Pastor Close, but Doesn't Call

Juan Manuel Pastor (Day 3)
Juan Manuel Pastor (Day 3)

From the button, Team PokerStars Pro Juan Manuel Pastor raised to 14,000. Julien Burnay reraised all in from the big blind for 150,000 and that sent Pastor into the tank. He thought for a couple of minutes, but eventually folded his hand. Pastor claimed he was "very close to calling."

Rosen's Ace-King Holds This Time to Bust Tzerefos

Spiro Con Tzerefos was all in preflop with the {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. He was up against Jamie Rosen holding the {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}, another dominating position for Rosen with ace-king and his opponent on the ropes.

This time, the poker gods were on Rosen's side as the board ran out {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} and he eliminated Tzerefos.

Baroukh Takes One from Jenkins

On the {J-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop, Fowzi Baroukh checked and Benjamin Jenkins bet 15,500. Baroukh check-raised to 36,000 and Jenkins thought it over for a minute or two before making the call.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Baroukh fired out 46,000. Jenkins took his time again, but this time mucked and allowed Baroukh to scoop the chips.

Big Hit to Rosen

Jamie Rosen (Day 3)
Jamie Rosen (Day 3)

Jamie Rosen just took a big hit to his stack as about 50% of his chips were taken away due to a bad beat delivered by Christopher McClung. Here's how it happened.

From under the gun, McClung raised to 13,000 and then play folded to Rosen on the button. He three-bet to 30,500. The two blinds got out of the way and McClung tanked for a minute before reraising to what looked to be 78,000. Rosen immediately moved all in and McClung called.

Cards please.

McClung turned over the {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}, but was dominated by the {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} that Rosen held. McClung was all in for a total of 272,500 in chips while Rosen had about double that to start the hand.

The flop came down {Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and gave McClung a come-from-behind lead. The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Rosen began to count out some chips fearing no help on the river. The river was the {3-Hearts} and that was that. Rosen sent over the chips while McClung ran over to friend Sam Chartier (who is playing the High Roller event) to tell him what happened. He then returned to collect his chips while Rosen could only think of what could've been.

Demjan Waits Until the River to Fire

Miroslav Benes raised to 13,000 and Sandor Demjan called to se the monotone {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop. Benes checked and Demjan checked behind.

The turn was the {A-Spades} and again, both players checked. The {K-Clubs} paired the board on the river and Benes checked. Demjan bet 32,000 and Benes folded.
