Dudley Busts Sinishtaj

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Gjergj Sinishtaj cashed in the $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller but he won't be able to do so in the $10,000 version. His cards were already scooped up and there were some "ohhhh" coming from the table. Dash Dudley had the winning hand with {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}{q-Spades}{j-Clubs} after spiking a king on the river to improve to a full house, while Sinishtaj had been at risk with the {j-}{j-}{10-}{x-} for flopped trips tens.

Faroni Triples Up, Gryko Busts

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Richard Gryko raised to 6,000 from the cutoff, and Abraham Faroni called in the small blind. The big blind three-bet to 24,000, and both Gryko and Faroni called.

Faroni jammed his last 32,000 in on the {2-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop, and the big blind called. Gryko moved his last 66,600 in the middle, and the big blind called that, as well.

Abraham Faroni: {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Richard Gryko: {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}
Big Blind: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

The {10-Clubs} turn improved Faroni to a full house, and after the {4-Diamonds} fell on the river, Faroni tripled up while Gryko hit the rail, and the big blind took in the small side pot.

Erik Seidel in previous action

David Benyamine raised to 5,000 from under the gun, and David Mezei called in middle position, as did the cutoff. Erik Seidel three-bet to 10,000 in the big blind, leaving himself 12,400 behind. Benyamine called, and Mezei potted it to 46,200. The cutoff folded, Seidel committed his remaining chips, and Benyamine called as well.

Benyamine checked the {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop, then folded to a bet of 24,000 from Mezei.

Erik Seidel: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}
David Mezei: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

Mezei's aces and the nut flush draw were well ahead of Seidel's kings, and the {j-Clubs} turn and {q-Hearts} river kept Mezei in front.

"It's a good thing this isn't a re-entry tournament!" Mezei said to Seidel, referencing when Mezei eliminated Seidel from the $25,000 PLO High-Roller and Seidel re-entered and came back to finish in sixth-place for $264,186.

Yu Gets Short; Doubles

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Ben Yu had dropped to 25,500 and three-bet the pot against an open raise by Frank Koopmann. The reraise of Koopmann followed and Yu called all in.

Ben Yu: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Frank Koopmann: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

The board came {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and Yu doubled. Their table is next to break as just three tables remain in the Amazon Gold section.

Dowling Eliminated by Bennani

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Chris Dowling ended up all in on the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts} turn holding the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Hearts} for three pair and Shawn Bennani looked him up with the {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a straight and a flush draw. The {j-Diamonds} on the river failed to fill up Dowling to a full house and the Irishman departed.

Mizrachi Doesn't Wanna Be Friendly

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Peter Costa raised to 5,000 from the cutoff, and was called by Robert Mizrachi in the hijack and Stephen Johnson in the small blind.

Action checked to Mizrachi on the {5-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} flop, and he bet 5,500. Only Costa called. The {2-Spades} on the turn was checked again by Costa, and Mizrachi jammed for 25,000. Costa paused for a moment.

"First good news," Mizrachi said, to which Costa replied, "Yeah, I'm not snap-calling."

After a few moments, Costa said, "Because I'm being friendly," and started to fold, while Mizrachi said, "No, don't! Don't be friendly!" He then flashed {j-Spades}{j-} and said, "Set of jacks and the nut flush draw!"

Cooleman Busts One

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

A short stack was already all in and awaiting his fate at one of the remaining four tables in Amazon Gold and he was called by Richard Harroch and Maxx Coleman. The flop showed {k-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Harroch bet 12,000, which Coleman called.

On the {3-Clubs} turn, Harroch checked and folded to a pot-sized bet of Coleman, who headed into the showdown with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for middle set. The player at risk had {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and the {k-Clubs} on the river gave Coleman a full house.
