Porter Hits Three Outer To Double

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

JC Tran raised it up to 52,000 under the gun +1, and Oliver Price reraised to 121,000 next to act. It folded around to Rep Porter on the button, and he moved all in for his last 434,000. Tran got out of the way, but Price quickly called.

Price: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Porter: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Price was in great shape to score the knockout, and he kept that lead as the flop came out {5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Porter had only three cards that would give him the lead, and one of those, the {q-Spades}, came on the turn. Price was now looking for a king or a jack, but the river brought the {2-Spades}.

Porter got the full double to 960,000, while Price, who took the beat without any sort of reaction, dropped to 989,000.

Renkers Out; McLaughin Takes Chip Lead

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Patrick Renkers
Patrick Renkers

The action folded to Patrick Renkers in the hi-jack and he opened to 55,000 only to have Marc McLaughlin three-bet the button to 139,000. Once the play returned to Renkers, he pushed out 345,000 only to have McLaughlin five-bet to 660,000.

The Dutchman considered his options then moved all in for 2,580,000 with McLaughlin snap-calling!

Renkers: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
McLaughlin: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}

With Renkers in trouble and needing to find one of the two case queens, the {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades} flop changed little apart from giving Renkers backdoor outs to a straight. The turn of the {5-Hearts} would leave him with just two outs, but when the {5-Diamonds} completed the board on the river, Renkers was sent to the rail as McLaughlin soared to 5,820,000 in chips.

After Being Down To One Big Blind, Fernandez Goes Over 1.1 Million

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Last year, it was champion Greg Merson who was down to three big blinds on the bubble before running his stack back up and eventually winning the event. This year, Pedro Fernandez could very well be that story. Fernandez was down to just one big blind a couple of levels ago, before quintupling up and then doubling up the very next hand. He's since run his stack up to 1.16 million in chips, with this latest pot going his way.

From under the gun, Cary Marshall raised to 65,000. Fernandez three-bet to 150,000 from the big blind, and Marshall made the call. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}, and Fernandez checked. Marshall bet 125,000, and Fernandez called.

The turn was the {J-Hearts}, and both players checked to see the {6-Diamonds} land on the turn. Fernandez fired 300,000, and Marshall responded with "That's strong!" He then thought for a little bit, and folded. to give Fernandez the pot.

Gee begged for low cards, and the dealer mostly obliged as the board ran out {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{10-Spades}{A-Hearts}, eliminating Cohen from the tournament.

The turn brought a {5-Spades}, and Timoshenko called a 300,000 barrel from his opponent. A {3-Hearts} landed on the river, and Chu slowed down with a check.

Timoshenko checked it back, and Chu tabled {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} for a mere king-high. Timoshenko turned over {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for a flush, and he dragged the huge pot.
