Johan Guilbert has been picking up steam on Day 2, climbing up from 140,000 or 14 big blinds at the start of the day. He has been hovering around 10-20 big blinds for most of the day until this hand.
According to the players, action sarted with a raise from Patrick Crivell in the hijack, which Guilbert called on the button, as did Dinesh Alt in the big blind.
The flop was 10♠6♠A♠ and the big blind checked. Crivell continued for 70,000. Guilbert then pushed all-in, Alt folded and Crivell quickly called.
Johan Guilbert: A♥A♣
Patrick Crivell: 6x6x
Both players flopped a set and Guilbert's set of aces was way ahead. Crivell did not get help on the 7♣ turn or the 3♥ river.
A few hands later Crivell found himself all-in preflop against Brett Apter.
Patrick Crivell: A♦K♦
Brett Apter: J♥J♣
The board 6♣2♥3♣8♦7♠ was of no help to Crivell and he was eliminated.
Jack Corrigan went all in from middle position for 148,000. Chad Eveslage also went all in from late position for 41,000. Everyone else folded and the players tabled their cards.
Chad Eveslage :7♣7♠
Jack Corrigan :A♥8♦
The board ran out 5♠3♥5♣K♦A♦ eliminating Eveslage from the tournament.
Action was picked up on the river in a hand between Massimo Costantini and Michael Jozoff with a board reading J♦6♦9♦4♣7♠. With roughly 200,000 already in the pot Costantini checked out of the small blind before Jozoff reached for a stack of green chips and slid them in the middle. His wager of 500,000 was enough to put Costantini all in. Constantini went into the tank, and told Jozoff "I'm considering calling you very light." after a few more moments Constantini made the call.
Massimo Costantini :K♣6♣
Michael Jozoff :A♦7♦
Jozoff's ace high flush eliminated Costantini from Event #34
Raul Manzanares was all in from late position preflop when Benjamin Luber three-bet all in from the cutoff. Action folded around and both players were heads up.
Benjamin Luber: A♣9♦
Raul Manzanares: A♥10♥
The board ran out K♥A♦6♣7♦10♦ and Manzanares's rivered second pair secured him the knockout.
