The turn brought the and Ivey check-folded to a bet of 2,500 from Statz, leaving himself with 40,600.
Form the cutoff seat, Vadim Trincher raised to 750. Sam Trickett reraised to 3,100 from the button and Trincher made the call.
The flop came down and Trincher checked. Trickett fired 8,000 and Trincher went all in for 18,925. Trickett made the call holding the and Trincher had played the tricky by only flatting the reraise preflop.
The turn brought the and the river the , missing Trickett and giving Trincher a full house. He was able to double up to over 40,000 while Trickett slipped back to about 102,000.
Dave Ulliott bet 18,000 into the river of a board. Shawn Buchanan, who cashed an impressive eight times in Vegas, hesitated, but made the call for his tournament life. Devilfish instantly tapped the table, and Buchanan took it down with .
Whilst Buchanan shoots up to 40,000, Devilfish is struggling again with 18,000 and wearing a frown that would make a bulldog look jovial.
Last year's finalist James Akenhead was spotted walking away from the table with a disappointed look on his face and no chips on the felt. Thanks to my years of watching Columbo, I'm pretty sure he's out.
Three players were in action on the board of . Adam Levy was first and checked to the next opponent. He also checked and then Benjamin Statz bet 3,500. Levy called and the third player folded.
The river brought the and Levy checked. Statz fired 5,000 and after a minute in the tank, Levy paid it off. Statz tabled the for a full house and Levy was knocked down to 13,300 in chips.
Clint Coffee showed little hesitation moving all in on a flop of after he'd been raised (from 2,300 to 5,100) by left-hand-side neighbour Martin Kabrhel. His 24k or so over the line brought an immediate fold from Kabrhel, and one of those 'please show us, go on, go on, go on,' "Show the bluff!" requests which went sadly unanswered.
Four players in consecutive seats tangled in a pot that ultimately led to the double up of Phil Laak.
Benny Spindler lit the fuse, opening from middle-to-late position for 800. Laak called in the hjiack, only for the cut-off to raise it up to 2,400. After a brief pause, Bernard Lee cold-called on the button, and after initial aggressor Spindler had released his hand, Laak joined the party too.
On the flop, Laak announced check, triggering a bet of 3,300 from the button. Both opponents called.
The turn came the , and after the cut-off had led for 5,500 and Lee called, Laak moved all in for around 35,000 more. The cut-off immediately folded, but Lee made the call to bring us to a showdown.
With versus , Lee was drawing deader than Wild Bill, the academic river doing nothing but prolonging the pain.
After Lee had exited stage left, Laak collated his chips and referenced himself as a dinosaur, whilst musing with self-doubt: "I don't know what I'm going to do with all these chips."
Laak, who is inexplicably concealing his newly acquired red Mohawk, is now up to 95,000 and in upbeat mode.
Max Pescatori had a potential all-in moment just now which he sneaked through having given an impression of worry which convinced at least one tablemate that he was at it...
On the turn of a board Pescatori took the initiative threeway betting 2,500 after a check to him. Button Ben Cherif called, as did the checker. The river was the . Check to Pescatori, who bet over half his stack in the form of one red 5k chip. Cherif declined to look him up, as did his other opponent and he was shipped the pot by the dealer.
Eli Elezra: "Anyone here believing him?"
To Pescatori: "You got no quads, you got sh*t."
Pescatori wordlessly turned over and got a "Wow," in return.
