Gonzalez Knocks Out Zobiela
Late on Day 1c, Mantas Zobiela had battled with Jose Manuel Gonzalez and won a larger pot to deny the Spaniard a bigger lead.
That may have played a role in the large pot that unfolded this time once more. It all kicked off with a raise by Gonzalez and a large three-bet by Zobiela, which led to the flop. Zobiela bet 80,000 and received a call, which created a pot of around 400,000.
The turn was checked by Zobiela, who had around 670,000 behind and Gonzalez then pushed all-in. A long tank by the Lithuanian followed and he eventually called it off when the clock was called on him.
