Hesse Sends Gibbons into the Blender

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Stephen Hesse
Stephen Hesse

Holding A♦J♣, Stephen Hesse raised to 135,000 from middle position and was three-bet to 400,000 by Paul Gibbons in the hijack with K♠K♦. When it got back to Hesse, he decided to call.

After Hesse checked the flop of A♣10♥7♥, Gibbons placed out a continuation-bet of 275,000. Hasse took a few moments and then called.

Both players checked the 8♦ turn to see the A♥ appear on the river. Hesse led out for 310,000, and Gibbons went into the tank. After deliberating for a while, Gibbons folded and relinquished the pot to Hesse.

Jattin Runs Into a Premium

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Farid Jattin
Farid Jattin

Michael Mizrachi raised to 125,000 in the hijack with K♣J♣ and Farid Jattin three-bet shoved all in for 1,130,000 in the cutoff. Stefan Nemetz picked up a monster in the small blind and just flat-called. Mizrachi let his hand go and the two remaining hands were tabled.

Farid Jattin: K♠9♠All in
Stefan Nemetz: A♦K♥

Jattin found himself in a dominated position and the flop of Q♦6♦5♦ just narrowed his outs even further. The 10♠ on the turn changed nothing as the J♠ on the river gave both players a staight but it was Nemeth with the better of the two.

Nagami Eliminated by Henry

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Joseph Henry
Joseph Henry

Kyosuke Nagami defended his big blind with a short stack behind against Joseph Henry and then got it in after the J♣10♠4♠ flop to get called rather quickly.

Kyosuke Nagami: J♠6♥ All in
Joseph Henry: A♠J♥

The A♦ turn left Nagami drawing dead to the 2♣ river and he was unable to repeat his 21st place finish from one year ago, when he earned $350,000 for his efforts.

Camp Gets Taylor to Fold the River

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
William Camp
William Camp

With 7♦7♥, Esther Taylor raised to 130,000 from middle position. She was called by Murilo Milhomem on the button holding K♦Q♣, and William Camp calling out of the small blind A♥6♥.

Camp knuckled the action over to Taylor on the 9♥4♠A♠ flop, and she bet 185,000. Milhomem folded, but Camp called.

Two checks followed the 4♥ turn and the 3♦ came on the river. Camp bet 250,000, and Taylor went into the tank. Taylor thought better of it and folded, which meant Camp won the pot.

Beckenstein Spikes the River to Bust Augustino

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Joshua Beckstein
Joshua Beckstein

Anthony Augustino opened to 120,000 from the hijack before Joshua Beckenstein made it 350,000 from the small blind. Augustino went into a lengthy tank, checking his cards multiple times before moving all in for 1,125,000.

"Only thing making me pause is the Hollywood," commented Beckenstein, who was expertly handling a fidget cube.

After getting Augsutino's chip count, Beckenstein called.

Anthony Augustino: Q♠Q♣All in
Joshua Beckenstein: K♦Q♥

Beckenstein went from three outs to seven after picking up a gutshot on the 10♣6♠9♦ flop. The 8♦ turn was clean for Augustino but Beckenstein made his straight on the J♣ river, putting a grimace on everyone's face.

Even Beckenstein felt he didn't deserve that one, shaking his head as he collected the pot.

Pisarenko Sends Locquet Deep Into the Tank, Then to the Rail

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Romain Locquet
Romain Locquet

In a blind versus blind battle, Romain Locquet bet 175,000 on a flop of Q♣J♠7♥ and Maksim Pisarenko called.

Locquet bet another 500,000 on the 9♣ turn, but this time Pisarenko raised to 2,475,000. Locquet went deep into the tank, taking several minutes to ponder the decision.

"Take your time. Big pot," Francis Anderson told. After more than five minutes, Locquet eventually stuck in his last 1,500,000 more and turned over Q♠10♦ for top pair and a straight draw, but Pisarenko already had the straight with 10♣8♣.

The 6♣ river improved Pisarenko to a flush and Locquet's Main Event run, which included memorably cracking Jared Bleznick's aces back on Day 1, came to an end.

Peters' Main Event Story Reaches a Sad End

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Donnie Peters
Donnie Peters

Donnie Peters has told many Main Event stories in his long career as a poker journalist, but his own just hit an unhappy conclusion.

Mitchell Hynam had opened to 120,000 under the gun before Peters three-bet to 360,000 in middle position. Hynam came back with a four-bet to 900,000 and Peters moved all in for 2,125,000. Hynam took a minute before calling.

Donnie Peters: K♠K♦ All in
Mitchell Hynam: A♠Q♥

Peters was ahead with his kings and poised for the double up until the flop brought A♥J♠8♦, giving Hynam top pair. The rest of the board ran out 9♥4♣ and Peters was sent to the rail.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Hans Bosman
Hans Bosman

Daniele Primerano made it 160,000 with K♠J♥ from under the gun and Michael Mizrachi called from middle position. Hans Bosman squeezed to 540,000 out of the small blind, and only Mizrachi called.

Heads-up to the J♦2♣8♠ flop that saw Bosman bet 325,000. Mizrachi stuck around with a call.

The A♣ peeled off on the turn and both players checked to see the 3♣ appear on the river. Another two checks followed, which meant Bosman turned over the winner with K♥K♣ for a pair of kings. Mizrachi mucked 7♥7♦, and the pot was sent to Bosman.

Fan Spikes a Set in Three-Way All In

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Chih Fan
Chih Fan

Zhao Liu moved all in for 940,000 in early position and William Camp called in middle position. Action then folded around to Chih Fan in the big blind who announced a raise to 2,000,000. The dealer counted out his stack and found he only had 1,945,000 remaining.

The decision went back to Camp, who took a minute before calling, having both players covered and at risk.

Zhao Liu: 9♦9♥ All in
Chih Fan: J♦J♥ All in
William Camp: A♥Q♦

"Oh my God," Fan said, standing up from his seat and taking a deep breath as he awaited the flop. The dealer turned over K♣J♠7♦ to give Fan a set, while Camp picked up a straight draw.

The turn was the 8♣, while the Q♥ arrived on the river too late for Camp as Fan scooped the pot to double off Camp and send Liu to the rail.

Michael Mizrachi
Michael Mizrachi

Michael Mizrachi raised to 170,000 from early position. Stefan Nemetz called from middle position, and Craig Trost defended his big blind holding Q♠10♠.

The action checked to Nemetz on the J♥7♦3♣ flop, and he bet 160,000. Trost folded, but Mizraci called.

Mizrachi check-called another bet from Nemetz when the 6♥ came on the turn, this time for 500,000.

Both players checked the 4♣ river and Mizrachi won the pot with K♥K♣ for a pair of kings. Nemetz slid A♣9♣ back to the dealer.
