from the button, and Farzad Rouhani called from the big blind.

The flop came {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Rouhani checked, Cole bet 175,000, and Rouhani called. The turn was the {A-Clubs}, pairing the board. Rouhani carefully counted out 13 green chips -- a bet of 325,000. Cole studied the board a short while, then let it go.

Hand #68 – Dan Heimiller

The button is with Dan Heimiller. The action folded to Heimiller who thought for a few moments before moving all in for 360,000. The blinds fold and Heimiller collects the blinds and antes.
