Kassouf Gets Another Penalty

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
William Kassouf
William Kassouf

Will Kassouf was having another heated discussion with tournament director Dennis Jones. "Alright, I'm all in," he said as he shoved for his last 3,500,000 in early position, going right back to arguing. The rest of the table folded and Kassouf showed AJ.

"You call the clock on me after 30 seconds. I let the rest of you play an 11-minute hand. I don't call the clock once, because I'm not a little bitch like the rest of you," Kassouf told his tablemates. That comment made Jones hand him another one-round penalty, threatening to make it two rounds if he continued.

"Enjoy your one round. When I come back, you're all finished. God bless America," Kassouf shouted as he was escorted by security away from the table.

In the meantime, Adam Hendrix had opened to 800,000 in middle position with KJ and Kenny Hallaert called in the small blind.

Hendrix bet 800,000 on the J73 flop and Hallaert called. Hendrix then bet 3,000,000 on the 2 turn, and Hallaert quickly folded KQ.

Guerra Wins Blind Battle

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

The action folded to Kohei Arai, who called in the small blind. Lautaro Guerra, in the big blind, checked.

On the A82 flop, Arai check-called the 500,000 bet of Guerra.

Guerra again bet on the 2 turn after Arai checked, this time for 1,400,000, and Arai made the call.

Once more, Arai checked on the J river, and Guerra fired a third time, this time for 3,500,000. Arai thought about it for a while and went into the tank for over several minutes, probably because of the discussions at the neighboring table. In the end, he made the fold, giving up on the pot.

Pupo Survives With a River Chop

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Giovanni Pupo
Giovanni Pupo

Will Kassouf was in the big blind and still serving his penalty as action folded around to Kenny Hallaert who moved all in from the button. Giovanni Pupo took a few minutes before calling for his last 4,850,000 in the small blind.

Giovanni Pupo: K5 All in
Kenny Hallaert: K9

Pupo desperately needed to come from behind to survive, while Hallaert seemed utterly unconcerned and went along eating his dinner.

The 433 flop left open the possibility of a chop, while the turn was the 3. The A river meant both players were playing the trip threes with ace-king kicker, and they chopped the pot.

Power Hero-Calls At the Wrong Time

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Luka Bojovic
Luka Bojovic

Off a short stack, Adrien Zychowski folded the 66 and Chad Power raised to 800,000 with the AK, Luka Bojovic called with the A9 in the big blind. On the 862 flop, both players checked to see the 9 on the turn and Bojovic now over-bet for 3,200,000 to pick up a call from Power.

The river paired the board with the 9 and Bojovic bet 8,200,000 into a pot of 8,600,000 with his trips nines to send Power into the tank. It was for nearly all of his chips and Power indeed hero-called with his ace-king high bluff catcher to drop all the way to one and a half big blinds on the pay jump bubble.

Iachan Has Trips

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Daniel Iachan AQ kicked off the action with an open-raise to 800,000 and picked up three callers.

Two players checked to Lautaro Guerra KJ on the A210 flop, and Guerra bet 1,500,000. Only Iachan stuck around to see the 5 turn, where both players opted to check.

On the A river, Iachan took his time before firing out a bet of 4,500,000, which prompted a fold from Guerra.

Octavian Voegele Eliminated in 36th Place ($240,000)

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Octavian Voegele
Octavian Voegele

Octavian Voegele raised to 2,325,000 from early position and left himself with just 25,000 behind. Muhamet Perati was in the cutoff and called.

They saw a flop of 79Q, where Voegele checked and Perati bet 25,000. Voegele took some time, rechecked his cards, and faked a fold.

"What if they slipped?" asked Ruben Correia.

"If they slipped, it's what's meant to be," Voegele responded before he tossed in his last chip.

Octavian Voegele: K10 All in
Muhamet Perati: 1010

Voegele did have outs with a king or a jack, but the 32 runout didn't offer any assistance, which left him on the rail in 36th.

Chad Power Eliminated in 35th Place; Adrien Zychowski Eliminated in 34th Place ($300,000 each)

Adrien Zychowski
Adrien Zychowski

From under the gun, Chad Power made his move and committed the last 650,000 after he had secured the pay jump. Tony Gregg then three-bet to 1,400,000 and he also called the shove by Adrien Zychowski for 3,800,000.

Chad Power: AQ All in
Adrien Zychowski: 77 All in
Tony Gregg: AK

The K85 flop vaulted Gregg into the lead, which he retained on the Q turn. Power needed a queen survive while Zychowski was looking for a seven. Neither came with the 9 river to send Power and Zychowski to the rail for $300,000 each.
