Ramos Takes a Pair of Hits, Volpe Gains More

Level 15
Felipe Ramos
Felipe Ramos

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

in a battle of the blinds, after Felipe Ramos limped in the small blind, Jean-Robert Bellande made it 35,000 in the big blind and Ramos came along with a call.

Ramos drew one and Bellande patted.

After Ramos checked, Bellande fired out a stack of 85,000 chips.

Ramos tossed {x-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} into the muck, and conceded the pot to Bellande.

On the next hand, Ramos raised on the button to 13,000 and was called in the big blind by Paul Volpe.

Volpe drew two, while Ramos needed three cards.

Volpe then led out for 25,000 and was called by Ramos.

They each drew one and checked on the next two drawing rounds, with Volpe showing down a {10-}{8-}{4-}{3-}{2-} for the winner, taking a bit more from the GG Poker Ambassador.

Andrulis Knocked Out by Galfond

Stud Hi-Lo Regular

Kristijonas Andrulis: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} / {q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{a-Clubs} / {j-Clubs}
Phil Galfond: {2-Spades}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}

Kristijonas Andrulis was all-in against fellow short stack Phil Galfond and made a pair of queens. However, he didn't have Galfond's trips deuces beat and a worse low.

"That's it?" Andrulis asked in disbelief and then gathered his belongings before heading to take his seat in another WSOP bracelet event, which he had just registered for during the dinner break.

Madsen More Than Doubles

Level 15
Jeff Madsen
Jeff Madsen

Stud Hi-Lo Regular

Jeff Madsen: {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} / {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{9-Clubs} / {3-Spades}
Phil Galfond: {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} / {2-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts} / {k-Spades}
Nacho Barbero: {x-}{x-} / {j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs} fold on sixth

The action was picked up on fifth street on which Phil Galfond bet and Nacho Barbero called. Jeff Madsen then raised and both opponents called. On sixth, Madsen bet and Galfond raised, which sent Barbero deep into the tank. The Argentinian reluctantly folded and Galfond reraised as Madsen called all-in for 33,000 behind.

Galfond had a low draw and no high-hand just yet, which didn't change when he peeled the river. Madsen spiked a trey on the river and scooped it all with the superior low and ace-king high.

Volpe Gets a Bit Healthier in Battle of Short Stacks

Level 15
Paul Volpe
Paul Volpe

Pot-Limit Hold'em

Picking action up on the turn with about 40,000 in the pot on a {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} board, Anatolli Zyrin checked in the big blind and Paul Volpe put out a bet of 18,000 which Zyrin called.

On the river {5-Clubs}, Zyrin checked again. Volpe inquired if Zyrin had less than him, which he did, just slightly.

Volpe opted to check and go to showdown, showing down {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, which would prove to be the winner, boosting him back over the 100,000 chip mark.

Gorodinsky Leaves Bojang With a Shorter Stack

Level 14

Razz

Mike Gorodinsky: {x-}{x-} / {a-}{10-}{k-}{2-} / {x-}
Ismael Bojang: {x-}{x-} 7 {5-}{8-}{10-}{8-} / {x-}

Ismael Bojang bet fourth and fifth street with the favouring board and then paired his eight on sixth, giving Mike Gorodinsky the lead. He used that for a bet and Bojang stuck around to seventh street on which Gorodinsky checked again. Bojang tanked for a long time and reluctantly folded.

Yu Runs Out of Chips Eventually

Level 14
Ben Yu
Ben Yu

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Off a short stack, Ben Yu raised from under the gun and had exactly 10,000 chips behind. He was called by Greg Mueller in the big blind, who discarded three and Yu discarded two. Mueller then bet and Yu just called, now with 2,000 behind.

Mueller took one new card while Yu took two once more. The bet by Mueller brought the all-in call of Yu and Mueller patted the final draw as Yu needed two new cards once more.

Mueller rolled over his {7-}{6-}{5-}{2-} and Yu was alive with a {6-}{4-}{2-} draw. However, it was all over with the {9-} and the {k-} as final card became a formality already. There are now 25 players remaining and the field will be down to four tables after the next elimination.
