Break Time

Dinner break was scheduled for now. Some tables are taking it, some are just taking a 10 minute break and returning to finish off their matches. Two tournament clocks will be running in the room. Our clock will continue with the players returning soon.

Winner on Table 28

Another cash for Monnette
Another cash for Monnette
A lot of preflop action occurred between Jon Monnette and his opponent before all the chips went in on {6-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs} flop. Monnette had the best of it with {A-Spades} {J-Diamonds} to his opponent's {K-Spades} {J-Spades}. The turn {2-Spades} and river {J-Hearts} came before Monnette was confirmed as the winner and will return tomorrow.

Dead . . . Or Not

William Blanda pushed all in on a flop of {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and was called by his opponent tabling {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

Blanda sheepishly rolled over his {3-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and stated, "I'm dead!"

The turn fell the {Q-Clubs} and river the {A-Spades} to see both players chop it up. "Oh my god, it's a chop!" screamed Blanda, before continuing, "I guess I'm not dead" as the dealer split up the pot.

Winner on Table 26

Just like that Joe Serock eliminated Ivan Demidov and the other player remaining at his table to progress to tomorrow's round.

Once Demidov had fallen Serock got it in with {A-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} against {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} after a raise, reraise, all in and call preflop. The board ran {9-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {8-Spades} {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts}.

Montgomery Doubles (Again)

Facing a raise to 1,600 and a reraise to 6,200, Scott Montgomery shipped it in for 29,000. The original player moved all in to force an eventual fold and it was two to the flop.

Montgomery: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The flop fell down {5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts} to keep Montgomery in the lead, but when the {A-Hearts} fell on the turn he would need to catch a heart or four to stay alive.

Just as quickly as the ace had fallen, the {4-Spades} landed on the river to shift Montgomery a double up to over 31,000 and change.
