Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Rajashekar Redd Varakala jammed for his last 185,000 in middle position and three-time WSOP gold ring winner David Valone put in a three-bet to 400,000 on the button, forcing the blinds out of the pot.

Rajashekar Redd Varakala: A♥K♠ All in
David Valone: 9♦9♣

The 10♣3♣2♠ flop wasn't looking promising for Varakala but the A♠ turn gave him a pair of aces to take the lead. The 4♦ river changed nothing as he pulled in the double.

Player	Chips	Progress
David Valone	3,000,000 2,299,000	2,299,000
Rajashekar Redd Varakala	620,000 190,000	190,000

Vladas Tamasauskas opened 200,000 under the gun and only Wendy Nguyen called from the cutoff.

The dealer spread a flop of 8♦7♦6♥ and Tamasauskas quickly check-folded to a bet of 200,000 from Nguyen.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Just Before Dinner Break:

Shahar Hulli raised to 200,000 under the gun and it folded to Adam Kievman in the big blind who went all in for 1,500,000, as these two have history. Hulli quickly made the call.

Adam Kievman: A♠Q♦
Shahar Hulli: A♣K♥

The flop fanned out Q♠8♦K♣, giving each a piece with Kievman well behind. The turn bricked the 4♣ but when the Q♥ fell it was Kievman's turn to get his chips back from their previous altercations.

Hulli was left with only a few big blinds.

Player	Chips	Progress
Adam Kievman	3,100,000 2,000,000	2,000,000
Shahar Hulli	325,000 1,275,000	1,275,000

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Caleb Powell opened 160,000 in the hijack and both Todd Mclane in the small blind and the big blind made the call.

When the 9♦4♠3♦ flop hit the felt, Mclane checked and the big blind led for 235,000. Powell mucked his hand and Mclane tanked for about a minute before pushing his entire stack of about 880,000 across the line. The big blind thought about it for a few moments before pushing his cards face down toward the dealer.

Caleb Powell	3,050,000 150,000	150,000

Kievman Knows it's Coming

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Claudio Elizalde

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Adam Kievman called the all in of the short-stacked Shahar Hulli. Hulli was quick to get out of his chair and gather his belongings as Kievman stated, "I've been beaten like this before..."

Shahar Hulli: K♠J♥
Adam Kievman: A♦K♦

Hulli picked up a sweat right away when the flop spead 3♥Q♠10♣ and the tabled collectively gasped when the 9♠ peeled the turn, leaving Kievman with only three outs; the door closed on him when they 10♥ completed the board.

Kievman was seen getting a shove through the very next hand to recoup a small portion of the chips he's lost.
