Joseph Berg

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

Jie Xu raised to 250,000 from the button, and Dathan Kuppin three-bet to 1,050,000. Xu then moved all in for 3,050,000, prompting Kuppin to tank for a while before eventually making the call.

Jie Xu: 3♥3♣ All in
Dathan Kuppin: A♣10♦

The board ran out 6♠K♥2♥5♦4♥, adding a nice boost to Xu's stack.

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

In blind-on-blind action, Daniel Lakerveld was all in from the small blind against big blind Richard Kwon, who had the smaller stack of 1,450,000 chips.

Richard Kwon: A♥J♠ All in
Daniel Lakerveld: A♦10♥

Richard Kwon had the higher kicker to go with his ace, and that proved to be the difference in a baby board runout of 6♣3♥5♠8♦5♦.

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

Julien Duveau raised to 200,000 from under the gun only to face a three-bet from Erik Cajelais in late position to 500,000. Duveau called.

The flop came 3♣3♦9♠, and Duveau check-called Cajelais' 325,000 continuation bet. The J♣ came on the turn, and again Duveau checked to Cajelais, who now bet out for 725,000. Duveau called.

The river brought the J♥, and Duveau checked for a third time to Cajelais, who now moved all-in for 1,095,000, which sent Duveau deep into the tank. He eventually folded his cards. "Show the bluff" came a call from another player at the table, enticing Cajelais to table his Q♦K♥ as he was shipped the massive pot.

Player	Chips	Progress
Erik Cajelais	4,350,000 4,231,000	4,231,000

Julien Duveau	2,100,000 1,345,000	1,345,000

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

Bradley Smith raised to 250,000 in the cutoff and was called by Aneris Adomkevicius in the small blind.

The dealer spread a Q♣6♥6♠ flop, Adomkevicius checked, Smith bet 350,000, and Adomkevicius called.

Action checked through on the 9♠ turn and 5♠ river. Adomkevicius tabled A♥A♣ to the surprise of Smith, which was good for the winning hand.

Player	Chips	Progress
Bradley Smith (US)	3,100,000 1,999,950	1,999,950
Aneris Adomkevicius	2,200,000 780,000	780,000

Fawcett Is Flowing Again

Jerome Solomon

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

Justin Fawcett, in the room where two days ago the bracelet ceremony for his winning Event #85: $600 Ultra Stack was held, is at it again.

Fawcett knocked out two competitors in three minutes, to up his chipstack to what would have been the second most at the recent break.

In the first hand, Luis Manzo went all-in against Fawcett, who had Q♠Q♦ that held.

Jimmy Setna was the victim in the second hand.

With a little over one million chips in the pot, Fawcett bet 450,000 from under the gun to a board reading 5♠7♦Q♥6♦ at the turn. Setna raised all in with 2,075,000.

Fawcett thought about it, talked about it, saying he knew was behind but it was time to gamble, so he made the call.

Jimmy Setna: 5♥5♦ All in
Justin Fawcett: A♦K♦

"Whoa, it's worse than I thought," Fawcett said, when he saw Setna had flopped a set of fives.

But the river was still to come and the 3♦ landed to give Fawcett an ace-high flush and the massive pot.

Kaihung Hu went all in and was at risk from the cutoff for 615,000, Andrew Dean reraised to 1,300,000 from the small blind and the big blind folded.

Kaihung Hu: K♦9♦ All in
Andrew Dean: A♥9♥

The final board read 6♥8♣2♣10♥Q♣, sending Hu to the rail.

Sese Sent Packing

Myles Phago

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

David Hudson raised from under the gun to 160,000 and action folded to Mariedward Sese on the button who three-bet all in for 970,000. Hudson didn't take long and made the call.

Mariedward Sese: 5♣5♠ All in
David Hudson: A♦K♣

Not the best flop of 3xA♣K♥ for Sese, and when the 8♥ fell on the turn, he was drawing thin. The 4♥ was no help, and he was sent to the cage.
