Chung Doubles Through Ricksen

Kirk Brown

Level 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Cody Chung moved all in preflop and action folded to John Ricksen in the big blind, who tanked for close to two minutes before he decided to call.

Cody Chung: A♠K♦ All in
John Ricksen: J♥10♠

Chung was well in the lead with his ace-king and the runout of 8♥2♣5♣Q♣6♥ kept it that way to score him a double while Ricksen was now the one left short.

Level 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

John Ricksen raised from the button to 3,500,000 and August Smrek moved all in from the small blind for 11,600,000. Ricksen took some time before making the call and the players flipped their cards.

August Smrek: A♣A♥ All in
John Ricksen: J♣K♥

Smrek was sitting with pocket aces and looking to hold to stay in the tournement.

The 8♣10♣6♥ flop missed for both, but the 9♣ turn brought in a sweat for Smrek, as Ricksen was looking at an open-ended straight draw.

The flush came in on the 5♣ river, and Smrek sealed the double.

Level 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Christopher Moen had made it 3,800,000 to go and then Daniel Hirose moved all in for 6,600,000 total , which Moen called when it folded back to him.

Daniel Hirose: A♥10♣ All in
Christopher Moen: A♣8♦

It looked like Hirose was in a great spot to double, at least until the turn was the 5♠7♦5♥8♥ to give Moen the lead with his pair of eights and the river 6♠ bricked to send him to the exit in seventh place.

Level 39 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Guilherme De Castro made it 6,000,000 to go and then Christopher Moen moved all, which forced folds from the rest of the table. When it got back to De Castro he quickly called to put himself at risk and the cards were tabled.

Guilherme De Castro: A♠J♣ All in
Christopher Moen: A♦K♥

De Castro would need to improve to stay alive against Moen, but the runout of 7♣5♥4♠9♠3♦ failed to do so and he was sent to the payout desk in eighth place.

Short Stacked Vance Isono was forced all in on the big blind and was called by three other players to put him at risk.

Vance Isono: Q♥5♣ All in
Cal Nailn: 9♠10♦
Christopher Moen: A♣4♠
John Ricksen: A♦5♠
