Vitch and Alexander on a Million

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Mike Wattel walked over to the table of Chris Vitch and the latter mentioned that he had "cold-decked" John Racener. According to Vitch, he bet small on a {7-}{7-}{2-} flop in Pot-Limit Omaha and they got it in after an {8-} turn. Vitch had sevens full of eights while Racener held an ace-seven combo that didn't get there anymore.

At nearly the same time, the stack of Shaun Deeb was pushed over to George Alexander as the next high-profile casualty prior to the dinner break has reduced the field further. Vitch and Alexander have joined the biggest stacks with seven figures in chips to their name.

Rast Picks Off Cates

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Brian Rast
Brian Rast

Pot-Limit Omaha

Brian Rast opened to 9,000 from the cutoff and was called by Dan Cates on the button.

Rast bet 8,000 on the {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop and Cates called.

The turn brought the {2-Diamonds} and Rast check-called a 30,000 bet from Cates.

Rast checked again on the {6-Hearts} river and Cates bet 80,000 — sending Rast deep into the tank.

Rast counted out calling chips thought it over for a couple minutes before eventually committing them into the middle.

Cates motioned as if Rast's hand was good and Rast tabled {10-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for two pair. Cates mucked and Rast scooped the pot.

Friedman Scoops Big Razz Pot

Level 10 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Razz

Adam Friedman's raise was called by Aaron Katz and Phil Hellmuth, who then called Friedman all the way to showdown.

Aaron Katz: {x-}{x-} / {4-}{k-}{7-}{9-}
Phil Hellmuth: {x-}{x-} / {5-}{10-}{7-}{8-}
Adam Friedman: {x-}{x-} / {3-}{k-}{a-}{2-}

Friedman turned over {9-}{5-}{2-} for a 9-5-3-2-A, and Hellmuth noted "you didn't miss a bet" as he and Katz mucked.
