Jerome Solomon

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

James Remitio went all in in three consecutive hands.

He took down the blinds in the first one without having to show.

On the next hand, he put all of his 1,600,000 chips into the pot from middle position. The play checked around to Jose Fernando Garcia Gutierrez, seated to Remitio's immediate right.

After much consideration, Gutierrez made the call.

James Remitio: A♥Q♠ All in
Jose Fernando Garcia Gutierrez: K♠J♦

The flop hit: A♣A♠J♠, giving Remitio the edge with three aces to Gutierrez’ two pair.

The turn 9♥ and river 3♥ made no difference, and Remitio doubled up.

While still stacking his recently acquired chips, Remitio fired again, busting Michael Dwyer with A♠K♣ over A♦Q♦ to a runout that didn’t connect with either player.

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

After a raise to 320,000 from under the gun by Jiasheng Ding, we saw calls from Daniel Dinh sitting in early position, Joonhee Yea sitting on the button, Diana Allen in the small blind, and Shea Dubrock in the big blind for his remaining 240,000.

The flop came out 10♥9♠3♦ and action checked to Yea. He elected to go all in covering all players in the hand for ~3,000,000. Jiasheng Ding was the only caller.

Shea Dubrock: 8♣2♣ All in
Jiasheng Ding: K♠Q♦ All in
Joonhee Yea: K♣10♣

On a 4♣6♠ runout, the top pair of Yea held, and he scooped in a massive pot building his stack to 7,800,000 while also collecting two bounties.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

As the action unfolded, Drake Kemper moved all in from middle position for 1,495,000. Leonardo Deborba moved all in for 4,100,000 from the button and Justin Turner called for 210,000 from the big blind with his remaining stack. It was three-way to the flop with two players at risk.

Justin Turner: K♥K♦ All in
Drake Kemper: A♦6♦ All in
Leonardo Deborba: A♣K♠

The flop brought Kemper a flush draw with 9♦4♦9♣, with Turner’s kings in the lead.

The turn card sealed Turner’s tournament run with the 5♦ giving Kemper the nut flush.

The river card was the 8♥ which changed nothing but gave Kemper a triple-up and sent Turner to the payout counter.

Myles Phago

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Guoliang Wei raised to 325,000 from under the gun, and Sohale Khalili called from middle position.

Tuan Pham moved all in from the small blind for his last 530,000. Wei snap called, and Khalili folded.

Tuan Pham: 7♥7♠ All in
Guoliang Wei: Q♦Q♠

Pham was in trouble and needed some help, which duly came on the 4♥7♣K♣ flop to give him a set of sevens.

The turn brought the 2♠ and Wei needed to spike a queen on the river to send Pham packing.

The 10♠ fell safely for Pham, and he was pushed the pot for a full double up and more.

Player	Chips	Progress
Guoliang Wei	7,300,000 6,360,000	6,360,000

Sohale Khalili	5,800,000 4,045,000	4,045,000
Tuan Pham	1,700,000 465,000	465,000

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Timur Margolin raised to 400,000 from late position and Vernon Bigham moved all in from the button for 3,100,000 and Margolin called.

Vernon Bigham: K♦Q♥ All in
Timur Margolin: A♣2♣

The flop brought Margolin immediate help with 4♦6♣A♦ pairing his ace and taking the lead.

The turn brought some outs for Bigham with the J♠ needing a 10 on the river to make a running straight to keep his tournament run alive.

Unfortunately the river card was the 8♣, no help for Bigham as his run came to an end.

Amirouddine Alibay opened from under the gun to 450,000 and Erwin Banzon defended his big blind.

The flop came 9♦4♥K♥ and Banzon check-called a bet of 250,000 from Alibay to the 7♥ turn, where both checked.

It went check-check again on the Q♠ river and Banzon tabled 3♥3♣ to claim the pot with a pair of threes.

Freeman Ends Valenti's Run

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Rian Valenti opened from the cutoff to 450,000 and Jesse Freeman shoved the small blind for just over 2,000,000. When it got back to Valenti, he took some time before he called off his stack of around 1,800,000.

Rian Valenti: K♥9♦ All in
Jesse Freeman: A♠5♠

Valenti was live but it was Freeman who made a pair on the 10♣7♣5♦ flop. An A♦ ended it as Freeman made an unbeatable two pair, with the meaningless 2♣ filling out the board.
