Randy Ohel Eliminated in 6th Place ($55,329)

Level 21
Randy Ohel
Randy Ohel

Pot-Limit Omaha

After leading much of the day, Randy Ohel has just been eliminated in the biggest pot of the tournament at the hands of Brian Rast.

The action began with Rast raising to 55,000 in the cutoff and Ohel three-betting to 175,000 from the big blind.

Rast called to see a flop of {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.

Ohel then led out for 380,000, and Rast began a deep deliberation.

After a couple of minute, Rast declared "pot" which would account for all of Ohel's approximately 1,400,000 chips.

Ohel pushed his stack forward and the largest pot of the tournament saw cards on their backs.

Randy Ohel: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Brian Rast: {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

Rast had pairs for every card on the flop, while Ohel held overpairs, a flush draw, and a gutshot straight draw.

The dealer then dropped the {4-Diamonds} and {2-Diamonds} on the turn and river, bringing no help to Ohel, who was eliminated in shocking fashion just before the players went on break for dinner.

Naoya Kihara

Pot-Limit Hold'em

Randy Ohel raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and was met with a three-bet to 160,000 from Naoya Kihara in the big blind.

Ohel then moved all in for Kihara's remaining 415,000 and Kihara called.

Naoya Kihara: {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
Randy Ohel: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The board came {2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, bringing no help to Ohel and doubling up Kihara.

Level 21
Anatolii Zyrin
Anatolii Zyrin

Pot-Limit Hold'em

The action commenced with a raise to 45,000 by Brian Rast and Randy Ohel clicked it up to 125,000 on the button. Anatolii Zyrin four-bet for the size of the pot for 440,000 in the small blind almost immediately. Rast gave it some consideration and pushed all-in for Ohel to fold and Zyrin committed the remainder of his chips.

Anatolii Zyrin: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Brian Rast: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The dominated ace found no help on the {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{9-Hearts} runout and that sent Zyrin to the rail in 7th place for $42,205.

Zyrin opened to 40,000 the next hand and Mike Gorodinsky flat-called in the big blind. Gorodinsky checked the {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop, then folded when facing a bet worth 40,000.

Rast opened to 45,000 on the button and folded to Gorodinsky's pot-sized three-bet.

Randy Ohel raised from the cutoff and was called by Ben Diebold in the small blind. Naoya Kihara then made it three bets to go from the big blind, with both potential opponents calling.

Diebold drew two, Kihara took one, and Ohel was in for three.

Diebold checked to Kihara who continued betting. Ohel checked, then it was Diebold coming with a check-raise.

Diebold Takes From Rast

Level 21

Rast announced a nine and Diebold immediately replied "nine what?" before exposing a {9-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{2-}. That won the hand as Rast mucked.

One hand later, Christopher Claassen raised from under the gun and Mike Gorodinsky defended in the big blind. They took two each and Gorodinsky check-called, then took two and Claassen took one. Following the check by Gorodinsky, Claassen bet and that won the pot.
