Baumann Busts to Barfield

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Gaelle Baumann
Gaelle Baumann

Feature Table A

Gaelle Baumann raised to 60,000 from the early position and Andrew Barfield three-bet to 170,000 for the action to fold back to Baumann who four-bet shoved for 665,000. Barfield quickly called with the bigger stack.

Gaelle Baumann: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Andrew Barfield: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The flop came {6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Hearts} to keep Barfield ahead but Baumann picked up the gutshot to a Broadway.

The turn was the {k-Diamonds} to give Barfield a set and the river completed the board with the {6-Spades} to not help Baumann as she was eliminated.

Merijn Van Rooij
Merijn Van Rooij

Feature Table B

Merijn van Rooij was all-in for his last 245,000 and Bruce Knee had called on his direct left with the bigger stack.

Merijn van Rooij: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Bruce Knee: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for Knee to hold with the ace-kicker and the pair of jacks they had both flopped. Van Rooij quietly made his way out of the feature table area

Finger Busted by Bhalla Who Thought He Was Done

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Eshaan Bhalla
Eshaan Bhalla

Feature Table B

The action was caught on the {4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop with 165,000 in the middle.

Eshaan Bhalla had checked from the big blind for Martin Finger to bet 100,000 from the middle position. Bhalla shoved and Finger called for the 370,000 he had behind.

Martin Finger: {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Eshaan Bhalla: {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

They had both flopped top pair but Bhalla was ahead with the king-kicker.

The rest of the board was completed with the {8-Spades} on the turn and the {a-Clubs} on the river to signal the end of Finger's run in the main event.

Bhalla pushed his stack forward, grabbed his backpack (to the confusion of his table mates), and then looked over confused too.

"I thought he had queens!" and then celebrated a bit with some delay.

Koray Aldemir
Koray Aldemir

Earlier on the feature table, Jimmy Tran shoved from the button for his last 300,000. Koray Aldemir was in the big blind and called.

Jimmy Tran: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Koray Aldemir: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Aldemir had woken up with big slick in the big blind, and restricted his opponent's outs further after the {9-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Spades} flop gave him a flush draw. The turn {5-Diamonds} and river {7-Diamonds} bricked and Tran was eliminated.

Clark Sends In the Dump Truck

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Scotter Clark
Scotter Clark

Gabi Livshitz raised it up from middle position and was called by Scotter Clark in the small blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} and Clark checked to Livshitz who continued for 60,000. Clark loaded up his toy dump truck with chips and sent it into the middle of the table as he announced all in for 275,000. Livshitz snap-called and the cards were tabled.

Scotter Clark: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
Gabi Livshitz: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Livshitz was currently in the lead but Clark had a wealth of outs to double up. It was the {k-Spades} on the turn that sealed the deal as Clark made a flush and remained in the tournament.

Colillas Busts with Aces at Feature Table

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ramon Colillas
Ramon Colillas

The following hand took place moments ago on the PokerGO feature table on a delay...

From a middle position, William Hunley raised to 65,000 with {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, but ran into a cooler when Ramon Colillas, in late position, picked up {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} and three-bet to 155,000. Hunley made the call and they both saw a flop of {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

Nunley checked his two-outer top set, and Colillas made a continuation bet of 160,000 and his opponent called. The turn was the {4-Spades}, a glimmer of hope for pocket aces.

Again, the player with top set checked and Colillas bet 285,000 and again received a call. When the river {3-Spades} boated Nunley up, he checked for a third time, which baited his opponent to jam all in for 630,000. Colillas was eliminated on Day 5.

Hegedus Coolered and Eliminated

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Juliet Hegedus
Juliet Hegedus

Matthew Levine opened to 60,000 in middle position and Juliet Hegedus three-bet to 175,000 in the hijack. Action folded back to Levine who called.

The dealer spread the {k-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop and Levine check-called for 125,000.

The {7-Clubs} landed on the turn, Levine led for 275,000, and Hegedus moved all in for approximately 750,000. Levin quickly called.

Juliet Hegedus: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Matthew Levine: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Hegedus turned the straight and was ahead of Levine's flopped set, but the {7-Diamonds} spiked the river to improve Levine to a full house, ending Hegedus' Main Event run in brutal fashion.

William Nunley
William Nunley

Action panned to the feature table with the board showing the {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{q-Spades}{7-Spades} board. Bruno Desimoni bet 600,000 with {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} in the hijack. William Nunley then check-raised to 1,870,000 from early position with {a-Spades}{8-Spades}, which put Desimoni all-in.

With the pot at 3,245,000, the GGPoker Qualifier went deep into the tank with his full house and ended up folding the best hand.

Imsirovic Bluffs the River...Unsuccessfully

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ali Imsirovic
Ali Imsirovic

Ali Imsirovic raised to 60,000 from the hijack and got three callers.

The board {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} was checked around and Shijia Liu checked the {2-Hearts} turn. Imsirovic put out a delayed continuation bet of 75,000 and was called by Austin Apicella and Liu.

The river was the {10-Hearts}. Liu checked again and Imsirovic bet 325,000. Apicella folded and Liu tank-called as the players went on break.

Imsirovic instantly threw his hand into the muck, rendering it irretrievable, and Liu took down the pot.
