Racener Speeds Ahead

John Racener
John Racener

John Racener raised to 5,600 from middle position, and Ludovic Lacay and Brian Rast both called to see a three-handed flop.

It came down {7-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}, and the table checked to Rast. He fired out 13,500 only to see Racener check-raise to 60,000 straight. That folded Lacay, but Rast called to see a turn card.

It was the {8-Clubs}, and Racener led out with a covering all-in shove. Rast called all in for 68,000, and he was at risk of elimination as the cards were turned up:

Racener: {A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}
Rast: {A-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {7-Clubs}

It was two pair for Rast that had him in the lead, but Racener had a myriad of river outs for the knockout. The {2-Clubs} that filled out the board was one of those out, and his aces up deal a crushing blow to Rast, running him out of the room.

Racener is all the way up to 360,000 after that big pot.

More Chips For Dwan

With a raise to 3,200 from David Benyamine from under the gun and three callers, Tom Dwan decided to raise the pot which reduced the field by two as Benyamine and Tony Paino made the call.

They saw a flop of {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} and Dwan led out with a bet of 50,000 which was enough to take it down.

Dwan is up to 175,000 with Benyamine at 148,000.

Paino Takes a Hit

We just caught the tail end of the betting action, but Tom Dwan was all in after a flop of {K-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}, and chip leader Antonio Paino put him to the test. With close to 150,000 chips in the middle of the table, the cards were on their backs:

Dwan: {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} (second pair, flush draw, gusthot straight draw)
Paino: {3-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} (top pair, gutshot straight draw)

The turn was the {10-Spades} to improve Dwan to the king-high straight and put him one card from a double up. Paino needed to fill up or catch a jack to eliminate "durrrr", but the river {6-Spades} was a safe blank, doubling the dangerous Dwan.

He's up to 145,000 now, and Paino is still doing just fine with his stack of 240,000.

Heimiller Squeezes Aces

With a raise to 3,000 from the hijack position, Ryan Aiken called on the button before Dan Heimiller put on the squeeze to make it 13,200 to go. The original raiser folded as Aiken decided to make the call.

The flop landed {3-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Heimiller fired out 13,000. Aiken made the call. The turn fell the {J-Diamonds} and both players checked to see the {9-Spades} complete the board on the river. Heimiller fired a bet of 16,000 and Aiken made a crying call.

Heimiller showed {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for top set which was good as Aiken mucked. Heimiller is up to 150,000.

Baker Takes It With River Bet

Tony Paino raised to 4,000 from the cutoff and found calls from David Benyamine on the button and David Baker in the big blind.

They saw a three-way flop of {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} and all three players checked. The turn brought the {J-Spades} and Baker led out with a bet of 10,400. Paino made the call as Benyamine stepped aside.

The river was the {Q-Clubs} and Baker fired again for 23,200 which was enough to take it down as Paino released. Baker is up to 78,000 with Paino still our chip leader on 352,000.

Pimentel Stacks Schulman

On a flop of {2-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Clubs}, Leandro Pimentel fired a bet of 8,500 before Nick Schulman re-raised to 34,000. Pimentel re-raised all in and Schulman called off his last chips.

Pimentel: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Schulman: {A-Spades}{4-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

Schulman had straight and flush possibilities as Pimentel's kings were in the lead, and it remained that way on the {5-Clubs} turn and {J-Hearts} river.

Schulman is out as Pimentel stacks up 165,000.
