Anatolii Zyrin Eliminated in 7th Place ($42,205)

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.

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.

Gorodinsky Jams Into Rast

Level 22

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Christopher Claassen won the big blind in the first hand back from the dinner break and it was then up to Naoya Kihara to pick a game. He usually selected A-5 Draw but pondered about it for a while.

"Now that Randy is gone, we can pick a different game," he joked and the others chimed in. Eventually, Kihara settled on PLO-8.

First up, Brian Rast opened to 75,000 from under the gun and Mike Gorodinsky potted to 260,000 from the next seat. Rast mulled it over and called, then checked the {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop. Gorodinsky jammed for 375,000 and got through with it.

Rast Quickly Back Over Three Million

Level 22

Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better

Brian Rast checked his big blind after Naoya Kihara limped in the small.

The duo saw a flop of {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and checked.

On the {8-Clubs} turn, Kihara led for 30,000 and Rast called.

Kihara then sized up a bit on the {j-Diamonds} river, making it 80,000 to go, but Rast again called.

Kihara spread out {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for a set of queens, but Rast then showed {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for a rivered Broadway straight.
