Day: 3
Dao:
Landry:
The turn fell the and the river the and David Dao moved up to nearly 1.7 Million in chips. Landry is down to around 370,000.
The flop fell and Landry checked to Stout. Stout bet out 80,000. Landry then check-raised to 380,000 total. Unlike several hands earlier, Stout did not lay the hand down. Instead, he moved all in for 376,000 more.
About as soon as the all in was announced, Kai got a look on his face as to say, "Really?" His hand slightly pushed his cards towards the muck and then he paused. After a few more seconds, he pushes his cards the rest of the way.
Stout takes over 400,000 of Landry's chips with this hand.
It is unknown whether Dao is just being hyper-aggressive or whether Stout has tightened up his game. In either event, it should be interesting to see how the rest of this level unfolds.
The turn fell the and Landry bet out 300,000. Dao thought for a while, before making a painful looking fold.
Landry said, "Call....Call...." before showing the for what would have been the nut flush.
Landry moved up to 1.45 million in chips after this hand.
The turn fell the and Stout bet out 80,000 chips. Landry called.
The river fell the and Stout bet out 120,000 chips.
Landry sat and thought for a moment and at one point looked like he wanted to swallow his own tongue. Finally, he threw away his hand and Stout picks up a pot worth over 120,000 chips.
Despite the changes on the felt, the mood at the table is still very much light-hearted and casual. Stout and Landry, in particular, are prodding each other back and forth, and Dao too joins in the good-natured ribbing occasionally.
"How does it feel to go from all in with king-three to having a mil and a half?" Stout asked Landry as he eyed up his stack.
"Not bad, not bad," replied Landry with a smirk.
"Yeah, I bet it doesn't suck!" retorted Stout, matching the grin.
At least these guys can still find reason to chuckle with nearly $200,000 on the line.

Eidson announced, "Ace high" and showed . Landry showed for a pair of sixes and Stout mucked.
Leonard Eidson became our 4th place finisher and will take home $61,816 for his efforts.
The flop brought . Eidson announced that he was all in, and just as quickly came the, "I call," from Landry. The two men discussed the fact that they each had a queen, but the kickers were still undisclosed.
Showdown:
Eidson:
Landry:
The turn brought some chop outs for Eidson, as the landed on the board. In good shape to double up, Landry watched the river card bring the , and that earns him twice as many chips as he had before the hand. He has vaulted back up to 870,000, leaving Eidson with just 120,000 funny money.
