Level 9 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Seven-Card Stud

Ismael Bojang: / /
Jason Stockfish: / /
Eric Crain: / /

A three-way pot saw Jason Stockfish take on short stacks Ismael Bojang and Eric Crain. The latter shoved on seventh street for his last 1,400, and Stockfish folded. Bojang just grinned with even fewer chips behind, and the entire table laughed. "I can beat queens and a bluff," he said before folding.

Crain flashed for said bluff, and Bojang let out an expletive. He folded the next two hands.

Ivan Zarate: / /
Jason Stockfish: / /
Opponent: / /

Shortly thereafter, Stockfish completed, and Ivan Zarate called. Bojang called all in for just 200 with a king showing before another player with a ten raised. Stockfish reraised, and Zarate moved all in for 3,600 total. The opponent called with some 1,600 chips behind, and Stockfish called, then also called the all in after fourth street with rolled up queens. Bojang didn't catch anything, nor did the other player in the hand, while Zarate caught a low, and Stockfish claimed the high half.

Zarate's luck didn't last long; he got it in three ways with Mihails Morozovs and Ashish Gupta. The former got the low half, Gupta the high, and Zarate was eliminated as Brandon Shack-Harris arrived at the table.
