Dea Gets Three-Bet Respect; Cohuet Confirmed as Last Woman Standing

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

Sachin Joshi opened to 220,000 from under the gun before Andrew Dea made it 650,000. Mark Teltscher asked Dea how much he had behind and after it was confirmed, the Brit opted to fold.

Action folded back to Joshi, who decided to give his opponent some respect and open-folded his A10.

"Pretty hand," said Joshi as he tossed his cards in the muck.

As the hand was playing out, Dea asked Estelle Cohuet if she was the last woman standing. Joshi pointed out Nikita Luther was also still in. However, as he finished his sentence, the elimination of Luther was confirmed over the loudspeaker.

The table congratulated Cohuet on being the final remaining woman in the Main Event. However, she noted that she didn't just want to be the last woman standing, but the last player standing.

Cohuet is a force to be reckoned with as she was one of the winners in Winamax's Top Shark event.

Hulme Spikes the Turn to Take Out Luther

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

Nikita Luther was all in for her last 2,285,000 in the small blind and up against Andrew Hulme in middle position.

Nikita Luther: AK
Andrew Hulme: AQ

Luther had Hulme dominated and was a favorite to double up as the flop came 552. The turn, though, brought the Q and Hulme came from behind to leave Luther a card away from elimination.

The 9 fell on the river and Luther was sent to the rail, leaving Estelle Cohuet as the last woman remaining.

Patrick Tardif
Patrick Tardif

Ryan Casaly opened to 225,000 in early position and Patrick Tardif shipped all in for 2,845,000 in the small blind. Casaly asked for a rough count and then called to put Tardif at risk.

Patrick Tardif: AK
Ryan Casaly: AQ

The dealer fanned the flop of Q96 and Casaly took the lead with a pair of queens. The 7 and 9 runout was no help to Tardif who was sent to the payout desk.

Ivan Ruban opened to 220,000 from middle position and Ryan Tosoc called from the small blind.

Tosoc checked the 1088 flop, prompting Ruban to bet 125,000. Tosoc made it 650,000 before Ruban clicked it to 1,400,000. Tosoc wasted little time in four-betting to 2,650,000.

Ruban went into the tank for several minutes before settling on a fold.

Daniel Weinman

Tim Van Loo raised to 225,000 with QQ and Masato Yokosawa called holding 109. Chris Lee, with JJ, then moved all in from the button for 1,440,000 and Daniel Weinman called with AK in the big blind. Van Loo also called with his queens, while Yokosawa folded.

The flop came 9AA and Weinman led out for 800,000. Van Loo called to create a side pot as the 6 fell on the turn, where Weinman bet another 1,250,000.

Van Loo folded this time, and Weinman's trip aces took out Lee's jacks once the 8 completed the board on the river.

Lewis Bounces Troha to the Rail

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

Sean Troha was one of the shortest stacks in the room and shoved all in for his last 820,000 from middle position. Toby Lewis reshoved all in from the cutoff and the rest of the table folded.

Sean Troha: A5
Toby Lewis: A10

Lewis was in a dominating position and the flop of A84 left it that way. The 9 on the turn gave Troha a flush draw but the 8 on the river sent him to the payout desk.

"Has anyone ever told you that you look like Chance Kornuth?" one player asked Christopher Ruch after the hand.

"I don't even know who that is," Ruch responded, which got a table full of laughs.

Christian Harder was moved over to table 622 after the one seat was ousted by Liran Betito. Soon after that, he flipped against Betito in a preflop contest.

Christian Harder: AK
Liran Betito: 44

The board ran out 1064710 and Betito rivered a full house for the win.

Viliyan Petleshkov then clashed in a large flip with Ryan Tosoc, the other big stack at the table.

Viliyan Petleshkov: JJ
Ryan Tosoc: AK

This time, ace-king came out on top. With a board running out K33A9 Tosoc became one of the biggest stacks in the field.

Lewis Doesn't Make Same Mistake Twice

Toby Lewis contemplates a river call vs Sachin Joshi.

Toby Lewis, who made a crazy fold with an ace-high flush yesterday against what ended up being a bluff, was put in another tough spot in a heads-up pot against Sachin Joshi on a board of J58Q4.

With several million in chips already in the middle, Joshi bet all in. This sent Lewis into the tank as he considered calling off with around 3,000,000 left in his stack. After about five minutes seeming to be in deep thought, Lewis called.

Joshi could only show ace-high with A9 as Lewis tabled JJ to win with a set of jacks.

Betito Coolers Faro

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

"Let's goooo!" Liran Betito screamed from the top of his lungs after being heads up against Timothy Faro on a flop of 843 when the A fell on the turn.

Faro was all in with the Q7 for a flush, but Betito, with the K8, had the nuts. That made the 9 river a formality as Faro was sent to the payout desk.
