It's the last redraw of the event, so it's an important one. We've reached the mothership, and the cards are back in the air. Here's how the unofficial final table of ten is laid out:
From the button Felipe Montenegro went all in for 260,000 on the button. Vanessa Peng was in the small blind and reraised all in. Adam Geyer quickly folded his big blind and Montenegro was officially at risk.
Montenegro:
Peng:
The flop all but did Montenegro in when it came . The turn was the which made it official and the river was a meaningless . With that elimination we have made it to our unofficial final table and we will head over to the ESPN set to play it out.
Adam Geyer opened to 60,000 before the flop, and Mike Fosco three-bet shoved for 240,000. Next door, Arnaud Esquevin shoved over the top, and Geyer folded to let the two go at it with Fosco at risk. He was in bad shape.
Showdown
Fosco:
Esquevin:
The flop brought salvation for the underpair as it came . Fosco's set improved on the turn, and the river secured his double back over 500,000.
With that two-outer going against him, Esquevin was left with just 155,000 chips. Those all went in shortly thereafter, Esquevin taking his stand with . Adam Geyer woke up with in the big blind, and the board means Arnaud Esquevin is our 12th place finisher. That's good for close to $50,000.
In a battle of the blinds, Vanessa Peng raised to 57,000 first into the pot, and Adam Geyer three-bet shoved from the big blind. Peng almost couldn't believe what she heard, double-checking with the dealer before snap-calling with . Geyer tabled with a bit of a frustrated wince.
The board was clean for Peng, coming , and the jacks hold to double her back to average. She had 478,000 to start the hand, so she's got 980,000 now and a new lease on her tournament life. Geyer is still above average, but that one hurt enough to knock him back to 1.35 million.
In the past couple of orbits, Andrew Savitz has cold shipped his stack of between 15 to 20 big blinds.
In this past hand, he cold shipped 447,000 from the button and Arnaud Esquevin began to tank in the big blind. After about five minutes he announced a call and tabled . Savitz showed and had his opponent in trouble. Savitz burried his head in his arms at the table, as he has done for every all in today, and refused to look as the board was dealt out.
The dealer placed the out on the table and just like that, Savitz has 920,000. Unfortunately for Esquevin, he is left with just 180,000.
Antonin Teisseire raised to 54,000 to open the pot, and Darryl Ronconi flatted on the button. Jim Routos decided to come along from the small blind, too, and it was three-handed to the flop.
It brought , and Routos took the lead with a bet of 125,000. Teisseire methodically stacked together a raise, and he slid out 325,000. It left him with 425,000 behind. That folded Ronconi pretty quickly, though he did pause to check how much Routos was playing first. Routos tanked and folded, too, and Teisseire showed his as the dealer pushed him the pot.
Routos got all wide-eyed and stared up at the ceiling. He seemed content with his fold as he nodded to his rail, but also a bit surprised to see what he was seeing. "Wow," he said quietly.
"WOW!" Teisseire bellowed in return, climbing up over a million chips to 1.085 with that nice pot.
