Yockey Trying to Take Control

Multi-way pots are uncommon in 6-handed tournaments, but we just had one at this final table. Bryce Yockey opened with a raise to 60,000 that was called by Carman Cavella in position and by Peter Gould from the big blind. On a flop of {4-Clubs} {3-Spades} {K-Hearts}, Gould checked to Yockey. He fired out for 125,000, a bet that drew a smirk from Carman Cavella. Cavella and Gould both folded, allowing Yockey to drag the pot.

A Game of Chicken

Sometimes in poker, he who moves last moves best. Making the pressure bet in a hand can get an opponent to go away. We watched with interest as Bryce Yockey opened from the button for 57,000 and Carman Cavella re-raised the small blind to 155,000. Once Ken Aldridge folded the big blind, Yockey raised again to 350,000.

Not to be outdone, Cavella responded by moving all in for 1,371,000 more. That was the pressure bet in the hand that eventually caused Yockey to fold. Perhaps to put in a dig at Yockey, Cavella showed the {5-Hearts}.

River Furey

Ken Aldridge raised to 64,000 from the cut off and Charles Furey made the call from the button before a {7-Hearts} {2-Spades} {J-Clubs} flop. Both players checked as they did the {3-Clubs} turn. Action crazy on the {K-Spades} river though as Aldridge bet 65,000 only for Furey to move all in for 411,000. A long think by Aldridge before he calls.

Furey shows {K-?} {Q-?}, good enough to beat Aldridge's {K-?} {10-?}.

Furey Hanging On

Charles "Chuck" Furey started the day as the chip leader; now he's just trying to avoid being the next player eliminated. Sitting in the big blind, Furey called a raise to 64,000 made by Carman Cavella. Both players checked the {6-Clubs} {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} flop. When the {6-Hearts} hit the turn, Furey quickly moved all in and Cavella quickly moved all out.

Furey is still the short stack, though not quite as short now.

Aldridge Still Firing

"Teach" Aldridge was at it again. He raised from the small blind to 62,000 and was called by big blind Peter Gould. Both players checked the {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {A-Clubs} flop. Aldridge led out for 60,000 when fourth street fell the {9-Spades}. This was a bet that gave Gould some pause. His deliberations eventually persuaded him to fold.

Manny Minaya Eliminated in 6th Place ($59,049)

6th  Place
6th Place
Pretty simple one this. Manny Minaya open shoved all in for 295,000 before Peter Gould cold called from the button. Both blinds folded so we have a pre flop showdown with Minaya holding {8-Hearts} {8-Spades} to Gould's {9-Spades} {9-Hearts}.

Minaya looking for eights as no flush draws for him. All the way with {Q-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {J-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. One Dominican down, one Brit up to 1,200,00.

Small Ball

Manny Minaya just did something we haven't seen much of at all in this tournament: he limped into a pot preflop. All other players folded to Carman Cavella in the big blind, who checked. Both players checked a {4-Clubs} {4-Spades} {5-Clubs} flop. Cavella took a stab on the turn {K-Diamonds} with a bet of 26,000 but Minaya stayed with him. On the river {k-Hearts}, Cavella surrendered. He checked, then folded to a bet of 65,000 from Minaya.
