Fabrice Bigot
Fabrice Bigot

Alessandro Predaroli limped in from the small blind with 86, and Fabrice Bigot checked his option in the big blind with 103. The Q62 flop checked through to the 6 turn, where Predaroli check-called Bigot's bet of 75,000.

Predaroli also checked the 10 river, prompting Bigot to size up to 180,000. Predaroli then put him all in for 755,000, sending Bigot into the tank.

After a few minutes in the tank, Bigot correctly folded his hand as Predaroli raked in the chips without showing his trips.

Corey Skogrand made it 60,000 to go from early position, and Greg Merson three-bet to 165,000 in the cutoff. When it got back to Skogrand, he shoved 405,000, and Merson quickly called.

Corey Skogrand: KK All in
Greg Merson: JJ

Skogrand was well ahead with his cowboys, and the flop of 1094 kept him in the lead. Merson did turn a flush draw with the 5, but Skogrand survived as the 3 filled out the board.

Moore Leaves Fewster with Fewer Chips

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

Henry Fewster was the first to act and opened to 60,000. The table folded around to Mathew Moore in the small blind, who opted to raise to 220,000. Fewster stewed on his decision before he called.

Both players checked on the 44J flop.

The J prompted Moore to bet 250,000, which led to a fold from Fewster.

The duo saw a flop of 1097, which both checked to the Q turn. Luis reached for chips and threw out 60,000, and Merson raised to 200,000. Luis snap-folded.

Just before the hand, Rahul Rastogi joined in the empty seat and brought a stack of 2,350,000 to play with.

Liu Sends Miles Walking

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

Timothy Miles: AQAll in
Zhao Liu: AK

The flop of AJ3 gave both players a pair but it was the kicker of Liu that kept him in the lead. Miles couldn't find any help on the 8, 5 runout which sent him out of the tournament area.

O'Donnell Runs Out of Chips

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

After his table change, Luke Chung was rewarded a double-up while the dealer announced "we have a spill" as the drink of Paul Gibbons next to Chung had hit the carpet.

For Chung's double-up hand, it was also a dirty job as he cracked the pocket aces of Shaun O'Donnell who then busted shortly after. The cards of O'Donnell were already in the muck while he paid off 820,000 to Chung, who three-bet preflop and called the four-bet shove with KK.

On a board of K853Q, the pocket aces were cracked and Chung also mentioned in table chat after that he had done the exact same thing one day prior.

More for Mizrachi

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

Michael Mizrachi opened to 60,000 from the cutoff and Yves Hallague defended from the big blind.

The flop came 310K and Hallague check-called a 30,000 bet from Mizrachi.

Both players checked the 10 turn and J river. Hallague had A5 for ace-high and a missed flush draw while Mizrachi had a pair with 99 to take the pot.
