Some Stacks Around the Room as Bubble Approaches

Michael Moncek

Michael Moncek shoved preflop for 465,000 from early position, about 11 big blinds. Taylor von Kriegenbergh called him in late position.

Moncek: {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Taylor von Kriegenbergh: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Moncek went for the backpack to find some run good. The flop came a dream {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, giving Moncek a pair and the nut flush draw backup.

The {5-Hearts} sealed the deal on the turn and Moncek found a double through von Kriegenbergh.

"What a flop! What, can you see the future of the deck?" said von Kriegenbergh.

Moncek scooped the pot and survived as the bubble draws near.

David Peters: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Michael Moncek: {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and Peters made a set of sixes to double through Moncek as the bubble nears.

As the bubble approaches, Ryan Riess took a tour around the other tables.

"How's it going, Ryan? Looking for any other Main Event winners around?" chirped Sam Grafton. Koray Aldemir smiled sitting three seats away.

Riess started rubbing Grafton's shoulders.

"Those are some firm hands, Ryan. Your wife's a lucky lady," said Grafton.

Colpoys Flops The Goods

Level 13 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Dan Colpoys
Dan Colpoys

Action picked up on the turn with about 270,000 in the pot. The board read {8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Dan Colpoys placed a bet of 160,000 from the blinds and Sergi Reixach made the call in late position.

The river was the {7-Hearts}. Both players now checked.

"Flush," said Colpoys, as he showed the {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Reixach mucked.

"Was that a really good card for you?" asked Colpoys, wondering if the paired board affected the outcome. Reixach shrugged.

"Probably didn't matter unless it was a club," surmised Colpoys.

Ognyan Dimov: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and the ace-king held for Dimov to eliminate Gonsalves from the tournament as the bubble nears.

Ognyan Dimov

Action picked up on the turn in a heads-up pot between Ognyan Dimov and Markus Gonsalves. The board showed {8-Hearts}{9-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}.

Dimov bet 185,000 into a pot of about the same. After some thought, Gonsalves made the call from the big blind, leaving himself 310,000 behind.

On the {2-Hearts} river, Gonsalves checked again. Dimov now bet 175,000.

"How much is that?" asked Gonsalves. He seemed in pain but eventually put in the call.

Dimov showed the {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for two pair and enough to win the pot.
