We don't know exactly how the action went, but we know three people were all in and at risk of being eliminated by Glenn Woodcock.
Woodcock:
Opponent 1:
Opponent 2:
Opponent 3:
The flop came and changed nothing. The on the turn allowed for the reality to sink in on all the players. Opponent 3 pleaded jokingly for no funny business, but his pleas fell on deaf ears as the landed on the river and Woodcock knocked out three players.
We don't know how exactly the action went preflop, but we know there was at least a raise and a call by Marilynn Kroon or Thomas C Geist. The flop came and Kroon checked, prompting an all in bet from Geist. Kroon called and looked to double up as she was the shorter stacked of the two.
Kroon:
Geist:
The on the turn put the advantage further in Kroon's favor and the on the river sealed the deal and Kroon was awarded the double up.
A player in early position made it 8,500 and action folded around to Michel Abecassis who three-bet all in. The early position player called and was at risk.
Abecassis:
Opponent:
The board came and Abecassis came out on top and now sits around 180,000.
