"Why Do We Play This Game?"; Saaskilahti Stuns Kato

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Go Kato
Go Kato

Wesley Fei raised to 120,000 in middle position and Lauri Saaskilahti three-bet to 360,000 in the cutoff. Go Kato four-bet to 760,000 on the button, and Fei folded, then Saaskilahti moved all in. Kato called for 3,200,000.

Go Kato: AK All in
Lauri Saaskilahti: AK

"Boring," Fei said as both players turned over the same hand and were poised to chop the pot. The flop was anything but boring, however, as Saaskilahti flopped the nut flush on J109. The board ran out 102, and Kato was sent to the rail.

"Why do we play this game? I don't even like seeing that happen to other people," Ali Ayub said.

"You should have fake tanked, ten minutes," Fei said to Kato, who took the beat in stride and still had a smile on his face as he made his exit.

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

In a three-bet pot, Lara Eisenberg in middle position bet 155,000 on a flop of 865. Sam Snead under the gun check-called.

Both players checked the J turn, leading to the 5 river, which was checked by Snead.

Eisenberg fired 360,000 with K10 for king-high, but Snead quickly called with J9 for a pair of jacks to scoop the pot.

Red Against Black

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

Patrick Hagenlocher open-jammed for 1,135,000 in the cutoff, and Justin Manjaresthen shoved a bigger stack from the button. Action folded to Stephen Press in the big blind, who folded as he focused on getting his morning beverage.

"This is the fastest service I've ever seen!" he said in amazement.

Justin Manjaresthen: AJ All in
Patrick Hagenlocher: AJ

"Alright, red versus black!" said Manjaresthen as the cards were flipped.

The board ran out 66285, and the two players chopped up the pot.

Kevin Rand raised to 120,000 and was called by Daniel Hachem on the button, and Fabio Porcino tanked with very few chips behind in the small blind. The clock was called on him before he folded, then Ibrahim Naim called in the big blind.

The KQ2 flop was checked to Rand, who bet 225,000. Hachem raised to 650,000 and won the pot uncontested.

Action folded around to Javier Fernandez who moved all in for 420,000 in the small blind, and Edouard Sacrispeyre called in the big blind.

Javier Fernandez: K5 All in
Edouard Sacrispeyre: KJ

Sacrispeyre had Fernandez dominated and picked up a straight draw on the A910 flop. The 8 turn also gave Sacrispeyre a flush draw, and Fernandez had just two outs heading to the river. He missed the 4, and Sacrispeyre claimed the knockout.

"Next year," Fernandez said on his way to the rail.

Two Bets Gets it Done For Marsico

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

Benjamin Morgan bumped it up to around 120,000 from the hijack, and Justus Marsico was the only player to come along from the big blind.

Marsico check-called a continuation-bet of 100,000 from Morgan on the 10KQ flop, but check-folded to Morgan's second barrel on the 10 turn.

Kampen Eliminated by Campos

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

Table 95 featured the third all-in and call in the opening stages, and this time, Elliott Kampen was at risk from the big blind against Arthur Campos on the button.

Elliott Kampen: A6 All in
Arthur Campos: KK

Kings had been the culprit a few minutes ago, and they would score the knockout again, albeit in more dramatic fashion on the 743A8 runout, which rivered the kings into the nut flush after pairing Kampen's ace on the turn.

Wilson Folds to Sugita's River Bet

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

Three ways to the turn on a board of Q4J3, with around 450,000 already in the pot, Kei Sugita led 140,000 from the small blind. One player folded, but Brock Wilson called from the hijack.

The 9 completed the board, and Sugita followed up with a bet of 170,000. Wilson thought it over for a minute or so before folding, giving up the pot to Sugita.
