Three More Fall

Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Clock Called, Gold Prospers

Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Jamie Gold raised to 1,000,000 on the button, and both Allen Lanier and Laurance Essak called in the small and big blind.

The action checked to Gold on a A810 flop, continued with a bet of 2,000,000. Lanier quickly folded, but Essak had a decision on his hands.

After taking a few minutes and not seeming any closer to a plan, Gold called the clock on Essak. As his 30 seconds ticked down towards zero, Essak folded, flipping his A face up as he did.

"Thanks rail!" she said.

"I'm Going to Go After You" Saechao Says Before Jamming Into Duveau's Aces

Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Julien Duveau
Julien Duveau

There is bad blood between Kao Chieng Saechao and Julien Duveau, but only one of them is still in the tournament after a bit of instant karma.

The two had clearly had an earlier dispute when PokerNews observed Saechao open-jam in late poistion into the big blind of Duveau. When Duveau folded, Saechao proudly showed 7x2x to his rail and warned that he was going to keep coming after Duveau.

"Every time you're big blind I'm going to go after you. Until you go home," Saechao said the very next hand after peeling his cards.

"Great, keep doing it," replied Duveau.

Saechao then announced all in and Duveau nearly beat him into the pot from the small blind.

Julien Duveau: AA
Kao Chieng Saechao: A10 All in

Duveau had run into aces but was still determined.

"It's OK. I'll get him," he said.

The flop of 2810 gave Saechao a fighting chance, but the runout of 8Q left him humbled as he left the table.

"Good game, guys. Good luck everybody."

Gold Gets One Through, Nataraj Gets It Right

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

Allen Lanier limped in under the gun, which tempted Samuel Rannou on the button and Prashanth Nataraj in the small blind to do the same. Jamie Gold then moved all in from the big blind for roughly 6,500,000, which received quick folds from Lanier and Rannou.

Nataraj eventually folded too, saying, "I should have jammed."

Gold flipped over AQ, to which Nataraj responded, "Okay, I shouldn't have jammed."

Are These Rivers Scripted?

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

The action was joined as Mario Fauceglia was facing a three-bet to 4,000,000 from Jeevan Lobo in the big blind, after he himself had raised in the cutoff. Fauceglia responded with a four-bet all-in for 9,100,000, and Lobo went deep into the tank. After taking his time to make a decision, Lobo called.

Mario Fauceglia: AK All in
Jeevan Lobo: JJ

Fauceglia stood from his seat to get a better view of the board, and he liked what he saw on the AA4 flop.

The 10 turn had Fauceglia cruising to a double up, but the J river saw Lobo regain his preflop lead with jacks-full, sending Fauceglia crashing to the rail.

Another River, Another Broken Heart

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

Julien Duveau raised to 800,000 in middle position, and promptly faced an all-in of 2,575,000 from Santhosh Amingad in the cutoff. When the action folded back to Duveau, he called.

Santhosh Amingad: KK All in
Julien Duveau: A7

Everything was going to plan for Amingad as the board was dealt to a 1023Q turn, but the A landed on the river to move Amingad from first to worst, putting an end to his deep run.
