Ferguson Crippled

Ferguson In Trouble
Ferguson In Trouble
Catching the action on the turn on a board of {K-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, Dariusz Paszkiewicz checked and Chris Ferguson fired 80,000. Paszkiewicz then check-raised by announcing he was all in.

It was a total of 245,000 more as Ferguson went deep into the tank. He thought for around five minutes as the rest of the room went onto a break.

It would cost most of Ferguson's stack but he eventually called and tabled {K-Hearts}{J-Spades} for two pair but Paszkiewicz held {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for a bigger two pair to leave Ferguson in bad shape.

The river was the {5-Clubs} and Paszkiewicz doubles as Ferguson is left crippled with just 4,000 in chips.

Persson Misses

On a flop of {9-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}, Magnus Persson ended up all in for just about 200,000 chips. Hac Dang was his opponent, and he made the call with the covering stack. Perrson tabled {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} for the nut flush draw, and Dang showed up {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}.

The turn would bring the {4-Clubs} and two more outs for the at-risk Persson. Unfortunately for him though, his Main Event would come to an end when the {7-Spades} hit the river, sending Dang the pot and sending Persson to the payout clerk.

Perner Cracks One Million

On a board of {5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{K-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, Bernard Perner checked the action to Bingjian Wu with nearly 300,000 in the pot.

Wu bet 100,000 and Perner, as is his style, took a long time to make a decision before making the call. When Wu showed {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}, Perner showed {K-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for two pair. That pot lifted Perner's stack to more than one million chips.

Zabib Stays Alive

After Reed Hansel opened with a raise, Marty Zabib moved all in for an additional 29,000. Hansel quickly called.

Hansel: {A-Spades}{6-Spades}
Zabib: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

With Zabib yelling out commentary to his friends on the rail twenty feet away, the board ran out {9-Spades}{Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

"I won the hand!" yelled Zabib. Indeed. He's up to 120,000.

Antoin Saout Threatens Seven Figures

Antoine Saout has roughly doubled his stack since the start of the day. He's now on about 903,000 chips after eliminating a short stack who had just joined the table. That player got his chips in the middle with {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} and ran into Saout's {K-Clubs} {k-Hearts}. A ten-high board sent Saout's opponent off to collect some cabbage.
