Giordano Bust Hui on the River

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Loni Hui
Loni Hui

Loni Hui moved all in for 360,000 from the small blind and was called by Marcelo Giordano in the big blind.

Loni Hui: AJAll in
Marcelo Giordano: QQ

The 26A flop was looking hopeful for Hui to get another double as she picked up top pair.

She was holding strong on the 5 turn.

This all changed on the Q river when Giordano stole the pot with a set of queens, eliminating Hui from the tournament, and taking the table chip lead.

Tigner Runs Into Aces

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ryan Tigner got his short stack in from the button with the AQ only to find himself up against the AA of Casey Stewart in the big blind.

The 8324 turn provided some chop outs as a five would have made both players a wheel. However, the J river was a blank and that sent Tigner out next.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Boris Angelov and Troy McLean went to a flop of 56J where McLean got his last 350,000 in the middle from the big blind and Angelov put him at risk on the button.

Troy McLean: 103 All in
Boris Angelov: AA

McLean had a flush draw against Angelov's aces as the A turn improved Angelov to a set. The J turn gave Angelov a full house and McLean was sent to the rail.

"He doesn't need any more chips," a tablemate said as Angelov raked in the pot.

Robert Bickley: KQ All in
Kai Zheng: AQ

End of the Road for Eichele

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Robert Eichele had committed the entirety of his short stack to the pot from late position and was at risk against Dimitri Joubert in the small blind.

Robert Eichele: A7 All in
Dimitri Joubert: AK

The end was in sight for Eichele, already a significant dog preflop, once the first three community cards came 4102 to remove one of his three immediate outs. The 3 turn brought some faint hope in the form of a gutshot to a chop but Joubert instead made the nuts on the Q river to felt Eichele.

Wysocki Wins a Flip to Eliminate Cox

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Szymon Wysocki raised from early position to 55,000 and Donavan Cox three-bet from middle position to 210,000. When it got back to Wysocki, he shoved, and Cox eventually called off his stack of around 1,000,000 chips.

Donavan Cox: AK All in
Szymon Wysocki: JJ

During his decision to call off his stack, Cox had mentioned that he felt like they both had the same hand, but that wasn't the case. It was a flip that went Wysocki's way as the 106534 runout kept his pocket jacks in the lead, which sent Cox to the rail.

Christopher Ewing moved all in for 155,000 from the cutoff and Fernando Rodriguez re-jammed for 290,000 from the button. Phil Ivey called from the big blind.

Christopher Ewing: A2All in
Fernando Rodriguez: 33All in
Phil Ivey: KK

The flop came K8Q giving Ivey a set of kings.

The A turn and the J river wasn’t enough to save the at-risk players as they stood from the table, having just given Ivey a big chip up.

Toghyan Crashes Out in Setup Hand

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Hamid Toghyan raised for Daniel Jones to make it 130,000 to go. It folded back to Toghyan and he clicked it up to 360,000 and then called all-in when Jones pushed with the covering seven-figure stack.

Hamid Toghyan: KK All in
Daniel Jones: AA

"What is going on here? What is going on?" a stunned and flabbergasted Toghyan said as he was on the bad end of a cooler between the two premium pairs.

There was no escaping on the Q8753 runout and Toghyan went from middle of the pack to the payout desk.
