Wu Sails Ahead

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Play was underway with two players Huanglin Wu, in the big blind, all-in for 1,050,000 and at risk, against Simon Britton, on the button.

Huanglin Wu: 108 All in
Simon Britton: KJ

The opponents got on their feet the moment the flopped dropped 81010 giving Wu a full house. Britton still had minimal outs to turn things around but the dealer completed the board with a 6 turn and a 7 river, sealing Wu's double up.

Sia Collects a Massive Pot

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Russell Giordano raised from early position to 650,000, and Joseph Sia moved all in from the hijack for 3,275,000. Jason James moved all in for 450,000 more from the button, and Giordano called both players.

Joseph Sia : QQ All in
Jason James: KK All in
Russell Giordano: AK

Sia called for a queen, and that is what he received with the board 24Q45, and Sia would scoop a massive pot with his full house. James scooped a small side pot for 850,000.

Sia Continues to Soar Up the Counts

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Joseph Sia opened on the button, and Kory Kallenbach was forced in from the big blind to be at risk.

Kory Kallenbach: 83All in
Joseph Sia: A8

Kallenbach requested his cards at least be live when he tabled his hand, but he found out he wasn't even granted that as Sia had his hand dominated.

The flop gave Kallenbach little to work with when it fanned out 455.

Kallenbach's hopes of a backdoor straight draw were removed when the Q turn peeled.

Runner Runner for Zaidman to Stay Alive

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Omri Zaidman
Omri Zaidman

Simon Britton made it 500,000 to play from middle position and action folded to Omri Zaidman in the small blind who three-bet all in for 2,200,000. Britton snap-called.

Omri Zaidman: AQ All in
Simon Britton: AA

No help for Zaidman on the 8J2 flop but when the 10 peeled off on the turn pleas of 'King, king' rang out. The dealer duly obliged and peeled off the K as the river to make Zaidman his straight and crack Britton's bullets to survive.

Brett Kennedy: QJAll in
Ros Sok: 22

Kennedy needed to see some paint to stay alive, but the help never arrived when the board ran out of 5877A to keep Sok's ducks ahead and eliminate Kennedy from contention.
