Ichilcik Makes Big Laydown

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Derek Ichilcik raised to 18,000 from late position, and John Thai three-bet shoved from the small blind for about 190,000.

After some careful consideration from Ichilcik, he eventually arrived at a fold, tabling AK.

"Good fold," said Thai, as he showed AA, as a sign of respect.

Deng Takes Down Huge Pot

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ken Deng was seen dragging in a sizable pot after having doubled up on a board that read 965J8. With cards still face up at showdown, Deng tabled A10 while his opponent had 66.

Deng explained to PokerNews that a majority of the money went in on the turn. He mentioned that his opponent bet 55,000, he raised to 120,000, his opponent then went all in, and he made the call.

Yim Survives for His Tournament Life

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Chaechon Yim was in the small blind when Tony Lam raised from under the gun to 20,000. Yim saw this as his opportunity to pick a hand and go for it so he three-bet all in for 37,000. Lam made the call.

Chaechon Yim: KJAll in
Tony Lam: A10

After the flop of A610, Yim began calling for a queen and the dealer obliged with a Q on the turn and a 5 on the river which gave Yim a much needed double up and a save from being eliminated.

Ruffman Annihilates Two Players

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Eric Ruffman is on a roll and knocked out two players in a row in the following hands:

In the first hand the middle position player raised to 17,000 and Ruffman moved all in from the small blind and received the call. Ruffman had the superior stack.

Middle position: AQ All in
Eric Ruffman: KK

The board was JJ4910 and Ruffman's kings dodged the ace to find two pair for the win and the elimination.

In the second hand Ruffman was wishing this was a bounty tournament when an early position player raised all in preflop to 49,000 and Ruffman made the call and casually turned over queens for his second big pocket pair in a matter of minutes.

Early position: AJ All in
Eric Ruffman: QQ

This board ran out with K9J95 and Ruffman managed to dodge the ace again and add to his chip stack with another two pair.

Level 17 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Button: AQ All in
Brian McKay: KK

The board stayed safe for McKay with 36792 and in the end his pair of kings were victorious.
