Vilchez Doubles Through Nielsen

Level 29 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Jesse Vilchez checked from early position on a {j-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop and Laurids Nielsen bet 350,000 on the button. Vilchez stuck in a raise to 1,350,000, and Nielsen moved all in. Vilchez quickly called with {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a combo draw. Nielsen had the best hand for the moment with {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}.

The {7-Hearts} turn ended the sweat in a hurry as Vilchez made the nut flush, leaving Nielsen clutching his head in disbelief. The meaningless river was an {a-Clubs}.

Ryan Yu opened to 340,000 and Corey Burbick jammed for 2,900,000 from late position. Once the action folded back to Yu, he asked for a count and made the call.

Corey Burbick: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Ryan Yu: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flop changed nothing yet, however, Burbick picked up a flush draw on the {6-Diamonds} turn. The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Burbick improved to a flush to avoid elimination.

The board read {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Warwick Mirzikinian had bet 1,000,000 in the hijack after Jiwoon Kim had checked his big blind. Kim responded with a raise to 2,800,000 which Mirzikinian called.

Austin Lewis opened to 325,000 from the hijack and Jake Schindler three-bet to 1,600,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Lewis went into the tank for over a minute before shoving all in. Schindler instantly called and the cards were on their backs.

Austin Lewis: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Jake Schindler: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The two players were flipping for stacks and the board ran out {q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Once the stacks were counted, it was Schindler who was at risk for 3,080,000 with Lewis barely having him covered.

Tobias Duthweiler shoved from the button and [Removed:140] asked for a count in the small blind. The dealer confirmed Duthweiler had 2,905,000 behind and Rau decided to also shove. Kartik Ved looked at his cards in the small blind and quickly put them away so the card could go on their backs.

Tobias Duthweiler: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
[Removed:140]: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for Rau to improve to a flush even though he was already ahead to eliminate Duthweiler in 66th place in the 2019 Main Event.
