Raiche-Marsden Shoves as Jung is Building Huge

Frank Visser

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Sorin Morariu raised to 16,000 preflop and called when Carmen Raiche-Marsden made it 40,000 to go. They both checked the J♥7♦5♥ flop, prompting Morariu to bet 15,000 on the 4♠ turn.

Raiche-Marsden called to the 2♠ river, where Morariu sized up to 22,000. Raiche-Marsden quickly moved all in, and Morariu made a quick fold to give up on the pot.

Meanwhile, Chahn Jung has been building a huge stack on this table, playing over 300 big blinds.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

James Rann shoved for his last 13,000 first to act and was called by Alex Bergfors from directly behind, Kathy Liebert in the hijack, Kosaku Akashi in the cutoff, and Ihab Ali in the big blind for a five-way pot.

Ali checked to Bergfors, who bet 21,000 on the 9♣4♥A♦ flop. Everyone got out of the way and a showdown was held between Bergfors and Rann.

James Rann: 8♦7♠ All in
Alex Bergfors: A♥5♠

"I need runner-runner," Rann said as he revealed his holding.

It was indeed bleak for Rann, and the 3♠ turn left him drawing dead.

The 5♥ river neednessly improved Bergfors to two pair to make Rann's elimination official.

Alex Bergfors	1,250,000 38,000	38,000

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Arnaud Enselme raised to 16,000 from under the gun and Terrance Reid defended from the big blind. The flop fell J♥7♣3♠ and Reid check-called a bet from Enselme.

The turn brought the 6♥ and Reid checked again. Enselme sized up a bet of 62,000 and Reid tagged along for the A♣ on the river. Reid checked for the third time and Enselme shut it down by checking back. Reid turned over 6♣4♣ for a pair of sixes but Enselme had that beat with K♣K♦.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Marijan Rankic moved all in for around 130,000 from middle position and Daehyung Lee put him at risk in the big blind.

Marijan Rankic: A♦K♦ All in
Daehyung Lee: J♦J♣

Rankic was racking for his tournament life and took the lead on the 9♥K♥4♦ flop with top pair. The Q♥ turn left him a card away from a double up, but Lee spiked the J♥ on the river to make a set and send Rankic to the rail.

Sava Krink

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Joseph Altman moved all in from early position for his last 105,000, and action folded around to Yinan Zhou on the button. After a moment of thought, Zhou made the call and the cards went on their backs.

Joseph Altman: 4♥4♦ All in
Yinan Zhou: A♥A♠

Altman stood up, likely assuming his run was over against Zhou’s pocket aces. He didn’t even watch the flop, but when he looked back at the table, the 4♣3♠Q♦ board was already out, and he realized he had flopped a set.

The 6♥ turn and\J♣ river changed nothing, and Altman completed a surprise double-up, keeping his tournament hopes alive.

Player	Chips	Progress
Joseph Altman	230,000 67,000	67,000
Yinan Zhou	117,000 113,000	113,000

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Matthew Frankland, a British high roller, was eliminated in 1,462nd place on Day 4 in the $10,000 buy-in World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, one spot shy of the money. He won't be going home empty-handed, however. Far from it.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a flop of 4♦9♣5♣, Gary Floyd was all in for around 50,000 with Jose Bogarin making the call to try and send him to the rail.

Gary Floyd: A♠J♠ All in
Jose Bogarin: K♣8♣

Floyd had ace-high, but Bogarin had a pair and flush outs to win. The 8♥ fell on the turn and Bogarin was catapulted into the lead with a pair of eights. Bogarin improved to a flush on the 10♣ river, which meant Floyd was out.

Dorea Wins the Flip

Gabrielle Barredo

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Play was already underway with Andrey Marsavin calling Romulo Dorea's all-in for 117,000.

Romulo Dorea: A♥K♣ All in
Andrey Marsavin: 9♠9♦

Marasavin felt pretty good about his chances when the hands were shown, hoping his hand would win the coin flip.

He hit the table with his fist, visibly frustrated when the flop dropped 7♠K♥10♥. Dorea was potentially looking at a double up but Marasavin's odds increased when the turn J♥ was dealt, giving him a gutshot straight draw.

The river 7♦ ended Dorea's tension as he scooped the pot for a double.

Player	Chips	Progress
Andrey Marsavin	360,000 275,000	275,000
Romulo Dorea	190,000 54,000	54,000
