Sklar Folds Sixth

Level 26

Stud 8

Goldman: {x-}{x-} / {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Sklar: {x-}{x-} / {Q-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Lee Goldman was the bring-in and Richard Sklar completed. Action folded back around to Goldman and he came along for the ride. Goldman paired deuces on fourth street and led out with a bet. Sklar called, and the same action happened on fifth street. Goldman kept up his aggression with another bet on sixth street. This was enough for Sklar, though, who folded his cards. Goldman picked up the pot and now has about 700,000 in chips.

Two Big Ones for Pescatori

Level 26

Stud

With limits this big anything can happen, and Max Pescatori is attempting to prove that. The Italian-pro had been short for quite some time, but after winning a few pots he's now near the top. First he had the bring-in and Christopher Wallace raised on his left, after Randy Ohel called.

Pescatori called and on fourth Wallace bet, Ohel called and Pescatori raised. Wallace folded and Ohel called. On fifth street both players checked, and Pescatori fired again on sixth - enough to take this pot down.

Pescatori: {X-}{X-} / {8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Wallace: {X-}{X-} / {Q-Hearts}{2-Spades} fold
Ohel: {X-}{X-} / {7-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades} fold

Stud 8

The game changed, but Pescatori's tactics didn't. It was Richard Ashby who completed and this time Pescatori and Ohel called. On fourth street Pescatori bet and both Ashby and Ohel called. On fifth, Pescatori bet again and both of his opponents folded.

Pescatori: {X-}{X-} / {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Ohel: {X-}{X-} / {K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} fold
Ashby: {X-}{X-} / {5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} fold

Stud

Anderson: {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds} / {Q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / {7-Hearts}
Pescatori: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} / {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} / {2-Clubs}

Calvin Anderson completed and it folded to Max Pescatori, who made it two bets. Action folded back around to Anderson, and he called for his tournament life. Despite making a diamond flush draw on fifth, Anderson was unable to improve his hand beyond a pair of deuces. Pescatori made eights and fours to win the hand and eliminate Anderson in eighth place. Anderson will collect $50,966 in winnings.

Triple Up for Chen

Level 25

Razz

On third street things got a little crazy as Max Pescatori completed, Bill Chen raised and Calvin Anderson put in a third bet. Pescatori tanked for a bit and made it 120,000. Chen called all in for 118,000 and Anderson called, too.

On fourth street, Anderson bet and Pescatori called. On fifth, Pescatori folded in frustration as he caught a pair of queens.

Anderson: {3-}{4-} / {A-}{8-}{4-}{7-} / {10-}
Pescatori: {X-}{X-} / {5-}{Q-}{Q-} fold
Chen: {2-}{4-} / {6-}{2-}{9-}{5-} / {A-}

Chen made the winning combo on the river when he hit the ace to triple up his stack. Anderson and Pescatori are now the short stacks.
