Our fingers are going to get a little break because Jimmy Fradettedufour has been eliminated.

Joey Weissman raised to 32,000 in first position and when it folded around to Fradettedufour in the big blind he made the three-bet. Weissman leaned out of his seat to observe the Fradettedufour stack, moved all-in and Fradettedufour made the call.

Weissman
Fradettedufour

Board: {J-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Spades} {3-Hearts} {3-Spades}

"Show a little emotion," shouted a friend from the rail.

A smile broke out on the face of Weissman.

"That's better."

Fradettedufour is gone and Weissman moves up to 3,440,000.

Weissman Flying

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user169505]

So far today, there is only one man having a greater day than Stephen Reynolds, and that is our chip leader Joey Weissman. Here he is winning more chips.

We joined the action on a flop of {2-Clubs} {8-Spades} {5-Hearts} with Jimmy Fradettedufour (SB) and Joey Weissman (BB) in the hand. It was Weissman who made the first aggressive motion when he bet to 46,000 once checked too. Fradettedufour responded by check-raising to 126,000 and our chip leader just made the call.

Turn: {2-Hearts}

Fradettedufour very quickly dumped a pile of green 25k chips across the line. He then withdrew his hands, squeezed them tight and pressed them into his mouth. That was all you could see because his green hood and black cap covered the rest of his face. On the other side of things our chip leader was bare as can be, and the whole world could see what he was all about.

"I'm all-in," said Weissman.

Fradettedufour wiped some saliva from the corner of his mouth, checked his cards and then mucked. Weissman turned over the {6-Diamonds} and dragged in his pot.

Michael Gagliano Eliminates Larry Duplantis

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user169505]

Michael Gagliano made a standard raise on the button and Larry Duplantis decided to make a standard call in the small blind. Timmy the Dealer gave the pair a flop of {Q-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} and Duplantis check-raised to 93,000 after Gagliano had c-bet for 31,000. Gagliano made the call and the next card the pair saw was the {J-Spades} where Duplantis check-called a 82,000 Gagliano bet. Fifth street brought the {6-Diamonds} and Gagliano moved 500,000 into the middle once checked too. Duplantis looked down at his stack and realised that this next decision was his most important yet.

"I call," muttered Duplantis.

Gagliano flipped over {9-Spades} {6-Clubs} for nines full and the Duplantis hand hit the muck unseen. Commiserations to Duplantis who has had a great tournament.
