On a four handed table, Joel Vazquez opened for 25,000 on the button. Pablo Mariz replied with an all-in shove for 233,000. Vazquez snap called taking them to showdown.
Pablo Mariz: K♦10♥
Joel Vazquez: Q♠Q♣
The flop came K♠8♠A♦ giving Mariz an immediate pair to beat Vazquez's queens. Vazquez started rubbing his queen on the felt as the dealer completed the board. But no queen came out on the runout 3♠8♣. Mariz scooped the pot to continue his tournament run.
Action was picked up on the river, with the board reading 8♠2♥K♠8♣2♣ and 130,000 chips in the pot. Tzur Levy checked over to Joseph Henry, who announced an overbet of 210,000. Undeterred, Levy then pushed his monster stack into the middle, but had to do so delicately as it was only made up of 1,000 and 5,000 denomination chips. In order not to risk it falling, he only pushed it forward an inch, however, that inch was enough to put Henry in a world of pain.
He asked for a count, and the dealer took a good minute due to the sheer quantity of chips before announcing "456,000". Henry, after a lengthy tank, made the call with his large stack to potentially send Levy home, however the chips would be returned to their owners as Henry showed 8♦7♣ and Levy tabled 6♠8♥ showing that he was saved by the river.
A three-way, pre-flop, all-in confrontation went down at table 628. The players involved were Christian Roberts, Duff Charette, and Thomas Zanot.
Christian Roberts: 10♠10♣
Thomas Zanot: A♣J♣
Duff Charette: A♦Q♥
The runout of 7♠6♠6♣6♥9♦ saw Roberts triple up, and Charette get the remainder of Zanot's stack. Charette holds a comanding lead at his table that is now three-handed.
