Three Way All In Results in No Eliminations

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 6 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Andrew Robl, Nick Petrangelo and Jonathan Jaffee found themselves all in pre flop, with Petrangelo covering both other players.

Andrew Robl:
Jonathan Jaffee:
Nick Petrangelo:

Robl was the short stack and flipping for his tournament life. Jaffee, meanwhile, was in a good position to win a large sidepot against Petrangelo.

The runout saw Robl triple up and also sent a decent chunk of Petrangelo's stack Jaffee's way to ensure that no player was eliminated.

Rheem Puts Deeb to the Test

Mike Patrick

Level 7 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Chino Rheem has been steadily growing his stack into the chip lead and he quickly extended it after the break in a hand with Shaun Deeb.

Action was discovered on the river with a 600,000+ chip pot built with the board reading . Rheem moved all in from the big blind for Deeb's final 325,000 chips and his $25,000 bounty.

In middle position, Deeb pondered his decision for over two minutes before annoyedly tossing his cards to the muck and awarding another sizable pot to Rheem.

Player	Chips	Progress
Chino Rheem	1,660,000 360,000	360,000
Shaun Deeb	325,000 -355,000	-355,000

Peters Moves All In Against Negreanu

BenDemory

Level 7 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

David Peters raised 20,000 in early position, and Daniel Negreanu raised again to 90,000 from the small blind.

Peters took a few moments, and then moved the remainder of his 475,000 stack in the middle.

Negreanu gave it consideration, using a time bank in his deliberation.

"I just think you have a really good hand", Negreanu told Peters, and he let it go.

Smith Can't Get There

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 7 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to Dan Smith in late position who shoved his remaining 130,000 chips into the middle. No one looked him up until Alex Foxen, after some careful consideration, called out of the big blind to put Smith at risk.

Dan Smith:
Alex Foxen:

Smith was behind but did have two live cards. Unfortunately for him the board brought no help and sent his stack and the $25,000 bounty Foxen's way.

Smith wasted no time hopping back into the action and will now have a fresh set of chips to work with, while Frank Crivello was also seen firing off a second bullet after busting earlier in the day.

Alex Foxen	1,275,000 95,000	95,000
