We found Adam Junglen moving all in on an 
flop. It took his opponent a long time to make the call, but make it he did, and Junglen made an "uh-oh" sort of face as they turned the cards over.
Junglen: 
for nothing more than overcards
Eventual Caller: 
for an overpair
There was a glimmer of flushy hope for Junglen on the 
turn but he was already standing to leave, and the blank 
on the river sealed the deal.
Jeff Fenech, the Australian boxing champ, just took a nasty body blow. He had an opponent covered and all in on the turn with the board showing 
. Fenech had 
for the straight plus a flush draw, while his opponent held 
.
The river brought the 
, though, giving Fenech's opponent a boat and sending him down to just 17,000 chips.
Fenech did double up on the following hand, however, and thus is still swinging with about 35,000.
David Benyamine is up 680,000 after eliminating a short stack, all the chips going in on the turn of a 
board with the Frenchman's 
evading a paired board against 
.
A player opened to 10,000, and after one flatter, Dag Palovic made it 40,000. The initial raiser announced all in for 187,600, and after the flatter snap-folded, Palovic announced a call without much thought. But he hated to see that his 
had run squarely into 
. The board came 
, and Palovic paid him off. He was left with just 70,000 in his favorite five-high stacks.
We arrived at the table of Yevgeniy Timoshenko to see him all in for his last 73,800 chips with around double that in the pot already. We could only assume it was a re-raise on a flop of 
against a player who had to momentarily cease buying up all of the black 100-denomination chips to give the decision some thought.
He eventually let it go as Timoshenko gave a wry smile. Timoshenko is up to 210,000.
You may have seen Matt Affleck on television. If you watched ESPN's coverage of the 2009 Main Event, there was some decent coverage of Affleck as the chip leader on Day 4.
Well, he's at it again this year; Affleck just won a pot to move up to 1,075,000, and we've got him in second place overall, just behind Duy Le by a very narrow hair.
Affleck, in his own words, blew the 'biggest shot of his life' last year, and he was eliminated on Day 6 in 81st place after two day of slipping and sliding down the board. It's not every year you get a second chance to lead the Main Event with three days left, but Affleck has that here in 2010 -- and all eyes will be on him to see what adjustments he's made over the course of the last year.
Mark Teltscher raised it up to 11,000 from the button, only for the big blind to three-bet to 28,000. Teltscher made the call.
Both players then checked down the 
board, Teltscher taking it down with versus 
.
"I knew you weren't three-betting light," commented Teltscher, "but I thought you played your hand well."
Teltscher up to 345,000.
Well, really it's Mistaken Identity Of The Day.
Player 1: "Is that a Liberty Bell?" - pointing at his opponent's glass card protector
Player 2: "No. It's an elephant."
Spectacles FTW!
Peter Rho was all in for his last 180,000 chips in a classic cooler when he ran his 
into the 
of Max Gurevich in a preflop clash.
The board of 
was king-less and Rho was left chip-less. Gurevich on the other hand is now up to 610,000.
Folding the winner on the river is one of the most painful -- and expensive -- mistakes a poker player can make. We came to Jesper Hougaard's table to see the Dane involved in a big pot. There had been some pre-flop raising and a bet that was called on a flop of 
. Both Hougaard and his opponent checked the turn, bringing the action to the river, which paired the board. Hougaard had first action and bet 60,000. His opponent raised to 162,000.
"I had you an ace-king the whole time," said Hougaard. He agonized over his decision for several minutes before open-folding 
for a full house, jacks full of kings. Hougaard begged his opponent to show as well. That player obliged, but he didn't open ace-king. He showed for a very gutsy bluff.
Hougaard is down to 550,000.
