Dentale Scores Knockout With Last-Second Call

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mike Dentale
Mike Dentale

Mike Dentale, in the hijack, bet 250,000 on the turn with the board showing {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. His opponent, on the big blind, reraised all in for 970,000 total. Dentale took his time with the next decision.

"I have absolutely no idea if you're a clown or not," lamented Dentale, who just recently sat at the table. With 1,050,000 behind, a call and a loss would have left Dentale with a critically low stack.

Clock was called, and Dentale took it down to the absolute last second before putting in the call.

Mike Dentale: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}

Dentale made the right call,and his top pair, top kicker had about 73 percent equity against the opponent's outkicked pair of aces with the spade flush draw. Dentale's hand held up through the {4-Hearts} river, and he's now up to nearly 3 million chips.

Opponent: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Houzvicek Back-Raise Jams to Coin Flip Victory

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

A raise to 85,000 came in from the under the gun player. Matous Houzvicek called from the hijack and the button three bet to 325,000. The original raiser folded and Houzvicek went all in for 1,640,000. The button didn't like it but knew he had to make the call.

Houzvicek: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Houzvicek was able to fade the remaining aces and queens left in the deck as the board came {8-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Houzvicek now has over double the current average stack.

Souza Finally Gets A Hand

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Matt Souza
Matt Souza

Matt Souza had a great start to the day, coming back to Day 3 with one of the biggest stacks.

But last couple levels didn't treat him so well. He lost most of his chips, dropping under the one million mark.

Fortunately he found the double, with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} vs his opponent's {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} all in preflop.

The board {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{a-Spades} counterfeited the pocket nines but the queens were good and hold for Souza.

Liu Buliding a Stack

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Ping Liu took down three consecutive pots, getting his stack up to near the 2-million mark.

On the first of the three hands, Liu was in middle position, in a heads-up pot against a small blind opponent. The board showed {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, with more than 500k already in the middle.

Liu's opponent checked the river, and Liu went for the all-in overbet for 865,000. His opponent asked for an exact count, then went deep into the tank.

After a few minutes the clock was called, and a tournament director counted down to zero just as the small blind mucked.
