The board ran out an uneventful and Soulier was sent packing as Lichtenberger moved even higher atop the leaderboard.
Flop: - check/check
Turn: - check/check
River: - Busquet checked a third time, and Cernuto bet 50,000. Olivier looked him up, and just shook his head when Miami John tabled for the rivered two pair. Cernuto had around 470,000 after the hand. Busquet's still got one of the largest stacks in the room.
Binger opened with a raise from early position. A short stack then moved all in from late position before Mike De Gilio re-raised all in from the blinds. Binger had both players covered and called, taking the table to a three-way showdown.
Binger:
De Gilio:
Shorty:
"Just no queen," Binger pleaded the dealer, willing to concede the smaller main pot in order to win the large side pot. He didn't get his wish; the flop came to give De Gilio a set of queens.
An irate Binger immediately pounced out of his chair. "So sick!" he wailed. "Every ****ing time! How does that happen in every big ****ing tournament I play!"
De Gilio said nothing as the turn and river came blanks, and . He collected both the main pot and the side pot, eliminating the short-stacked player in the process. He's now sitting behind 610,000, while Binger is down to 260,000.
