Hand #19 – Corwin Cole

The button is with Corwin Cole in Seat 9. From the cutoff position, David Daneshgar opened with a raise to 77,000. Corwin Cole then reraised to 225,000 from the button. The blinds quickly folded as did Daneshgar to give the pot to Cole.

Hand #18 – Andrey Zaichenko

The button is with David Daneshgar in Seat 7. Matt Matros raised from under the gun to 75,000, and Andrey Zaichenko reraised to 200,000 from middle position. It folded back around to Matros, who let it go as well.

Hand #17 – Corwin Cole

The button is with Jeff Courtney in Seat 7. The action folded around to David Daneshgar who completed from small blind and Corwin Cole checked his option in the big blind.

They saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Daneshgar checked and Cole bet out 47,000 which was enough to force a fold and take down the pot.

From the Bleachers

Farzad Rouhani
Farzad Rouhani
While many here at the Rio are preoccupied with the Main Event starting tomorrow, we've nevertheless attracted a decent-sized crowd for today's final table. Several players have supporters here, including Farzad Rouhani, who high-fived a few after doubling up with that rivered flush a short while ago.

Rouhani is seeking his second WSOP bracelet this summer, having won Event No. 10, the $2,500 Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi-Low-8 or Better event.

Hand #15 – David Daneshgar

The button is with Andrey Zaichenko in Seat 4. David Daneshgar raised it up to 77,000 from under the gun and it folded to Jeff Courtney in the big blind who made the call.

The flop came {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades}. Courtney checked to Daneshgar who fired out 113,000. Courtney gave it up and Daneshgar took down the pot.

Hand #14 – Andrey Zaichenko

The button is with Farzad Rouhani in Seat 3. Corwin Cole raised to 75,000, and Andrey Zaichenko moved all in for 454,000 from the small blind. Scott Sitron folded his big blind, and the action was back on Cole.

Cole did a bit of arithmetic, counting out loud that it would be 379,000 to call. After a minute more of brooding, he made the call.

Zaichenko {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Cole {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The flop came {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{K-Spades}, giving both a pair. The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, giving Zaichenko a flush draw. The river was the {K-Clubs}, saving Zaichenko who doubled up to 970,000 on the hand.

Hand #12 – Jeff Courtney

The button is with Dan Heimiller in Seat 1. Andrey Zaichenko raised from early position to 81,000, and Jeff Courtney pushed all in behind him for 770,000. The others folded, and Zaichenko tanked for a while before letting it go.
