Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier's seat empty, his former table recounted his bust house hand.

Grospellier was short-stacked for most of the remaining level and eventually moved all in for his remaining chips from the cutoff. Adam Grovenstein in the big blind called.

Bertrand Grospellier: A♦Q♦
Adam Grovenstein: 8x8x

The board ran out with no help for Grospellier. The pocket eights of Grovenstein held and "ElkY" was sent to the rail.

Big Pot Without Showdown For Bifarella

Maxime Taldir

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

After an open in early position to 40,000 called by the hijack and by Raj Vohra in the cutoff, Samuel Bifarella in the big blind made a squeeze to 205,000. Neither the initial raiser nor Vohra seemed to worry after this bet, as they both called.

On the 2♥J♦8♥ flop, Bifarella bet 275,000. The player in early position quickly folded, but Vohra seemed interested. For a minute, he counted his stack and was on the edge of calling a few times. However, he eventually folded.

"I have a pocket pair," he said to justify his thought process. But he let the pot go to Bifarella, who approaches the end of the day with 1,400,000 chips.

Player	Chips	Progress
Raj Vohra	2,600,000 1,400,000	1,400,000

Samuel Bifarella	1,400,000 1,278,000	1,278,000

Run it Twice?

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

A player opened to 50,000 in early position before Joe Hachem three-bet to 150,000. Bill Klein four-bet all-in from the small blind for 605,000, forcing the original raiser out and Hachem snap-called.

"Run it twice?" asked Bill Klein as both hands were tossed on their backs.

Bill Klein: 8♦8♣
Joe Hachem: A♦K♠

It was the classic coin flip as the board ran out 9♥5♦4♠7♠4♦, for Klein's eights to hold, and the dealer refused to run it a second time.

Player	Chips	Progress
Joe Hachem	1,635,000 725,000	725,000

Bill Klein	1,310,000 935,000	935,000

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Steven Spunt opened to 60,000 with J♠6♠ in the small blind, picking up a call by Nicholas Rigby with the 2♥2♦. A first barrel for 50,000 was called by Rigby, who came along on the 3♥ turn as well when Spunt bet another 125,000.

Spunt checked the 6♦ river and almost snap-called a hefty bet of 500,000 by Rigby before he noticed the sizing. One minute later, Spunt made the call and was shown the bad news.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

In a three-way pot, the flop was K♦8♦4♦ and Ryan Casaly checked in the small blind, followed by Joao Simao and the cutoff.

The turn brought the 3♣ and Casaly led out for 55,000. Simao called and the cutoff raised it to 210,000. Casaly called and Simao went deep into the tank. After a few minutes, he ended up folding.

The river fell the K♥ and Casaly sent 100,000. His opponent called and Casaly tabled 4♥4♣ for the full house. His opponent sent his cards into the muck.

Ryan Casaly	1,380,000 892,000	892,000

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Rafael Moraes and Nick Marchington had reached the river in a pot worth around 400,000 chips. On Q♥9♥4♦K♦6♥, Moraes led out for 325,000 from early position and Nick Marchington weighed his options for a while.

Suddenly, he shoved his entire stack in the middle, worth 1,440,000 chips.

Moraes was clearly distraught by the situation and had a grimace on his face as he repeeked his cards several times. Ultimately, he folded his J♥7♥ face up. Upon seeing that Moraes folded a flush, the elated Marchington slammed his 10♥10♦ on the table, revealing that he had been bluffing.

Moraes complimented the hand of his opponent and the two headed into the final few hands of Day 4 evenly stacked.
