Limped Pot

MarcC

A rare limped pot saw Andy Seth and Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos go to a {J-Clubs}

flop. Seth leads out for 70,000 and is called by Panayote before the {3-Spades}

comes on the turn. A 220,000 pot from Seth was enough to end it there.

It folded around to Dean Hamrick in the small blind who raised to 180,000; after a pause, Glenn McCaffrey called in the big.

It didn't go much beyond that, though -- Hamrick bet out 250,000 on the {Q-Clubs}

flop, and McCaffrey swiftly passed.

High Card Wins

MarcC

Andy Seth raised from UTG and was called by Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos and Michael Greco in the BB before the flop came {6-Diamonds}

.

Seth continued his aggression with a 220,000 bet and only Greco called. The turn {5-Hearts}

and river

is checked through. Seth takes it with {K-Spades}

high as Greco can only show a busted flush draw with {J-Spades}

.

Greco Finds a Hand; Promptly Doubles

[user46392]

Michael Greco raised to a barely-over-the-minimum 130,000 and Pete Vilandos called him from the big blind.

Flop: {3-Clubs}

Vilandos checked and Greco bet 200,000. Call.

Turn: {9-Hearts}

Vilandos checked again and now Greco made it 250,000 to go -- only for Vilandos to announce all in to cover Greco. Greco now had a real decision -- he wandered off for a moment, then came back to the table and stared at Vilandos for some time.

Then he called for his last 500,000.

Vilandos: {K-Diamonds}

Greco:

"Hold! HOOLLLLLDDD!" pleaded the Greco railers (Mr Hougaard was allowed back in at the break).

River: {2-Diamonds}

Greco doubles to over 2 million.

Pete Keeps Up the Aggression

MarcC

Despite losing that last pot, Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos keeps up the aggression by three betting Andy Seth. After he's called, he fires a large bet on the flop which makes Seth lay it down.

Things are heating up here.

Relentless

MarcC

The very next hand Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos raised it up and was called by Dean Hamrick before the flop came {J-Diamonds}

. Vilandos led out for 205,000 and was called before he bet 475,000 on the {8-Hearts}

turn. Too much for Hamrick and he folds.

Dean Hamrick Eliminated in 5th Place ($132,380)

MarcC

A brave Dean Hamrick raised it up to 150,000 into the big blind of Panayote 'Pete' Vilandos, who continued his uber-aggressive streak by moving all in. Hamrick thought for a while and then called off his last 980,000.

Panayote -- {9-Clubs}
