Hendrix Shoves into Fan

Ryan Lashmar

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Chih Fan opened to 120,000 from the small blind with A♥5♠ and Adam Hendrix defended from the big blind with 6♦5♦.

The flop came 2♦4♥8♥. Fan bet 105,000 and Hendrix called.

Fan continued for 250,000 on the K♦ turn. Hendrix shoved his combo draw, covering Fan who had 1,000,000 behind. Fan mucked his hand and the pot was pushed to Hendrix.

Tim Baker

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Maksim Pisarenko raised under the gun to 85,000 before Alexander Villa jammed for 450,000 from the button. Once the blinds folded, Pisarenko called.

Alexander Villa: K♦Q♦ All in
Maksim Pisarenko : A♦Q♠

Villa was dominated by Pisarenko heading to the A♠K♥10♠ flop, which improved both players to a pair. The 6♠ fell on the turn, taking away a few of Villa's outs. The 10♥ came on the river, and Villa was gone from the Main Event.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Dai Ishibashi was all in for 420,000 against Isaac Haxton.

Dai Ishibashi: K♦Q♣ All in
Isaac Haxton: A♦Q♥

Ishibashi was dominated but both players made pairs on the A♣K♠10♥ flop and the K♣ turn gave Ishibashi the lead before the 4♦ river bricked off to earn him a double.

At the next table, Sebastian Schulze appears to have the chip lead with a stack of 10,000,000.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Viktor Blom moved all in as first to act for 325,000. Andrew Hedley made the call in late position before the rest of the table got out of the way.

Viktor Blom: A♣K♦ All in
Andrew Hedley: A♥Q♦

The 5♦5♣3♣9♠ board brought some chop outs with it, but the river came the safe A♠ as Blom's kicker remained in play for the double-up.

Padron Left Shortest at Table

Frank Visser

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fabrice Bigot was in middle position and raised to 65,000. Joey Padron called on the button, and called Bigot's continuation-bet of 50,000 on the 6♣A♦K♣ flop as well.

Bigot slowed down on the 8♠ turn, checking before calling Padron's bet of 115,000. The 7♦ river was quickly checked to showdown.

Bigot tabled A♠10♠ for a pair of aces. Padron had the same pair, but his A♣3♣ was outkicked and disappeared into the muck.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fabrice Bigot raised to 65,000 in the hijack with A♠8♣. Yuchen Chen looked down at 10♦7♣ in the cutoff, which he three-bet to 190,000.

Chen's aggressiveness panned out as Bigot quickly folded once the action had reached him again.
