O'Neil Loses One and Then Gets a Knockout

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jack O'Neill
Jack O'Neill

Carlos Henrique Da Silva opened to 400,000 from early position, and Jack O'Neill defended his big blind. O'Neill check-called for 475,000 on the QJ9 flop before folding to a bet of 800,000 on the 4 turn.

The following hand, James Jeffrey opened to 400,000 from the cutoff. O'Neill got into the mix once more and three-bet to 850,000 from the small blind. Jeffrey jammed for around 1,900,000, and O'Neill called.

James Jeffrey: KK
Jack O'Neill: A10

The J43 flop was safe for Jeffrey but the A turn left him drawing to two outs to survive. The 10 provided no saving grace and he bowed out in 60th place.

Dea Counterfeited on the River

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Andrew Dea
Andrew Dea

Andrew Dea moved all in for 1,775,000 from under the gun, Harsheel Kothari reshoved in middle position, and the rest of the table got out of the way.

Andrew Dea: 66
Harsheel Kothari: AK

The two opponents put their arms around each other's shoulders awaiting the 789 flop. Dea remained in front but the 7 turn opened the possibility of his pair being counterfeit.

The 8 river left Dea playing the board and Kothari's ace sent him to the rail to a round of hugs from his now-former tablemates.

"Sorry," Kothari said to him.

"No sorry. That's the way it goes," the good-natured Dea replied.

Gerrity Five-Bets with Kings

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Daniel Vampan opened to 425,000 from late position before Nicholas Gerrity three-bet to 1,050,000 on the button. Henry Chan then cold four-bet to 2,400,000 out of the big blind, getting a quick fold from Vampan. Gerrity thought for some time before counting out a five-bet to 4,000,000 which was enough to force Chan out of the hand and take down a large pot before the flop. Chan was left relieved, however, after Gerrity showed the table KxKx.

Villa Triples Up, Weinman Eliminates Davis on the Side

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Alexander Villa
Alexander Villa

Daniel Weinman opened to 425,000 from under the gun and Alexander Villa ripped all in for 2,500,000 in middle position. Brian Davis four-bet to 5,000,000 on the button and Weinman announced all in for 11,750,000. Davis thought for a minute and then called off his stack of 10,550,000.

Alexander Villa: AA
Brian Davis: JJ
Daniel Weinman: KK

The flop came 952 and things stood the same as they did preflop. The 7 on the turn was a brick and the Q on the river got some hearts rising before everyone realized that it also had no impact. Villa earned a triple up and Weinman took down the massive side pot, eliminating Davis from the tournament.

Chan Takes Out Makhija

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Amit Makhija moved all in for his last 1,800,000 on the button and was called by Henry Chan in the small blind.

Amit Makhija: J10
Henry Chan: AA

Chan had Makhija absolutely crushed and all but locked up the pot on the 84K flop. The J turn did give Makhija some outs but none came in on the 4 river to send him out late on Day 6.

Yokosawa Breaches 14 Million; Richez Doubles

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Masato Yokosawa
Masato Yokosawa

Ruslan Prydryk raised to 400,000 from middle position and Masato Yokosawa defended his big blind to the delight of his rail. Yokosawa's friends have supported him all day and have been fully invested in every pot that he has played.

Yokosawa check-called for 400,000 on the A38 flop, which brought in the through to the Q turn. Both players checked and the 10 completed the board.

A few hands earlier, Clement Richez doubled through Prydryk after his dominated Ax8x got there against the latter's AxJx. Richez said he paired his eight on the flop and held out to double.

Yokosawa led out for 900,000 folded out his opponent.

His rail told PokerNews that if Yokosawa goes the distance, poker in Japan would explode and become a hotbed for games.

Maceiras Gets There on the River to Take a Big One

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

A massive pile of chips amounting to more than 10,000,000 was already in the pot and cameras began to surround the table as Anirban Das and Juan Maceiras went to the turn on a board of 3843.

Both players checked to the 10 river, where Das fired out 2,600,000. Maceiras snap-called.

"Ace-high," Das said dejectedly, showing A7. Maceiras had KQ for a rivered flush to take the pot and climb near 30,000,000.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Alec Torelli raised to 400,000 from under the gun and Allen Chang called in the small blind before Ping Liu shoved in the big blind for 875,000. Torelli reshoved and Chang got out of the way.

Ping Liu: Q10
Alec Torelli: QJ

"Ten-ball," one of Liu's supporters yelled from the rail, but it wasn't to be as the board came 8A6A4 keeping Torelli's jack-kicker in the lead and sending Liu to the payout desk.

Chang Runs Out of Flips

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Ryan Tamanini raised to 400,000 in middle position and Allen Chang three-bet to 1,100,000 on his left. Alec Torelli announced all in from the small blind which got Tamanini to fold and Chang called off his stack of 2,550,000.

Allen Chang: 66
Alec Torelli: AK

The flop came A75 and Torelli fist-pumped the air after flopping a pair of aces. The turn was the 8 to make things sweaty but the 5 paired the board on the river. Chang entered the day with just 800,000 chips and managed to spin it up, but was eventually eliminated in the last level.
