Goldstein Bets, Collects

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

With the board showing {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and around 165,000 in the middle, Nathan Goldstein pushed out an all-in bet of 114,000 and Samuel Taylor went into the tank for over a minute deciding what to do.

Finally Taylor folded, asking Goldstein if he'd show one card and Goldstein turned down the offer. "Better than ace-jack" surmised one at the table. "Better than ace-queen," said another with confidence.

Whatever Goldstein had, the bet he made was enough to win him the pot.

"You Lose"

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Fredrik Halling limped in from the small blind, and Marvin Rettenmaier popped it to 33,000 from the big blind.

"Big raise," Halling said, but he called anyway.

The flop came down {2-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and Halling check-called 28,000. He check-called 46,000 after the {2-Clubs} turned, and the river brought a {k-Diamonds}. Halling checked once more. After some thought, Rettenmaier checked behind him.

"You lose," Halling said, turning over {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a boat. Retternmaier mucked his hand, and the two exchanged some banter about how the river may have cost Halling some value.

Dattani Loses Some Before Table Break

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Umang Dattani
Umang Dattani

Umang Dattani and Eli Heath were involved in a substantial pot just before the two broke tables and moved.

On a flop of {6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} with about 50,000 chips in the pot already, Heath led for 27,000. In the next seat Dattani reraised to 70,000 which put Joseph Hertzog in the tank. Eventually Hertzog frustratedly mucked his hand putting the action back on Heath. He tanked for a bit but eventually called.

The turn was the {10-Spades} and both players checked to see the {5-Hearts} on the river where both players checked again. "Nines," Dattani said.

Heath did him one better though and showed his {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush draw that turned into a pair. That was good enough to take down the pot just before the two players moved tables.

Rivet's River Decision

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

After leading out for 65,000 into a pot of around 90,000 on the river of a {j-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades} board, Guillaume Rivet was faced with a raise to 185,000 from Dutchman and birthday boy Jorn Walthaus. The French Canadian opted to call the raise, then mucked when Walthaus showed {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a turned flush.

Steinberg Pushes Allis All Out

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Max Steinberg
Max Steinberg

We came to the table on the river, with Max Steinberg and Mike Allis in the hand and the board reading {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Allis pushed all in, and Steinberg called immediately. He tabled {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a flush, and Allis angrily slammed his cards to the table face up, showing {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} for ace high.

Steinberg now has 1.6 million in chips, and Allis made his way to the payout window.

Le Busts in Coin Flip

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Tuan Le
Tuan Le

Ryan Snickles raised it up to 16,000 from early position, and Tuan Le moved all in for his final 105,000 from middle position. It got back to Snickles, who made the call to put Le at risk.

Le: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Snickles: {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Le managed to fade the flop, as it came down {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. However, he couldn't fade the {a-Spades} on the turn. Le was now hoping for one of the two ten's left in the deck, but the river gave Snickles an unneeded two pair, {j-Diamonds}.

A disappointed Le headed for the exits, while Snickles is up to 425,000 after taking that hand down.

Ben Cherif Chomps on Vegimite Sandwich

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Australian Nino Marotta opened the cutoff to 19,000 and Rachid Ben Cherif called from the big blind to see a {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop fall.

Ben Cherif checked and Marotta moved all in for his last 106,000. Ben Cherif looked a little puzzled by Marotta's move, but then made the call to put him at risk.

Marotta: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Ben Cherif: {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The turn and river landed the {6-Clubs} and {5-Hearts} to see Ben Cherif make a straight to send the Aussie to the rail as he moved to roughly 840,000 in chips.

Geshkenbein Eliminates Cody

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jake Cody
Jake Cody

Vladimir Geshkenbein had been playfully targeting Jake Cody for a knockout since Cody was moved to his table during the last level. Just moments ago, Geshkenbein finally got his man.

Cody was all-in preflop for 29,000 with {A-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Geshkenbein had the Brit dominated with {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. After the board ran out {5-Spades}{Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, the two players shook hands and Cody began his walk to the payout desk.

Guagenti Four-Bet Jams On Jones and Rivet

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

From under the gun, Nick Guagenti opened with a raise to 17,000. Ryan Jones called from middle position, then Guillaume Rivet reraised to 48,000 from the hijack seat. Play folded back over to Guagenti, and he announced that he was all in, a bet worth right around 300,000. After Jones folded, Rivet also folded, and Guagenti won the pot.
