Crisp Doubles on the Money Bubble

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

While Patrick Mahoney folded all hands and went through the blinds to see his stack reduced to just 4,000, John Crisp moved all in for his last 23,000 from the cutoff, and Jason DeWitt called in the big blind. All other tables finished their hands, and the cards were turned over.

John Crisp: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Jason DeWitt: {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}

The board came {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, and Crisp's nut flush secured the double on the bubble.

Blind Level

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Due to the length of the bubble, the blinds have remained unchanged during hand-for-hand play. Blinds will go up once the money bubble has burst.

Monnette Takes a Hit

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

With about 60,000 in the pot and the board reading {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Spades}, John Monnette was in late position and checked. Nghia Le was in the cutoff and bet 20,000. Monnette called. The turn was the {k-Hearts}, and Monnette check-called a bet of 76,000. The river was the {j-Clubs}. and both players checked.

Le tabled {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a set of nines, and Monnette sent his cards into the muck.

Hochman Survives

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

On the hand just previous to this one Corey Hochman had three-bet Ben Lamb preflop for two thirds of his remaining stack and got it through, showing kings.

In this hand, Ben Lamb opened the action to 18,000 from the hijack. Mike Gorodinsky called in the cutoff and Hochman three-bet pot to 80,000 in the small blind. Lamb folded and Gorodinsky called.

The flop was {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{4-Spades} and Hochman moved in the rest of his chips which was for somewhere around 50,000. Gorodinsky folded and Hochman showed {a-}{a-}{9-}{6-} for a set of aces.

With approximately 60,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {K-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Jeff Madsen checked from the hijack to Michael Kamran, who bet 47,000 from the button. Madsen called.

The river brought the {J-Clubs}, and Madsen checked. Kamran bet 107,000, sending Madsen into the tank. Ultimately, he called, and Kamran tabled {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for the nut flush to win the pot.

Shack-Harris Takes Two Hits

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

The cards of Brandon Shack-Harris were already in the muck, while Vivian Saliba had her stack of 146,000 counted out. Saliba's {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} were still tabled, with the board showing {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. The stacks went in preflop. According to Oliver Weis, Shack-Harris put Saliba at risk with {A-}{K-}{J-}{2-} and failed to get there.

Soon after, Shack-Harris raised from under the gun, and Alberto Fonseca called on the button, as did Weis in the big blind. The flop fell {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, and Weis checked. Shack-Harris bet from under the gun, and Fonseca was the only caller. On the {K-Diamonds} turn and {A-Clubs} river, both players checked, and Fonseca announced a flush. He turned over {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, and Shack-Harris mucked.

Clements With a Big Win

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Scott Clements
Scott Clements

With about 150,000 in the pot and the board reading {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}, Alex Manzano was all in under the gun for roughly 140,000. Scott Clements was also all in from late position, having Manzano covered. Two other players folded on the flop, leaving the action heads-up.

Scott Clements: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Alex Manzano: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs}

Clements was behind but had the nut flush draw and some straight outs to go along with two-pair outs. Manzano was open-ended on the top side and leading with his aces. The turn was the {q-Hearts}, not changing anything, but the {3-Clubs} on the river gave Clements two pair and a huge pot to add to his stack, while simultaneously knocking out one of Chile's best poker players.

Drinan Busts to Gorodinsky

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Zeik Tuit and Connor Drinan have been eliminated.

Ben Lamb raised to 16,000 from the cutoff, and Mike Gorodinsky called on the button, Connor Drinan called from the big blind with some 75,000 behind. The flop came {K-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, and Drinan took a long time before betting. Lamb let it go, and Gorodinsky raised to put Drinan all in.

Drinan called with {K-}{J-}{10-}{2-} for kings and deuces, and Gorodinsky had the {K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. The {Q-Clubs} turn was a scary card for Gorodinsky, as Drinan picked up a lot of outs to improve. Instead, the {5-Hearts} river gave Gorodinsky kings and fives, and Drinan quickly headed out of the Brasilia Room.
