Level 33 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Andreas Putz raised from under the gun, and only Gregory Fournier made the call from the button.

Putz elected to check on the 9♠K♣Q♦, and Fournier took the opportunity to take over the betting lead, doing so for 1,000,000.

Putz seemed curious about the bet, but ultimately chose to concede the pot and returned his cards to the dealer.

Level 33 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Sasidhar Bobba: 9♣9♥ All in
Rafi Elimelech: A♦7♦

Elimelech pulled ahead on the A♣Q♦5♥ flop, pairing his ace. The 6♥ turn and K♣ river offered no help to Bobba and he was sent to the rail.

Nikolai Tulim open-shoved in the cutoff for 2,875,000, holding A♣7♠ and after a few minutes of thinking, Ryan Hall made the call in the big blind with K♣10♥.

Hall found a board 8♦10♠4♣3♥Q♥ to give him a pair of tens and eliminate Tulin in the process.

Henricks Knocks Out Rivas

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Erick Torres

Level 32 : 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

David Rivas opened the hand with an all-in from early position to 3,200,000. The table folded to William Henricks in the small blind, who elected to call to put Rivas at risk.

David Rivas: A♥7♣ All in
William Henricks: A♣K♣

Henricks had Rivas in deep trouble, but the flop created some chop outs when it came 4♥10♣4♣.

The turn was bad news for Rivas when the K♥ rolled over to end his chances at survival. The meaningless 6♦ river ended the hand and eliminated Rivas.
