Gabrielle Barredo

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Action was picked up with two players in an all-in showdown with their hands and chips in the middle of the felt.

Shane Rose: Q♥10♥ All in
Weizheng Zhong: 8♦8♣

We were told that Rose, in early position, called Weizhong's open-shove with two big blinds behind. The dealer dealt a board of 6♠7♥4♠7♣7♦ which gave Zhong a full house eliminating Rose in the process.

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

The hand was already underway with Robert Keating and Eric Revak all in for a showdown.

Eric Revak: A♣K♠ All in
Robert Keating: A♥5♥

Revak had Keating dominated and his lead was strengthened when the flop came 5♣K♥3♣ immediately giving him a pair. The runout 2♦J♣ didn't help Keating at all, giving Revak a double up.

Left with less than two big blinds, Keating was eliminated shortly after.

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Robert Keating moved all in for 650,000 from late position and Eric Revak three bet to 2,000,000 from the small blind. Michael Marks then decided to come over the top and announced all in for 4,500,000. Revak called.

Robert Keating: 6x6x All in
Michael Marks: Ax9x All in
Eric Revak: Q♥K♣

Marks was pretty happy to see the flop of 7♠7♦9♠ but then distraught when the turn brought the K♠ to put Revak ahead with top pair.

But then the miracle 9♥ fell on the river to give Marks trips and a full double up and more, plus send Keating to the rail and claim a bounty.

Player	Chips	Progress
Michael Marks	12,200,000 5,000,000	5,000,000
Eric Revak	6,600,000 1,300,000	1,300,000

Robert Jones

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Noam Muallem raised from early position for his stack of 7,700,000. Action folded around to George Tatalovich in the big blind, who would make the call for his chip stack of 4,625,000.

George Tatalovich: 9♣9♥ All in
Noam Muallem: A♥J♦

It was a clean runout for Tatalovich with a board of Q♥7♦2♦6♦6♥, securing a crucial double-up late in day 2.

Player	Chips	Progress
George Tatalovich	10,000,000 400,000	400,000

Rife Runs Into Zhong's Queens

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Weizheng Zhong opened from middle position and Caleb Rife shipped in his stack of around 12,000,000 from the small blind. Zhong quickly called.

Caleb Rife: 9♠9♦ All in
Weizheng Zhong: Q♣Q♥

Rife had run into it and needed a lot of help from the board in order to stay alive. The 8♥2♦6♥ flop wasn't what he needed and the 3♦ turn left him with one shot at two outs. A 5♦ river didn't change anything, which meant Rife was sidelined as Zhong's stack grew to almost 30,000,000.

Jerome Solomon

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Jose Fernando Garcia Gutierrez studied long and hard — long enough for the clock to be called on him — before three-betting the pot all-in for 7.65 million chips.

Demarco Howard, who had three times as many chips made the call.

Jose Fernand Garcia Gutierrez: A♣Q♦ All in
Demarco Howard: 8♥8♦

Howard's pair of eights held through the flop of K♥3♦9♥, but Gutierrez let out a loud yelp when the A♠ came on the turn. After the 10♠ landed on the river, Gutierrez' pair of aces were good enough for him to more than double his chips.

Player	Chips	Progress
Jose Fernando Garcia Gutierrez	16,500,000 16,500,000	16,500,000
Demarco Howard	15,150,000 8,850,000	8,850,000

Double Up for Yaginuma

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Jesse Yaginuma moved all in from middle position for 1,650,000 and was called by Tuan Pham in the big blind.

Jesse Yaginuma: A♦3♣ All in
Tuan Pham: 9♠6♠

A pretty safe flop for Yaginuma of 10♣A♣8♥ and with the 3♥ coming on the turn and the 3♠ on the river there was a bit of overkill with him hitting a boat on the river!

Player	Chips	Progress
Tuan Pham	6,000,000 4,300,000	4,300,000
Jesse Yaginuma	4,500,000 100,000	100,000

Trayner Flops a Pair

Gabrielle Barredo

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Malcolm Trayner and Noam Muallem, at risk, were all-in in a heads-up showdown.

Noam Muallem: K♥Q♦ All in
Malcolm Trayner: Q♣J♣

Although ahead preflop, Muallem lost his lead when Trayner spiked a pair on the J♠2♦3♥ flop. Still with minimal outs, the runout of 7♠6♥ didn't improve his hand ending his tournament run and giving Trayner his bounty.

Level 35 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Chase Johnson opened for 1,500,000 under the gun and got called by Daniel Strelitz in the big blind.

The flop came 6♥8♠2♠ and Strelitz check-raised to 3,500,000 after Johnson bet 1,600,000. Johnson took a few seconds to consider his options with only 6,000,000 behind. He decided to surrender both his hand and the pot to Strelitz.
