The flop came {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, and Calvo checked. Moshe bet 140,000, and action was on Pantaleo. He thought for a long while, then raised to 370,000. Calvo folded, and Moshe moved all in. Pantaleo snap-called, and they showed down.

Moshe: {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Pantaleo: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Hand #46: Eric Cloutier raised to 150,000, and James Calvo called from one seat over. Eddy Sabat moved all in from the button, and Griffin Abel moved all in out of the big blind. Cloutier also announced, "All in," and that forced out Calvo.

Eddy Sabat: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Griffin Abel: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Eric Cloutier: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

Sabat walked over to his rail and said, "I need a nine," and sure enough, that's what showed up on the {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop. The {4-Clubs} turn changed nothing much, and the {K-Spades} river saw Cloutier go from best hand preflop to worst hand at the end of the showdown. Sabat tripled up for 845,000, shouting, "Let's f***ing go," and Abel was left with 45,000 and the small blind next.

Hand #47: Abel was all in blind from the small blind for 40,000, and while Gaurav Raina raised to 135,000. Asi Moshe moved all in from the button, and Raina folded.
