Gilbert Three-Bet Jams the Flop

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

On a flop of {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and a healthy-sized pot already brewed, Diaz Gilbert's opponent checked to him before he put in a stack of blue and red for a total of 125,000. The opponent then said raise and pushed across a similar-looking stack. Gilbert wasted no time shoving all-in and his opponent snap-folded.

The floor was called over as the opponent only put in 140,000 and forced the player to put in additional chips to total 250,000. Gilbert showed the {a-}{q-} for top pair before scooping the pot.

Wilson Running Away with the Tournament

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

After getting all the chips in preflop, Ruslan Rogozhyn was at risk for around 500,000 and Andrew Wilson was the player putting him at risk.

Ruslan Rogozhyn: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Andrew Wilson: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Rogozhuyn was looking for a massive double-up as the favorite but the {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop gave Wilson a pair of aces to take the lead. The {j-Diamonds} on the turn improved Rogozhyn to two pair and the {8-Diamonds} river changed nothing.

Curcio Wins Flip to Eliminate Lu

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Luigi Curcio
Luigi Curcio

Luigi Curcio raised to 105,000 under the gun and David Lu ripped for 390,000 next to act. The action folded around to Ryan Snyder who tanked for a while, deciding if he want to put his last chips in the middle. Eventually, Snyder folded and both players tabled their hands.

David Lu: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Luigi Curcio: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

It was a race but the {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop meant Lu was going to need runner-runner. The {5-Clubs} on the turn sealed Lu's fate and the {3-Spades} river was just a formality.
