Lewis Doubles Through Arieh

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Over on the third feature table, Josh Arieh clashed with Romain Lewis and the Frenchman ended up at risk with the {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. Arieh was trailing with {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} an the {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop gave Lewis a gutshot.

On the {5-Clubs} turn, Arieh paired his five while Lewis added a flush draw to his outs, and he got there with the {k-Spades} river to double.

Su Flops a Set; Eliminates Opponent

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Timothy Su
Timothy Su

A player in early position shipped all in for 190,000 and Timothy Su was next to act and made the call. The action folded around behind Su and the cards were tabled.

Timothy Su: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}

Su was a big favorite and became an even bigger favorite when the flop came {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and the opponent couldn't catch runner-runner when the board completed with the {3-Clubs} on the turn and the {7-Clubs} on the river.

After an open, Dylan Meier three-bet and Gordon Vayo four-bet all in for around 490,000. The initial raiser folded and Meier called.

Meier held {a-}{a-} against the {k-}{k-} of Vayo. The flop brought an ace, and the board paired on the turn to leave the 2016 Main Event runner-up drawing dead. He was eliminated midway through Day 4.

Kirsch Cracks Duong's Rockets

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Adam Duong raised to 27,000 from the hijack and was called by Daniel Kirsch on the cutoff as well as the player in the big blind. The flop came {5-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} and the big blind checked to Duong, who fired a continuation-bet of 67,000.

Kirsch called, or so he thought. In actuality, he put out around 107,000 and the floor was called. The ruling was such that since he had put out a bet in excess of 150 percent of the original bet, he was required to make a minimum raise of 134,000. The big blind got out of the way and Duong quickly moved all in effectively for Kirsch's total remaining stack of around 450,000.

Kirsch thought for a bit and ultimately committed the remainder of his chips

Adam Duong: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Daniel Kirsch: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Kirsch was down to two cards in his tournament life. That total was halved when the turn {3-Diamonds} fell. The river came {q-Clubs}, keeping him alive via a four outer as he now finds himself with a stack of around one million in play.

(Hand details relayed to PokerNews)

A player in middle position raised to 25,000, Chris Hunichen three-bet to 88,000 from the next seat over, David Guay four-bet to 240,000 from the small blind, the initial raiser folded and Hunichen called.

They checked to the turn of a {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs} board where Guay bet 330,000. Hunichen called.

The river was the {6-Clubs}, Guay shoved for 664,000 and Hunichen went into the tank for a while.

"So sick," said Hunichen. "Feels like you have queens."

Eventually, Guay called the clock and Hunichen called as time was expiring.

Guay tabled {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a set of tens, besting Hunichen's {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} to win what is the biggest pot of the Main Event to this point.

There was already 600,000 chips in the main pot already with Nick Blackburn all in. Two other players, Aaron Vanblarcum and Vitalijs Zavorotnijs had both put in 200,000 each to a side pot with action on a {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{q-Spades} river.

Both players checked. Zavorotnijs showed {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} and with Vanblarcum showing {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Blackburn showing {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}, Blackburn was sent to the rail and Zavorotnijs moved up level with Vanblarcum.
