James Alexander moved all-in preflop and was called by Marc Rivera.

The hands were tabled and it was the {a-Spades}{7-Spades} held by Alexander that was all-in and at-risk versus the {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} held by Rivera.

The dealer ran out the board of {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Spades} and things ended as they began, with Rivera in the lead, which in turn eliminated Alexander in 5th place for which he took home $37,965 for his effort.

Jerry Wong

Jerry Wong went all-in from the cutoff for 1,250,000 and action folded around to Ole Schemion in the big blind who went into the tank. After some deliberation Schemion called and the hands were tabled.

Jerry Wong: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Ole Schemion: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

The {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} gave some additional counterfeit outs to Wong but the turn {5-Hearts} and river {a-Clubs} gave no improvement to Wong and he was eliminated in 6th place.

Torre Takes a Small One from Schemion

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Giovani Torre
Giovani Torre

Giovani Torre raised to 250,000 from under the gun and was called by Ole Schemion from the button.

The dealer spread the flop of {8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and both players checked.

The turn card {10-Hearts} and the river card {4-Spades} saw the same action.

Torre tabled his {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} first which prompted Schemion to fold, and Torre was awarded the pot.

Rivera Shoves Flop

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Ole Schemion raised under-the-gun to 225,000 and Giovani Torre called on the button with Marc Rivera calling in the big blind.

The flop came out {8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} with action checking to Ole, who continued for 250,000 on the flop which was called by Giovani and Rivera.

The turn came a {10-Diamonds} which prompted a shove from Rivera for 500,000 which got a quick fold from Schemion and a longer fold from Torre. Rivera's rail clapped as he took down his first sizable pot of the day.

One Flop, No Showdown

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
