Vedes Doubles Through the Decano

Tommy Vedes, who has taken a couple of hits as of late, moved all in from the hijack for 100,000, which Thiago "xTHEDECANOx" Nishijima called from the big blind after tanking for a bit.

Showdown
Vedes: {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Nishijima: {K-Spades}{8-Clubs}

Vedes was ahead with ace high, and the {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop kept him there. The {9-Diamonds} turn meant Nishijima needed either a king or eight on the river to dispatch his foe, but it wasn't in the cards as the {3-Diamonds} peeled off on the river. With that, Vedes is up to 224,000 while Nishijima dropped to 170,000.

Conway Eliminates Another; Raskin Latest Victim

Thomas Conway opened to 34,000 from early position and action folded around to Micah Raskin in the big blind, who moved all in for his last 250,000. Conway snap-called and hands were revealed.

Conway: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Raskin: {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{2-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Conway sent Raskin to the rail with a set of queens.

Conway is now up to 1,320,000.

Vedes Takes Another Hit; Doubles Ngai

After action folded to him in the small blind, Sam Ngai raised to 32,000 only to have Tommy Vedes move all in from the big. Ngai snap-called off for 182,000 total and was in great shape to double.

Showdown
Ngai: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Vedes: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The {6-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop was lackluster, and the {6-Clubs} turn left Vedes drawing dead. The {5-Hearts} was put out on the river, and Ngai was pushed the 380,000 pot.

Conway Eliminates Garcia

Andres Garcia on Day 2.
Andres Garcia on Day 2.

Jason Wheeler opened to 34,000 from early position and directly behind him, Andres Garcia moved all in for his last 300,000. Action folded around to Thomas Conway on the button, who moved all in himself. Everyone else, including Wheeler, got out of the way and hands were revealed.

Conway: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Garcia: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

Garcia was primed to double; however, the {10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} board left Conway with the nut-flush and Garcia was sent to the rail.

Conway is up to 1,070,000.

Dato's Straight Good Against Vedes

Action folded to Tommy Vedes in the cutoff and he raised to 35,000. Andrea Dato was in the big blind and opted to defend, which lead to both players checking the {9-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop. When the {J-Hearts} turned, Dato took the initiative and led out for 46,000, Vedes called, and the {K-Clubs} was put out on the river.

This time Dato came out with a bet of 105,000, which Vedes called. Dato rolled over {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a straight, and it was good as Vedes simply mucked.
