Solano Doubles on Fitzgerald

Level 40 : 1,250,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante

Christopher Fitzgerald moved all in for a stack of 51,000,000 and Jesse Solano called all-in for his last 30,000,000.

Holding {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, Fitzgerald had the dominating hand, facing {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} in Solano's hand but a board {q-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} gave the pot to Solano.

Fitzgerald Doubles While Curry Takes a Hit

Level 40 : 1,250,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Christopher Fitzgerald

After Adrian Curry, who's been pretty active all day, raised from the under-the-gun to 7,000,000, Christopher Fitzgerald decided on a three-bet shove of 27,750,000 from the button. The blinds folded and Curry made the call.

Christopher Fitzgerald: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Adrian Curry: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}, which gave Fitzgerald's stack a much-needed boost and put a dent in Curry's stack.

Peter Mylenki
Peter Mylenki

A short-stacked Peter Mylenki was all in and behind with {a-}{8-} against Andrei Konopelko's {a-}{k-} but caught a {7-}{6-}{5-} flop with a lot of potential.

Unfortunately for him, the board ran out {10-} {6-} and he had to settle for a payday of $42,788 for finishing in 23rd.

Veiga Still Chipping Up

Level 40 : 1,250,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Diogo Veiga
Diogo Veiga

Diogo Veiga, who's has one of the healthier stacks, raised to 4,500,000 from early position, and after it folded around to Andrei Konopelko in late position, he made the call.

The players then went headsup to a flop of {6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, where Veiga continued for 6,500,000 and was called by Konopelko. After both players checked the {4-Diamonds} turn, Veiga put out a bet of 8,000,000 on the {6-Spades} river and was called by Konopelko, who mucked when Veiga tabled {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, which sent even more chips to Veiga for him to stack.

Dylan Lask opened on the button to 6,300,000 and Arlan Goldberg pushed all in for around 35,000,000. Walter Atwood made the call from the big blind and Lask folded.

Arlan Goldberg : {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Walter Atwood: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Golberg was in desperate shape for a double up, and a board {6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts} fell, eliminating him in 24th place.

End of the Road for Day 3 Chip Leader

Level 39 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Amer Torbey
Amer Torbey

Amer Torbey, with a stack of 14,000,000 after a few double up, moved all in and got called by Andrew Mckenzie to create the following showdown:

Amer Torbey: {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Andrew Mckenzie: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Torbey needed to hit on the board but {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, improving Mckenzie's hand into a full house and Torbey made his way to the cashier. Shortly before Torbey hit the rail, Bryden Baxter bowed out to leave the field with 24 players.
