Clarke Among the Latest Casualties

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Patrick Clarke
Patrick Clarke

"You just missed a big one," Oren Haziza said as their table had received a face lift with two new players in Patrick Clarke and Gerardo Hernandez. However, the appearance of Irishman Clarke was short-lived as his pocket aces were cracked by the pocket jacks of big stack Neal Corcoran.

The next hand wasn't as big as Haziza opened to 80,000 from under the gun and Corcoran called, as did Abdullah Al-Shanti in the big blind. Al-Shanti check-folded the 552 flop to a bet of 100,000 by Haziza, while Corcoran called.

Haziza led the 5 turn for 275,000 and Corcoran folded.

Tsou Keeps His Foot on the Gas

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Adrian Lopez opened to 90,000 from the cutoff and James Tsou three-bet to 400,000 on the button. Action folded back around to Lopez, who asked, "Are you trying to go broke before dinner break?" before sticking in a call.

Lopez check-called a 400,000 bet from Tsou on the J95 flop, but check-folded after a lengthy tank facing a 1,100,000 bet from Tsou on the K turn.

"Show one time," a tablemate asked. Tsou re-checked his hole cards and sent them into the muck before collecting the pot.

Kevin Davis opened to 85,000 from middle position and got called by Jordan Scott on the button, and the big blind.

All three checked the QA8 flop to see the 4 fall on the turn. Davis bet 135,000, and only Scott called.

On the 6 river, Davis checked, Scott put in a bet, and Davis called.

Scott tabled 44 for a set, but Davis had a bigger set holding 66 and took the pot.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

On a board of JJ392, there were around 1,000,000 chips in the pot when Aliaksandr Shylko had bet 750,000 on the river into Biao Ding. The Chinese player was deep into his thought process in a hand that had dived around four minutes into the dinner break, and eventually made the call.

Shylko announced a flush and tabled K6, and Ding mucked.

Tryon Takes from Shah

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Just before the dinner break, action was followed from a 3JJ flop. Robert Tryon checked the flop from the small blind, sitting with KK, and the action was on Kavin Shah from under the gun.

Shah checked his QQ, which took the players to the 8 turn. Tryon bet 180,000 and Shah made the call.

The K gave Tryon the full house and he bet 1,360,000, effectively putting Shah all in, leaving himself 265,000 behind. Shah tanked and found a fold, leaving Tryon to scoop the pot.

Machado Leads On Dinner; Pedersen Joins the Big Stacks

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Manuel Machado had won a big pot to leave Ryan Sang short and may become the first player with an eight-figure stack.

Not far behind is Denmark's Mathias Pedersen, who just emptied the clip against Yuan Yu in the last hand before the dinner break.

Yu opened to 80,000 from under the gun and Pedersen three-bet to 210,000 from two seats over for Yu to call.

Following the Q55 flop, Yu check-called for 150,000 and did so again for 450,000 on the 2 turn. The 7 river completed the board and Yu checked the third street in a row with less than pot size behind. Pedersen moved all-in and Yu tank-folded.
