Villaman Cooks Demersseman Before Break

Adam Demersseman raised to 1,200 from under the gun and was called by Glenn Miller in middle position and Ray Villaman, who defended his big blind. The flop came and Villaman checked to Demersseman, who made a continuation-bet of 1,800. Miller folded.

Villaman called and the turn came . Villaman checked and Demersseman continued, firing another 3,000. Villaman check-raised to 8,000, putting action back on Demerssemean, who went into the tank.

Moments later, Demersseman announced he was all in, cutting out his stack to a total of 28,100. Villaman thought for over two minutes as time expired in Level 6 and the break began. After another minute, he reluctantly threw in chips to call.

Adam Demersseman:
Ray Villaman:

Villaman had found himself making the right call with top pair, top kicker, needing to fade the remaining kings and sixes in the deck to score the knockout. The river came to do just that and the dealer leaned forward and scooped Demersseman's chips over to Villaman as Demersseman got up from the table, finding himself dry on chips as the rest of the tournament had gone on break.
