Mariwalla Doubles Through Boivin

Dan O'Hair

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

Rohit Mariwalla shoved for his last 149,000 from middle position and was called by Thomas Boivin in the cutoff to be put at risk.

Rohit Mariwalla: A♥J♥ All in
Thomas Boivin: K♦J♦

The A♦J♣5♣ flop left Mariwalla in commanding shape with top two pair, and the 9♠ turn left Boivin drawing dead.

An irrelevant 7♠ completed the board and Mariwalla was awarded the double as hand-for-hand play continues.

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

Andro Scarpa raised in the cutoff to 16,000, and directly to his left, Tyler Shields moved all in for 40,000. The blinds got out of the way, and Scarpa made the call.

The hands were kept face down as the tournament is on the bubble. Once the floor arrived to oversee and announce the hands and runout, the players revealed their holdings.

Tyler Shields : Q♣Q♦ All in
Andro Scarpa: A♦6♠

It was instant heartache for Shields, as the window card immediately paired his opponent as the flop came down A♠10♣5♣.

The 6♣ turn gave Shields hope, as he now had a flush draw. However, the 7♦ was no help and sealed Shields' fate, sending him to the rail just a handful of places from the money.

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

Hugh Joiner and Craig Pollak built a pot of around 120,000 as they went heads-up to the Q♥Q♠9♣ flop. Pollak then bet 40,000 in early position, and Joiner called in the big blind.

Both players checked the K♥ turn. Joiner then led out for 90,000 on the 6♣ river, and Pollak quickly called.

Joiner showed 5♦5♠, but Pollak had A♥A♦ to win the pot.

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

Christopher Nunes made it 16,000 from the cutoff before Hieu Le three-bet to 50,000 from the button. After the blinds folded, Nunes four-bet ripped it for 167,000. Le called to put Nunes at risk just three places from the money.

Christopher Nunes: Q♦Q♥ All in
Hieu Le: 4♥4♠

Nunes was in great shape to double up. The board ran out 9♠Q♣J♠5♥5♣ to give Nunes a full house, keeping him in the Main Event.

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

Gevork Ketendjian called 8,000 under the gun, Mihai Isar called in the small blind and Brian Yoon was forced all in from the big blind.

The flop came K♠6♥7♦, and Ketendjian bet 12,000. Isar called. Action checked to showdown on the 4♠ turn and A♦ river.

Isar tabled A♣3♦. Yoon peeled the first card and showed the 9♦. He then peeled the second card slowly, but unfortunately for Yoon, it was the 3♠, ending his main event run.

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

Gustavo Barbero raised to 18,000 under the gun. Terence Clee called in the hijack, and Stacey Ceragioli defended her big blind.

Barbero continued for 62,000 on the 3♣4♠3♠ flop, which Clee called. Ceragioli then check-raised to 222,000, folding out Barbero. Clee called after careful consideration, and the 10♣ fell on the turn.

Ceragioli moved her last 80,000 over the line, which Clee snapped off. Once all other tables had finished playing, the cards were revealed.

Stacey Ceragioli: 4♥4♦ All in
Terence Clee : 6♣5♦

Ceragioli's full house left Clee's straight draw without outs, and an inconsequential 9♠ river completed the board before the next hand was ordered to be dealt.

The flop came 5♣K♥9♠ and Mariani check-called a 30,000 continuation bet from Hegedus.

Mariani bet 289,000 on the 4♥ river. Hegedus went into the tank for a couple minutes before folding and Mariani took the pot without showdown.

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

Heads-up on board of 2♠10♥6♥7♠ with approximately 200,000 already in the middle, Scott Margereson checked from the small blind and Will Kassouf checked from early position.

The 8♦ filled the river and Margereson checked again. Kassouf bantered a bit and then stuck 170,000 into the middle — which got a quick fold from Margereson.

Will Kassouf	1,050,000 93,000	93,000
