Pierre Neuville had raised all in on the river of a board for an additional 50,500 over what looked like a bet of 25,000. His opponent was tanking for several minute before asking, "Do you have a set...full house?"
Neuville didn't say anything but his opponent made the call and turned over , Neuville flipped for the full house and scooped a big pot to move over the 200,000 mark.
Paul Volpe raised to 7,500 from early position and Kevin Williams made the call in late position. to see a very dry looking flop of . Both players checked the flop before Volpe also checked the turn and Williams bet 12,000, Volpe called before also checking the river and Williams now fired 30,000. Volpe snap-called and Williams flipped for trip nines.
Vople, "He has a set? Sick, I have aces up..." flashing his cards before sending them into the muck.
On a flop of Matt LaGarde pushed all in and got a call from a player at his table with 86,000 behind. \
LaGarde showed and his opponent had If LaGarde had won the pot it would've put him over the 400,000 chip mark and make him a massive chip leader. Unfortunately for him however, the came on the turn and the river was no help.
LaGarde still has quite a few chips with 210,000, but I'm sure he's thinking about what could've been had he held in that enormous pot.
Shane Schleger and another player at his table got it all in preflop for virtually identical stacks. Schleger showed and his opponent showed . The player started calling for payouts and getting up from the table, assuming he was covered and wouldn't hit. He was right about not hitting as the board came down , but he had about 3,000 left after they counted it all out.
Either way, Schleger moves up to about 115,000 and is well above average
Terrence Chan just pulled out a pretty impressive resuck on the river with against when the board came for trips on the river. Chan even felt bad enough that he went all the way around the table to shake his victim's hand.
We came into a hand on the flop where Vitaly Lunkin checked on a board of and a middle position player bet 9,800. Lunkin called and the two saw the turn. Again, Lunkin checked and the player bet out 14,700. Lunkin went into the tank for a little bit before finally calling.
The river came and Lunkin checked one last time. Again, the player bet out, this time for 25,500. Lunkin tanked for quite a while this time before finally sending his cards to the muck. Lunkin has lost about half of his stack from his high point and he's below 70,000 now
After a raise and an all in, Imre Leibold flat-called the 30,000 shove only to have the player behind him repush all in and then the initial raiser moved all in as well.
Leibold tanked and folded what he said was queens, only to be shown by the original raiser who covered, for the short stack and for the other even shorter stack.
The board came and (of course) the worst hand almost quadrupled up while the unfortunate player with aces was eliminated.
