Platt Eliminates Sanchez Jr in Massive Cooler

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Jeff Platt
Jeff Platt

Albert Sanchez Jr opened to 40,000 and was three-bet by Jeff Platt to 105,000. The action folded back to Sanchez Jr who made the call to see the flop of K8Q.

Sanchez Jr checked, Platt bet 40,000, Sanchez Jr check-raised to 100,000, and Platt called.

On the turn 7, Sanchez Jr announced he was all in and Platt snap-called to put him at risk.

Albert Sanchez Jr: QQAll in
Jeff Platt: KK

The table was shocked at the huge cooler as both players flopped sets with Platt holding the upper hand. Only a queen would save Sanchez Jr but the river was the 10 to send him to the rail while Platt raked in the pot.

Castillo Doubles with Sevens

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Deirdre Castillo moved all in preflop for around 130,000 and the action folded around to Ryan Heitzman.

"Well, it's always coming four anyways," he said as he made the call and flipped over his hand.

Deirdre Castillo: 77All in
Ryan Heitzman: 44

"No, it's always coming seven!" Tablemate Yunkyu Song corrected, but neither of those came on the 5KQQ8 runout to award Castillo the pot for the double.
