Dwan Approaches One Million

Stud-8

Catching the action on fourth street, we found Joe Cassidy betting out 20,000 and Kyle Loman making the call before Dwan two-bet. Cassidy called as Loman folded before Cassidy called a bet on fifth street. Sixth and seventh were checked down as both player's boards read as follows.

Cassidy: (X)(X) / {4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{A-Hearts} / (X)
Loman: (X)(X) / {8-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} (folded on fourth)
Dwan: (X)(X) / {8-Clubs}{9-Spades}{10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} / (X)

Cassidy flashed the {K-Hearts}, but it would be Dwan's {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{5-Hearts} that would see him scoop the pot to sit just shy of 1 million as Cassidy was left with just over six big bets.

A Millie for Ospina

One mirrion!
One mirrion!

Stud-8

Michael Binger brought-in and Daniel Ospina completed to 20,000. Once the action was back on Binger, he two-bet only to have Ospina three-bet. Once Binger called, he called a bet on fourth before raising on fifth as Ospina smooth-called. Sixth street was checked through, but when Binger was faced with a bet on seventh, he angrily made the call.

Binger: (X)(X) / {2-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / (X)
Ospina: (X)(X) / {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} / (X)

Ospina tabled his {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}{6-Spades} for kings-up, and when Binger flashed his {9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, he stated, "I had everything going!"

As Ospina collected the pot, he moved into the seven-figure club as Binger slips to 980,000 in chips.

Pescatori Can't Get Low on Binger

Level 21

Stud-8

Max Pescatori brought-in and Michael Binger completed as both Daniel Ospina and Pescatori called to see fourth street. Binger bet, and once Ospina folded, Pescatori called before folding to Binger's bet on fifth.

Pescatori: (X)(X) / {2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Binger: (X)(X) / {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Ospina: (X)(X) / {7-Spades}{K-Spades} (folded on fourth)

As Binger collected the pot to retain his stack over the 1.2 million-chip mark, Pescatori flashed his {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} in the hole.

Tom Dwan: (X)(X) / {8-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds} / (X)

PIcking up the action on fourth street, Kyle Loman, bet and was called on fourth, fifth and sixth. On seventh, both players checked. Lowman rolled over the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}{x-} for two pair, aces and fours. Dwan mucked his hand and lost the pot.

Ram Vaswani - 12th Place
Ram Vaswani - 12th Place

With everyone on Tom Dwan-watch, we unfortunately missed the exact details of Ram Vaswani's elimination.

Stud

Speaking to Tournament Director Robbie Thompson, he detailed to us that Michael Binger made sixes and deuces and Vaswani bricked out eventually making just an ace-high.

Vaswani heads to the rail in 12th place, and will collect $38,916 for his efforts to add to his $3.4 million in lifetime earnings, 16 WSOP cashes and one gold bracelet ($1,500 Limit Hold'em Shootout in 2007).

Loman Scoops a Big One from Dwan and Soulier

Razz

Tom Dwan: (X)(X) / {K-}{7-}{8-}{K-} / (X)
Fabrice Soulier: (X)(X) / {2-}{6-}{9-}{10-} / (X)
Kyle Loman: (X)(X) / {A-}{9-}{8-}{7-} / (X)

Tom Dwan brought in with the king and then Fabrice Soulier completed. Kyle Loman made the call and Dwan also splashed in the chips to see fourth street. On fourth street, Soulier had the best hand showing and led the betting with both Dwan and Loman calling. On fifth, Soulier bet again and both players called.

On sixth street it was Loman who bet and got called by both players. Then on seventh, everyone checked.

Loman turned over {9-}{6-}{4-} for an eighty-seven. Dwan gave his famous "look to the sky" and rolled his eyes with his mouth open while tossing his hand into the muck. Soulier also mucked and Loman won the pot.

Erik Sagstrom - 13th Place

Razz

Andrey Zaichenko two-bet on third street before Erik Sagstrom three-bet to 60,000. The original player that completed folded as Zaichenko made the call before calling a bet on fourth. Zaichenko would then take the lead on fifth and sixth street with Sagstrom calling on both occasions; with sixth finding himself all in for his last 30,000.

Zaichenko: {A-}{6-} / {4-}{K-}{3-}{5-}
Sagstrom: {6-}{3-} / {4-}{9-}{K-}{6-}

With Sagstrom drawing dead, he tossed his hole cards at the muck, only to be told that they had to be revealed.

Zaichenko caught a {10-} on seventh, and Sagstrom a {9-} to see the Swedish player exit in 13th place for a $31,719 payday as Zaichenko moved to 735,000 in chips.
