Marchal Cracks Pochedly's Kings

Joseph Marchal was all in for his last 224,000 holding {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, and he was dominated by Ryan Pochedly's pocket kings. The {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop was harmless, but the turn and river came {10-Hearts}, {j-Diamonds} respectively, and Marchal doubled to 455,000 with Broadway.

Pochedly's stack slipped to 160,000.

Negreanu Moves All In

Action folded to Gwennael Grandmougin on the button, and he raised it up to 25,000. Daniel Negreanu called from the big blind, and the flop came down {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Negreanu checked to Grandmougin, who fired out 28,000. Negreanu thought for about 20 seconds before check raising all in for 187,000 on top. It only took Grandmougin a few seconds to fold, and Negreanu took the pot to get some much needed chips.

Schenider Runs Into Cheong's Pocket Rockets

We didn't catch the betting action, but we do know that Peter Schneider was all in preflop for around 325,000 with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and ran smack dab into the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} of 2010 November Niner Joseph Cheong.

The {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop gave Schneider a gut-shot straight draw, but neither the {6-Diamonds} turn nor {J-Spades} river failed to complete it.
