Gardner Has the Read

Sava Krink

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

With 770,000 already in the pot and the board showing A♠9♥K♠7♦, Jacob Mulhern bet 225,000 after Shinya Nakajima checked. Rachel Gardner and Nakajima both called.

On the river 5♥, Nakajima checked again. Mulhern fired another bet of 650,000, which Gardner called after some thought, while Nakajima folded. Mulhern, mistakenly thinking Gardner had raised, didn't show his cards. Gardner then revealed 8♥8♣ and claimed the pot after Mulhern's cards found the muck. "Good call," he said to Gardner.

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

The action was unclear but Nick Guagenti was all in for his last 1,050,000 from the cutoff with Robert Ramos making the call from the button to try and eliminate him.

Nick Guagenti: K♣J♦ All in
Robert Ramos: 8♦8♥

The dealer fanned the flop of 6♣10♥3♥, keeping Ramos ahead. However, the J♣ turn and K♥ river mean Guagenti would double up with two pair.

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Guilherme de Castro was heads up and on the button against Nick Guagenti in the big blind. Players were on a 5♣J♠9♦ flop with a pot of around 550,000.

Guagenti checked the flop and de Castro bet out around 325,000. Guagenti took some time before making a fold, handing the pot to de Castro.

In the next hand, Anil Damani was all in from a middle position for around 1,000,000. Guilherme de Castro was the only caller from the cutoff.

Anil Damani: A♣J♣ All in
Guilherme de Castro: Q♦Q♠

The 4♦7♠K♣ flop didn't change much for either player, but the Q♥ turn was good for de Castro. The 2♣ river sealed Damani's bustout, and de Castro added more chips to his monster stack.

Player	Chips	Progress
Anil Damani	7,750,000 7,440,000	7,440,000
Nick Guagenti	920,000 -180,000	-180,000

Gautier Lucas raised to 870,000 under the gun with just 30,000 chips behind. Jiawei Mao made the call from the big blind.

Lucas got the last of his chip into the middle on the J♠4♥Q♥ flop with Mao making the call.

Gautier Lucas: A♣10♥ All in
Jiawei Mao: A♠9♠

The 5♦ turn and 6♥ river meant Lucas would double up because of his higher kicker.

Stavila Gets Rivered, Exits Following Hand

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Dan Stavila had made it around 700,000 to go preflop, leaving 75,000 behind but Cal Nail thought he was all in and exposed his cards. Stavila, being a good sport, then exposed his cards as well.

Dan Stavila: K♦Q♠ All in
Cal Nailn: A♠Q♥

Nailn was ahead going into this hand, but the flop of 6♠K♥2♦ put Stavila in the lead with his king.

Both players then decided to check to the turn 10♠, which saw a check from Nailn and it looked like Stavila was going to put the last of his chips in, but decided against it and checked back.

Crazily enough, the river fell the J♦ to give Nailn the nut straight and Stavila quickly folded to award him the pot, which left himself with barely a big blind.

Stavila then got it all in preflop the very next hand but unfortunately could not survive and was sent to the rail by Nailn.

Joon Kim raised to 245,000 from the button leaving just one T-5,000 chip behind. The big blind made the call and the two players saw a flop of 5♠Q♠J♦. The rest of Kim's chips went into the middle and the cards were revealed.

Joon Kim: K♦Q♣
Big blind: 10♠2♦

The J♣ turn and the 6♦ river meant Kim earned a much-needed double up with top pair.

Justin Yaker: 5♦4♦ All in

Jeff Vertes: K♦J♣ All in
