Mariani Pressures Hegedus, Angelil Busts Gilmore

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

There was a raise to 25,000 in early position and Julien Mariani three-bet to 66,000 on the button. Juliet Hegedus stuck in a four-bet to 200,000 in the small blind which got the original raiser to fold. However, Mariani five-bet shoved all in, potentially creating the largest pot of the tournament thus far. Hegedus mulled it over for a couple of minutes but finally decided to fold.

On the next hand, Hegedus raised to 25,000 on the button and Rene-Charles Angelil three-bet to 125,000 in the small blind. Jeffrey Gilmore four-bet shoved all in for 172,000 in the big blind which got Hegedus to fold but Angelil made the easy call.

Jeffrey Gilmore: 88All in
Rene-Charles Angelil: AK

It was a coin flip and the 1042 flop favored Gilmore with the pair of eights. The 6 on the turn was also safe but the K on the river gave Angelil a pair of kings to send Gilmore packing.
