Mallol Heredia No More

Christian Zetzsche

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Antonio Mallol Heredia raised for all but one chip from under the gun and Lachezar Petkov called all-in for 340,000 in the next seat, all other players folded.

Antonio Mallol Heredia: Q♥Q♦
Lachezar Petkov: A♥A♣

The 8♣5♥5♦3♠2♠ board secured the double for Petkov while the Spaniard was forced all-in from the big blind next. Robert Coakley raised and everyone else folded.

Antonio Mallol Heredia: Q♣J♠
Robert Coakley: K♠J♣

"Women always kill me," the Spaniard joked but took the lead moments later on the Q♠10♣7♣ flop. However, the A♥ turn gave Coakley broadway and the 2♦ river sent Mallol Heredia to the payout desk.

Mizukami Doubles, Guagenti Gone

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Frank Visser

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Manuel Pochat raised to 60,000 from the cutoff and Kojiro Mizukami called from the small blind. Big blind David Sebesfi also came along and the trio saw a flop of K♦K♠J♠.

The action checked to Pochat and he put out a tiny bet of 35,000. Mizukami then raised to 125,000 and Sebesfi got out of the way. Pochat put in the extra chips and a 4♥ turn was dealt.

Mizukami slowed down with a check and Pochat again bet tiny, this time for 75,000. Mizukami then came up with a double check-raise, this time for his entire stack of 305,000.

Pochat tanked for a couple of minutes but eventually called with a sigh.

Kojiro Mizukami: K♣Q♠
Manuel Pochat: 9♣8♣

Mizukami had already locked up the pot with this trips kings and he breathed a sigh of relief. The meaningless 4♦ river upgraded him to a full house, and he raked in the double-up to be back over one million chips.

During the hand, Nick Guagenti got his final 190,000 chips in from the button and Yu Tang called from the big blind. Guagenti's Ax3x could not win against Tang's Qx9x and he left the tournament area distraught.

Player	Chips	Progress
Yu Tang	4,850,000

David Salituro

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Rami Boukai was all in from the small blind for around 560,000 and Alec Torelli then reshoved in middle position. Matthew Davis in the hijack took off the dinosaur he uses as a card protector and stood up from his seat before announcing he was all in for around 1,500,000.

Rami Boukai: A♥K♣
Matthew Davis: A♠K♦
Alec Torelli: 10♥10♠

Torelli jumped from his seat upon seeing he was up against two players with the same hand and began filming the action as the flop came 2♥4♣J♣.

"Somebody's got to have a club," Torelli said heading to the 4♦ turn. "Pair the board," he pleaded, and Torelli saw the Q♠ fell on the river as his tens held up to send both opponents to the rail.

"Go for the glory, right," Davis, who was playing in his first Main Event, said.

"You should be proud," tablemate Daniel Vampan told him.

"I am. There is no part of me right now that is upset," Davis replied before joining Boukai at the payout desk.

"That was the perfect setup. When he started tanking I thought he had jacks," Torelli added.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Over on the right hand feature table, Richard Seymour three-bet jammed for around 450,000 out of the blinds and initial raiser Christopher Vitch quickly called with the covering stack.

Richard Seymour: A♥J♥
Christopher Vitch: 6♠6♦

The A♦6♣2♣ flop left Seymour on the ropes but he gained some unlikely outs with the 2♦ turn. However, the miracle escape never happened for the NFL Hall of Fame member and he bowed out inside the top 300 spots.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Christian Zetzsche

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

One of the biggest pots has just unfolded on the side feature table when Christopher Vitch was eliminated by Glenn Fishbein, who has become the new chip leader as a result.

On a Q♦6♥2♣5♥ turn, Fishbein's bet was raised to 525,000 by Vitch who then called the shove by Fishbein.

Christopher Vitch: K♠Q♣
Glenn Fishbein: Q♠5♣

The 8♦ river was a blank and the two pair of Fishbein were good enough for the knockout. Vitch was among average heading into the last break but crashed out a few minutes after the action resumed.

Denis Pisarev: AxQx
Luis Dorneles: KxJx

Pisarev was ahead with his ace high holding but was left drawing thin following the 4♦2♣K♥ flop. No help came on either the 2♥ turn or 7♥ river to send Pisarev to the rail while adding some more chips to Dorneles' stack.
