Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Tanupat Punjarojanakul raised 200,000 in early position and the hijack called before Dae Woong Song three-bet 575,000 in the small blind. Only Punjarojanakul made the call.

Both players checked the Q♥6♥3♠ flop and the 8♥ rolled off on the turn. Song led for 1,400,000 and Punjarojanakul tanked for about 30 seconds before releasing his hand.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

A player jammed under the gun for 795,000 and Shawn Gill called in the hijack before Ellianne Munoz shoved her 2,330,000 into the middle.

"I just told him I was going to double up!" She yelled enthusiastically while Gill was in the tank.

After about two minutes, Gill surrendered his cards, and both hands were turned face up.

Adam Velez was at the same table and building a healthy stack.

Under the gun: 6♠6♣
Ellianne Munoz: 9♦9♥

Munoz was in great shape with an overpair to her opponent, and the board ran out 8♦7♥3♣K♦4♦, for her nines to hold.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Jason Ephraim raised 320,000 under the gun and Mayank Madan three-bet all-in for 1,580,000. Erik Ortiz was in the small blind and called off his 940,000, and Ephraim tank-called off his 1,400,000.

Jason Ephraim: J♣J♠
Erik Ortiz: K♦K♥
Mayank Madan: A♦9♦

Ortiz was in great shape to triple up but the A♥Q♥10♦ flop gave Madan a pair of aces to take the lead. The A♠ hit the turn, improving him to trip aces and the 7♣ completed the board on the river, sending both Ephraim and Ortiz to the payout desk.

A player raised to 320,000 and Andrew Miller three-bet jammed for 1,390,000. The action folded back around to the preflop raiser and he made the call.

Baraan With a Straight-Flush Draw; Iermolcheva Folds Correctly

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

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

The First of Two Hands at Table #503:

Heads up to the flop of 9♣8♣5♠, Gibran Baraan checked and was met with a bet of 500,000, that he promptly called.

The turn brought the K♣ and both players checked, resulting in the 2♣, making a board with four clubs. Again, the players checked and Baraan showed the 10♣7♣ for a turned flush and his opponent conceded his hand.

The Very Next Hand:

Olga Iermolcheva was in the big blind facing a raise to 500,000 from the button and after some deliberation she folded her first card, showing the A♥ to her opponent, who in turn showed her the A♦, which made Iermolcheva show the 2♥ and her opponent couldn't help but laugh and show the A♣ as well.

Iermolcheva has been seated in her same seat all day and has steadily been grinding throughout the day.

Gibran Baraan	4,600,000 3,689,000	3,689,000
Olga Iermolcheva	1,950,000 -1,150,000	-1,150,000
