Ghaneian Takes a Hit

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

It started rather innocent with a raise to 65,000 by Arash Ghaneian and ended with the shove of Kevin Calenzo out of the small blind for more than 1.3 million. Ghaneian looked him up and tapped the table once the cards were turned over. "No matter how it ends, nice hand," Ghaneian added.

Calenzo: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}
Ghaneian: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

After the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop, Calenzo put a deadlock on the hand, and the {4-Hearts} turn made his double-up official. "Pay the man his money," Ghaneian said before the {3-Diamonds} river completed the board. Calenzo's all-in was for 1,372,000, and that cut Ghaneian's stack in more than half.

Antonio Della Sciucca was spotted leaving his seat while Damian Salas scooped yet another big pot. According to players at the table, Salas limped, Della Sciucca raised to 120,000, and Salas limp-raised before snap-calling the shove of the Canadian.

Della Sciucca tabled pocket queens and Salas had pocket kings. The board came {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and Salas' full house left Della Sciucca empty-handed.

"You are the only one I know that limp-raises," a player at the table remarked to Salas.

With that pot, Salas is back in the lead in this tournament.

Ruslan Gazaev Shows Trips

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Hans Joachim Hein raised in early position, Ruslan Gazaev called in the small blind, and the big blind called. On a flop of {7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, the blinds checked and Hein bet 85,000. Gazaev check-raised to 260,000, the big blind folded, and Hein looked at Gazaev.

"Quads already?" Hein asked.

Gazaev looked surprised. "What?"

Hein called and the {J-Clubs} came on the turn. Gazaev bet 330,000 and Hein stared him down. He folded and told Gazaev to show the bluff.

Gazaev held up his cards next to his head, as if to scratch his ear, and revealed the {10-Spades} before tossing his cards in.

Tracy Nguyen Folds the River, Takes a Hit

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

There was a raise of 100,000 in front of Tracy Nguyen before the flop. She was up against Zu Zhou who reraised, making it 230,000 to go. Nguyen flatted the raise out of position, and the two took to a flop.

On the {K-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop, both players checked. The turn was the {7-Clubs} and Nguyen opted to lead out, putting in a bet of 135,000. Zhou called.

On the {Q-Spades} river, Nguyen decided to check. Zhou cut out a bet of 330,000 and Nguyen dropped into the tank. She thought for several minutes, counting out her stack before she finally decided to let her hand go. Zhou raked in the pot and Nguyen fell to just over 600,000 chips.
