Haxton Can't Triple After Six-Minute Tank

Connor Richards

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Johan Schumacher opened to 200,000 in middle position and Isaac Haxton three-bet to around 1,400,000 from the cutoff with just a single 5,000 chip behind.

Jose Bogarin called in the big blind and Schumacher re-shoved to send Haxton into a deep tank with a pay jump looming.

"Feel free to call the clock on me when you think it's been enough time," Haxton told his tablemates repeatedly.

A few minutes into Haxton's tank, it became apparent that Bogarin had also been in the tank. Not knowing Haxton had chips behind, Bogarin folded out of turn. After several more minutes of tanking, Yuchen Chen called the clock and Haxton called.

Johan Schumacher: A♦K♥ All in
Isaac Haxton: 3♣3♦

"I was hoping it would be ace-king," Haxton said as the board ran out 9♥A♠Q♥5♥K♠ to mark his elimination. Despite the holdup, he missed the pay jump.

It wasn't until after the hand that Bogarin realized he had acted out of turn.

"Ohhhhh," he said with a look of shock as he touched his face.

Wasnock Fills Up to Send Yang Home

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

John Wasnock opened 10♠10♣ to 250,000 from the hijack and Kai Yang called in the big blind with Q♦J♥.

Both flopped well on 3♦9♣10♥ as Yang hit an open-ender and Wasnock made top set. Yang checked it over and Wasnock continued with a bet of 200,000. Yang had 1,300,000 in his stack and made it 775,000, Wasnock shoved, and yang called off the rest.

Yang needed a king or an eight, but was left dead on the 9♦ turn as Wasnock made a boat. A Q♠ on the river was just a formality, and Yang headed to the exit just before dinner.

Huge Hero-Call Propels Sudell to Big Stack

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Christian Zetzsche

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The hand started with a raise to 225,000 by Kenny Hallaert and Derek Sudell called in the hijack before Jarod Minghini came along on the button. The J♥10♦2♥ flop was checked by Hallaert and Sudell bet 200,000. That was raised to 650,000 by Minghini and Hallaert folded while Sudell called.

Heads-up to the 5♣ turn, Sudell checked before he called a bet of 1,800,000 by Minghini and they headed to the 2♦ on the river.

Sudell checked again and Minghini moved all-in with the covering stack. By then, the hand had lasted only four minutes and Sudell was sent deep into the tank. The camera crew rushed by to film the action from multiple angles.

After six minutes, Arsenii Karmatckii called the clock on Minghini after he was stuck on only seven blinds - having lost a monster pot to Minghini not long ago.

During the thirty second count down, Sudell said "I don't think I can fold ... . Deuce deuce?! Should have three-bet pre," while he was on the clock. With two seconds left, Sudell splashed in chips for the call and Minghini showed the J♠10♠ for jacks and tens.

Sudell's Q♦Q♠ for queens and deuces were good as he secured the double for 3,735,000 on the river.

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Octavian Voegele filled in a few details after busting Wagner Wysotchanski in a massive pot.

Voegele opened to 200,000 in middle position and was called by Thomas Eychenne in the hijack, Wagner Wysotchanski on the button, and big blind Pedro Padilha.

The flop came 9♣Q♣8♣ and Voegele bet 200,000. All three opponents called to the A♦ turn.

Action then checked to Wysotchanski on the A♦ turn and he bet 1,300,000. Only Voegele called and the Q♦ fell on the river. Wysotchanski then bet 1,500,000, Voegele moved all in, and Wysotchanski called for 2,800,000.

Wysotchanski had two eights for a flopped set, but Voegele had rivered a full house with A♣Q♠ to win the pot and send Wysotchanski to the rail.

Freitas Passes the Test, Approaching 13,000,000

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Richard Freitas opened to 250,000 with K♠10♥ from the button and Mounir Tajiou three-bet to 675,000 out of the small blind with A♥J♦. When it got back to Freitas, he dropped in the call.

They saw a flop of 8♥3♥4♦, where Tajiou continued with a bet of 700,000. Freitas then announced a raise to 1,500,000, and Tajiou quickly called with his ace-high.

A K♦ on the turn was a welcome relief for Freitas as he made a pair of kings, and the action was on him as Tajiou checked. After rechecking his cards, Freitas knuckled back to the 9♥ river. Tajiou wasted no time in announcing a bet of 1,700,000, and Freitas took around a minute before he called.

Tajiou sheepishly flipped his ace-high, and Freitas raked in a pot worth almost 8,000,000 right before dinner break.

Pupo Shatters Ramsey's Dream

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Around 2,000,000 was already in the pot as Nicholas Ramsey and Giovanni Pupo went to the turn on a board of 6♣Q♥7♦K♣. Ramsey then bet 650,000 from the big blind and Pupo moved all in from the cutoff.

Ramsey tanked for several minutes into the dinner break before eventually calling for around 1,200,000 more. He showed 9♣8♣ for straight and flush draws, while Pupo had 7♠7♣ for a set.

The river 3♦ was no help to Ramsey and he slammed the table in frustration. "Sorry, man," Pupo said as the big pot was pushed toward him. A shocked Ramsey remained in his seat for a few minutes with his head resting on the rail before finally heading off to the exit.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Stephen Hesse made it 250,000 from middle position and only Alen Tenorio called out of the big blind.

Tenorio check-called a bet of 200,000 from Hesse on the 5♦9♣2♣ flop.

The K♠ rolled off on the turn, causing Tenorio to check. Hesse bet 450,000, which Tenorio called.

Tenorio knuckled the action over to Hesse for the last time when the 7♦ dropped on the river. Hesse fired out roughly a half-pot bet of 900,000, causing Tenorio to go into the tank. After multiple minutes of thinking, Tenorio slammed in the call.

Hesse showed top pair with K♥J♠ to win the pot, as Tenorio mucked 10♣5♣ for just a pair of fives.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Leon Sturm raised to 240,000 from under the gun with K♥5♥ and Will Kassouf called on his left with 10♣9♣. They went heads-up to a flop of 9♠9♦5♦ and Sturm check-called a bet of 260,000 from Kassouf.

The turn brought the 9♥ and Sturm led out with a bet of 270,000. Kassouf just called after making quad nines and the 7♣ hit the river. Sturm checked this time and Kassouf dropped in a bet of 1,230,000.

"Chop chop," Kassouf said after Sturm was in the tank for over three minutes. "I don't want to call clock." A little more speech play from Kassouf and Sturm looked him up.

"Nuts! Coconuts!" Kassouf shouted as he turned over his hand. "I have ten seconds to act, you can have five hundred and ten."

Jansen's Spin Up Halted by Fan

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Chih Fan raised to 240,000 from the hijack and Bradley Jansen jammed for 920,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Fan, he called.

Bradley Jansen: A♣K♠ All in
Chih Fan: 7♠7♦

Jansen had Big Blick in back-to-back hands, but this time he had to connect with the board to stay alive.

However, it was Fan that hit the flop hard, as it came 6♥2♦7♣ to give Fan top set. The remainder of the runout came 4♣8♣, and Jansen was the next casualty of the Main Event.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Francis Anderson was eliminated a few hands earlier at this table when he shoved for around 900,000 with ace-nine, but Nicolas Enjamio picked up two kings and Anderson failed to improve.

Enjamio, fresh off that knockout, then raised to 250,000 under the gun and Diego Ponce three-bet to 775,000 in the cutoff. Enjamio moved all in for 4,300,000 and Ponce practically beat him into the pot.

Nicolas Enjamio: Q♥Q♣ All in
Diego Ponce: A♣A♠

Enjamio had picked up another big pair, but this time he had run right into Ponce's aces. The board ran out K♣K♦7♣3♥7♥ and Enjamio was sent to the rail.
