Jason Stockfish

In the first hand of heads-up play, Tyler Smith opened to 600,000, and Jason Stockfish thought for a moment or two before moving all in. Smith called.

Stockfish: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Smith: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Spades}, and Smith won the pot and the tournament with jacks and an ace-queen.

It was all over. Stockfish was eliminated in second place, and Smith was the Champion.

John Dallaire Eliminated in 7th Place ($32,432)

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante
John Dallaire
John Dallaire

Igor Sharaskin raised to 180,000 from the hijack, John Dallaire three-bet the pot to 660,000, Sharaskin repotted to put Dallaire to a decision for the remainder of his stack, and he called to put himself at risk.

Sharaskin: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Dallaire: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

Sharaskin had the preflop advantage and Dallaire needed help from the deck in order to double up. However, the board ran out {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, which wasn't what he was looking for, and his deep run in his very first PLO tournament has now come to a close.

Ryan Wince Eliminated in 8th Place ($24,852)

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
Ryan Wince - 8th Place
Ryan Wince - 8th Place

Marek Ohnisko opened under the gun and Ryan Wince called in the big blind.

The flop was {4-Spades}{k-Spades}{6-Hearts} and a lead out from Wince saw all the chips go in the middle and the cards on their backs with Wince the player at risk.

Wince: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Ohnisko: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{5-Spades}.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} and the river the {9-Diamonds}.

That made a full house for Ohnisko and Wince was the next player to hit the rail.

Igor Sharaskin opened the action and Yves Kupfermunz defended from the big blind.

The flop was {9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{a-Clubs} and Kupfermunz check-called a bet of 180,000.

The turn card was the {8-Clubs} and Kupfermunz led for 625,000. Sharaskin called.

The river was the {7-Clubs} and Kupfermunz moved the rest of his chip in and Sharaskin quickly called.

Kupfermunz: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Sharaskin: {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.

The straight flush for Sharaskin was plenty enough to eliminate Kupfermunz.
