King's Kings Crash Into Aces

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Nolan King: KK All in
Ihab Ali: AA

King had run kings into aces and couldn't improve as the board ran out 4675J to mark his elimination with the money bubble approaching.

Reid's Main Event Continues

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Terrance Reid
Terrance Reid

With roughly 100,000 in the pot on a board of 41052, Terrance Reid was all-in for his last 120,000 with Jiwoo Hyul being the player trying to bust him.

Terrance Reid: AA All in
Jiwoo Hyul: Q10

Reid was ahead right now with aces, but Hyul had a lot of cards he could hit on the river to send Reid home earlier than he would have liked. The dealer burned a card then slowly delivered the 4 on the river. Reid's aces held up, and he doubled up through Hyul.

Late Night Counts

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Sam Jakubowicz checked the 882A turn for 18,000 and the 7 river was checked for the French player to win the pot with the A5. One table over, Tomas Szwarcberg has even more chips at his disposal and they are among the largest stacks in the field right now.

Near the top of the leaderboard sits Juliet Hegedus, who continues to add chips every other minute to her growing tower.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

The flop came KJ6 and Celaya check-called a 13,000 bet from Girouard.

Both players checked the 6 turn and 4 river. Girouard had two pair, jacks and sixes with AJ but Celaya had kings up with K7 to win the hand.

Liu Wins the Pot but Accepts a Penalty

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action picked up to the completed board of AJ5QA in a pot between Richard Sheils from the small blind and Tian Liu from the big blind with around 75,000 in the middle.

Liu had a bet of 50,000 in front of him before Sheils raised to 130,000, sending Liu deep into the tank.

Over three minutes would pass as Liu eventually revealed the A from his hand and set it on the table face-up. The clock was eventually called as the floor informed Liu to protect his hand, and he eventually called with ten seconds left.

Richard Sheils: 22
Tian Liu: A2

Liu made the right call with trip aces against the bluff of Sheils. The floor then told Liu that he would be on a one-round penalty for exposing his hand, which he graciously accepted as he collected a substantial pot.

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Safiya Umerova

Jeremiah Wheeler opened the action from the hijack with a raise to 18,000, and Safiya Umerova defended her big blind.

The flop came 10Q9, and Umerova checked. Wheeler continued for 32,000, and Umerova stuck around with a call.

Both players checked the 3 turn.

On the K river, Umerova checked once more, and Wheeler launched a sizable bet of 80,000 into the middle. Umerova didn’t hesitate, she called.

With the dealer announcing showdown, Umerova waited patiently, as Wheeler had made the last aggressive move. After a pause, Wheeler finally tabled 65 for a stone-cold bluff. Umerova revealed Q8 for a pair of queens, enough to win the pot.

Neugebauer Rockets Up the Counts Late on Day 3

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Max Neugebauer may have just taken the chip lead late on Day 3!

In a pot that had around 90,000 in it on a 79Q flop, Bin Weng checked from under the gun and Neugebauer bet 25,000 from middle position. Weng called.

A 9 hit the turn and again Went went into check-call mode after Neugebauer fired out 90,000.

When the J put four hearts on the board, Weng checked for a third time. Neugebauer didn't slow down, though, as he put out a bet of 200,000 on the river. Weng went into the tank for some time and counted out his stack to see he had around 650,000 behind. Eventually, he called.

Neugebauer then flipped AA for the nut flush, and Weng launched his cards into the muck.

Trost's Heart Rate Spikes

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Craig Trost
Craig Trost

Corey Hochman opened to 12,000 from late position and Craig Trost called on the button. In the small blind, Stanislav Zegal raised to 65,000 and only Trost called.

On the flop 792, Zegal continued for 45,000 and Trost called.

Zegal checked on the turn 8 and a visible notification popped up on Trost's watch before Trost decided to bet 110,000, earning a call from Zegal.

Both players checked the river 5 and Zegal tabled AQ for ace-high. It was no good against Trost who tabled 1010 for a pair of tens and the midwestern poker player was awarded the pot.

"It was my heart rate notification," Trost said as he raked in the pot, "I got a notice about my heart rate in the middle of the hand."

De Lima Finds a Miracle Turn to Survive

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Nathan Rosinger opened to 14,000 from middle position before Gustavo De Lima jammed for 42,000 from the button, and Rosinger called.

Gustavo De Lima: KQ All in
Nathan Rosinger: A5

The Q appeared in the window, but it was followed by the A4 as Rosinger took a massive lead with top pair and the nut flush draw. However, De Lima would find the miracle K on the turn to make two pair, and he held through the 8 river as his Main Event dream stays alive.

Sirish Shetty: KJ All in
Stephan Nussrallah: AK All in
Benjamin Williams: QQ

The board ran out Q9236 and the set of queens was good for the pot to bring the field two closer to the money.
