Bolotin Sitting Pretty

Alex Bolotin got his chips all in on a flop of {4-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {9-Clubs} with {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds}, and he had a hammer lock on a double up as Kyle Huffman sheepishly tabled {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}.

The {Q-Spades} on the turn locked up the pot, and the {10-Spades} river spelled a big double up for Bolotin. He's up to 290,000, twice as nice as before. Huffman is left with just 32,000.

Huffman Can't Fade Durrrr

On the very next hand, Kyle Huffman got his 32,000-chip remainder into the pot with {A-Spades} {9-Clubs} preflop. Tom Dwan looked him up with {A-Diamonds} {4-Hearts}, and the situation was favorable for Huffman to earn his first double and start climbing back into this thing.

Everything was still rosy through the turn as the first four community cards came {J-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {10-Clubs}. Dwan works pretty well with two outs, though, and the {4-Spades} peeled off the deck on fifth street to give him the pot and the knockout.

Huffman has been eliminated, and Dwan surges to 252,000.

Diamonds for Durrrr

With the board reading {4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Spades}{K-Diamonds}, Tom "durrrr" Dwan led for 26,000 and Alex Bolotin called.

The river brought the {7-Diamonds}, and again Dwan led, but for 62,500 this time. Bolotin called and quickly mucked when Dwan opened {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a rivered flush.

Dwan is up to 270,000 chips while Bolotin is down to 200,000

Um, a New Chip Leader Emerges...

Amnon Filippi opened with a raise, Tom Dwan three-bet, Filippi four-bet, and "durrrr" five-bet shoved. Filippi made the call, putting himself all in, and putting a huge pot in the middle of the table. The news was not at all what Dwan was hoping for:

Filippi: {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}
Dwan: {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

The flop, however, was just what the durrrr ordered. It came out {10-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {5-Diamonds}, binking his two-outer and pulling him into a huge lead in the hand with two to come.

The {4-Clubs} on fourth street put Filippi one foot out the door, and the {A-Hearts} river ushered him off to the payout desk with a big frown to keep him company.

Filippi's out, and Dwan has exploded to the top of the chip counts with an impressive 642,000 chips.

Dwan Claims Another Victim

Under the gun and short-stacked, an unknown (and now irrelevant) player moved all in for about 60,000 total. Dwan made an isolating reraise, and he got himself heads up with a chance at another knockout.

Showdown
Dwan: {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}
Opponent: {6-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}

There was no funny stuff on the board that came {2-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {2-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {K-Spades}, and that's another player out to Dwan. He's up close to 750,000 now and really starting to tighten the screws on his table.
