Aces No Good for Deutsch After Cohen Flops the Joint

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 60,000 ante

The details of the early action escaped us while writing the previous hand, but we do know that a big blind-on-blind hand went down between Mike Cohen in the small and Jason Deutsch in the big.

Action was picked up on the river with approximately 2 million in the pot and a board reading {7-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. Cohen bet a hefty 1.575 million and Deutsch called.

Cohen tabled the {9-Clubs}{10-Spades} for the flopped nuts and Deustch flashed the {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} before sending his hand to the muck.

One for Ganzfried

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 60,000 ante

Raymond Ross Jr limped the small blind and Sam Ganzfried exercised his option from the big with a raise to 350,000.

Ross called and then check-called a bet of 275,000 on the {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop.

On the {9-Spades} turn Ross checked again and then folded when Ganzfried bet 450,000.

Nice River for Ross

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 60,000 ante

Raymond Ross Jr raised the button to 250,000 and Sam Ganzfried called from the small blind. Mike Cohen came along from the big and it was three-way action to the {j-Clubs}{a-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop.

Two checks saw Ross bet 325,000 and only Ganzfield called to see the {2-Spades} turn.

Action went check-check and the {q-Hearts} completed the board on the river. Ganzfried checked for the third time and Ross bet 1.325 million. Ganzfried thought long and hard before making the call only to muck when Ross rolled over the {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for rivered Broadway.

Ryan Hagerty Eliminated in 5th Place ($31,396)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ryan Hagerty

Action folded around to Ryan Hagerty in the small blind and he moved all in for 1.325 million, which Raymond Ross Jr called from the big blind.

Raymond Ross Jr: {a-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Ryan Hagerty: {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Hagerty was behind but held two live cards. Unfortunately for him, he saw those live cards go out the window when the {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop paired Ross.

The {k-Hearts} turn gave Hagerty a gutshot straight draw to a jack but he missed as the {7-Spades} bricked on the river.

Brandon Lulov Eliminated in 6th Place ($25,295)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Mike Cohen raised to 250,000 from the hijack only to have Brandon Lulov three-bet jam for 1.88 million from the button. Both blinds folded and Cohen asked for an exact count before spiking in a call.

Mike Cohen: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Brandon Lulov: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

It was a flip with Lolov looking to improve to stay alive. The {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop didn't do it for him, and while the {j-Diamonds} turn didn't either, it did give him an added flush draw to go with his overs.

The dealer burned one last time and put out the {8-Clubs}. With that, the start-of-day chip leader hit the rail in sixth place.
