Manuel Cadilhe opened to 55,000 and Taylor Larkin made the call.
The flop fell down and Cadilhe continued with a bet of 85,000 before Larkin moved all in.
"How much?" asked Cadilhe.
"He has you covered" responded the dealer.
The players then forced the dealer to count the amount of chips that Larkin had as it possibly effected the decision that Cadilhe had to make.
As the dealer shook his head in frustration, he cut down Larkin's stack to amount to 903,000 before Cadilhe made the call for his 505,000-chip stack.
Cadilhe:
Larkin:
The on the turn sealed the deal, and when the landed on the river, Cadilhe hit the rail in 17th place for a $21,765 payday as Larkin soared to 1,530,000 in chips.
David Ventura had let himself blind down to just 34,000 at the time, but when it folded aorund to him on the button, he decided to make his move and trickled in his remaining chips. Monster stack Taylor Larkin dipped into his ocean of chips to make the call.
Larkin:
Ventura:
Board:
A deuce on the river keeps Ventura alive; he's back up to the 90,000 mark.
Taylor Larkin raised the minimum on the button and Karl Fenton defended his big blind. On the flop, Larkin continuation bet 53,000 and, after a brief pause, Fenton made the call.
After both players had checked the flop, Fenton reached out for a column of orange chips on the river and bet what appeared to be 150,000, although I think the dealer announced it as 125,000 as there was one green 25,000 chip concealed a couple of chips down.
With little hesitation, Larkin announced all-in.
Perplexed by the move, Fenton exhaled and sat back in his chair before glancing back down at his chips. It didn't take him too long to make the call, however, clearly believing that his opponent's line didn't make sense for the rivered flush. However, although Larkin didn't have clubs, he did reveal for turned trips, which was more than enough to pick up both the pot and scalp. He is now your new chip leader with 2,150,000.
On the last hand before the break, Taylor Larkin raised it up to 40,000 from the cut-off and big blind Tyler Cornell pushed all in. Larking folded the face-up. Cornell showed the with a cheeky grin.
