Up and Down for East
Jareth East opened to 600,000 from under the gun and was called by Mitchell Halverson on the button and Andreas Kniep in the big blind. The flop fell 
and the action checked around to the 
on the turn.
Kniep led out with a bet of 1,450,000 and East called while Halverson got out of the way. The river was the 
and Kniep checked to East who made a large bet of 5,575,000. Kniep went into the tank for nearly five minutes before finally folding. East flashed the 
before his cards went into the muck.
On the next hand, Sean Ragozzini raised to 650,000 in early position and East defended from the big blind. The flop came 
and East check-called a bet of 450,000 from Ragozzini.
The turn was the 
and both players checked to see the 
on the river. East led out with a bet of 1,000,000 and Ragozzini quickly looked him up. East showed 
for fives and fours but Ragozzini held 
for tens and deuces.
