Tommy Le opened to 2,700, Chad Winters called from the blinds, and the flop fell . Winters checked, Le continued for 3,500, and Winters check-raied to 8,000. Le tanked momentarily, then moved all in for around 40,000 effective.
Winters crossed his arms in thought, and after mulling the decision over for the better part of two minutes, he called.
Le:
Winters:
Winters was in a world of hurt, and did not improve on the turn (), or the river (), and was eliminated from the tournament.
Life is good for Le - he now has around 175,000 chips.
From middle position, a player opened with a raise to 3,000. The hijack seat made the call before play folded around to Dan Shak in the small blind. Shak three-bet and made it 13,000 to go. The big blind and original raiser folded before the hijack seat made the call to see the flop.
The flop came down and Shak fired 15,000. His opponent called almost right away and the dealer placed the out on the turn. Shak fired 20,000 this time and his opponent called, but took a few seconds before acting on this street.
The river completed the board with the . It was an interesting card because not only did it bring a fourth diamond, but it paired the board. Shak motioned his hand and waved it over his chips, announcing, "All in." His opponent then began to tank.
The player sat in the tank for about four or five minutes before finally folding his hand. Shak gave another look back at his cards and then pushed them forward, not showing the table. He's up over 180,000 now.
Action opened with the player under the gun raising to 3,300. It folded around to a player in late position who moved all in for 11,200. Brad Garrett then moved all in over the top from the big blind and the all in player could only say "Crap".
As action moved back to the original raiser, Garrett kept with his usual barrage of quips.
"Come on circus boy! Call it!" Garrett said, but then followed up with "Wait, if you call it how are you gonna afford another tattoo?". Eventually the player folded face up. Garrett's cards and his opponent's cards were turned over:
Garrett:
Opponent:
"Put a king out there!" yelled Garret. The deck decided to comply with his wishes, as the flop fell . The rail erupted with cheers as Garrett took the lead in the hand. The turn brought the and Garrett was able to make trip kings when the hit the river. His opponent made the way to the rail and could only say "I hate this game" with a smile.
The player under the gun raised to 2,900 and received calls from the player on the button and Shaun Deeb in the big blind. The flop came down and Deeb checked to preflop aggressor who bet 4,400. The third player folded but Deeb made the call.
The turn was the and this time both players checked. The river was the and Deeb led out for 8,100 which his opponent called. Deeb tabled for a pair of kings and it was good enough to take the pot.
We caught up with the action to see Olivier Busquet push out a bet of 30,000 on a board of . His opponent grabbed a stack of orange, 5,000 denomination chips and moved it into the middle. The bet totaled 85,000 which was enough to put Busquet all in.
Busquet pondered over the decision and looked noticeably distraught. Eventually he mucked his hand and his opponent quickly and triumphantly flipped up for jack-high. As his opponent stacked his chips, Busquet could do nothing but shake his head.
We found quite a large pot at the river between Geoff Rasmussen and Tuan Vo. The board read and there was already more than 60,000 in the pot. Vo had a 60,000 bet in front of him and Rasmussen was deep in the tank.
With the camera crews descending on the table, foreign press crowding and nearby rubbernecking neighbors Rasmussen took his hat off and said, "I just have no clue what to do."
He was restacking his robust stack and finally tossed out a call. Vo turned over for full house and Rasmussen mucked. Vo leaped to the top of the leaderboard with 400,000.
