Nick Schulman open-raised under the gun, and Bryn Kenney three-bet from the cutoff seat. In the small blind, Humberto Brenes squeezed all in for an additional 388,000 on top. Schulman folded and Kenney called to put Brenes at risk, and the two men were flipping for the tournament life of the Team PokerStars Pro.
Showdown
Kenney:
Brenes:
Brenes missed everything on the board that ran out . His exit was relatively quiet by Humberto's standards, and he's been whisked away to the payout desk to collect his check for $200,000.
Daniel Negreanu is now the only host-sponsored player left standing.
First to act preflop, Sandor Demjan opened to 62,000, and Eugene Katchalov three-bet to 185,000 from the small blind. Demjan called, and off they went to a heads-up flop. It would be the last of Demjan's day.
The dealer ran out , and Katchalov continued out with 155,000. Demjan promptly moved all in for what looked like 551,000, and Katchalov quickly called with his covering stack. Demjan was at risk, and the news was not good as the cards were turned up:
Katchalov:
Demjan:
Demjan was two cards from the exit, and the turn and river sealed his sixth-place elimination. Demjan is one of the richest men in Hungary, and it's a good thing since he's going home with the last $0 prize and the proverbial wooden spoon. The final five players are now guaranteed at least $200,000, and the action is still coming fast and furious.
From the button, Nick Schulman raised to 52,000, and Sandor Demjan reraised him again. The Hungarian made it 166,000 to play, and Schulman did not want to. He mucked, and Demjan flashed as he pulled in the pot.
First into the pot, Eugene Katchalov raised to 55,000, and Nick Schulman reraised to 142,000 next door. Action came to Sandor Demjan next, and he four-bet shoved all in for 413,000. That folded Katchalov rather quickly, but Schulman spent about two minutes in the tank as he considered the call with a chance for the knockout.
Schulman passed eventually, though, and Demjan adds more than 200,000 chips to his short stack with that play.
Nick Schulman raised to 52,000 from the cutoff, and Daniel Negreanu defended his big blind. They took a flop of , and Negreanu checked. Schulman's bet of 65,000 was enough to take it down right there, and Negreanu accidentally exposed his as he mucked.
First in from the cutoff seat, Humberto Brenes opened to 60,000. Small blind Nick Schulman plopped out a big reraise that amounted to 712,000 if you're scoring at home. It was enough to cover big blind Sandor Demjan (who quickly folded) and Brenes (who doesn't really do anything quickly).
Brenes spent a minute or two cheesing it up for the cameras in typical Humberto style. He finished his monologue with, "If I call, I'd be the best bubble boy ever... I pass, one time."
We're two hands into this final table, and we're already minus one player.
Daniel Negreanu was the preflop raiser, and small blind Sandor Demjan called the 55,000-chip raise. In the big blind, Andrew "LuckyChewy" Lichtenberger three-bet shoved his 367,000 chips into the middle.
"Count," Negreanu said, and he flat-called once he learned the amount. Demjan ducked out of the way, and Lichtenberger was at risk as the cards were turned up:
Negreanu:
Lichtenberger:
Lichtenberger found a small bit of help on the flop, but he was still a big underdog to stay alive. The turn and river were no help, and he is thusly out in seventh place. That's good for $0, and we're now on the biggest money bubble we've ever seen. The next man out gets the same nothing as Lichtenberger, while lasting one spot longer will boost someone's bank account by a cool $200,000.
On the first hand of the day, Eugene Katchalov had the button, and he raised to 55,000 to open the pot. Nick Schulman called in the small blind, and they went heads up to the flop.
The dealer fanned , and the action check-checked to the turn. Schulman took the lead now, sliding out a bet of 75,000. That wasn't going to get it done; Katchalov raised to 225,000, and Schulman was forced to fold.
