Action began on Ashwin Sarin who opened with a raise to 44,000 from the hijack seat. Next to go, Asi Moshe raised to 100,000 from the cutoff. Action folded around back to Sarin who moved all in for a total of 427,000. Moshe tanked a bit before finally making the call.
"You have the best hand," Moshe said before turning up the cards.
Moshe:
Sarin:
It was looking good for Sarin to double but one of the worst possible flops fell for him when it came giving Moshe straight and flush draws. The on the turn ended all matters as it gave Moshe the unbeatable flush, but the was still dropped on the river anyways.
With that, Sarin was eliminated in 12th place while Moshe surpassed the 1,000,000 chip mark.
Jason Reynolds raised it up in early position to 43,000, and action folded around to Daniel Cascado in the small blind. He put out a reraised to 97,000, and when it got back to Reynolds, he slid out a few green T25,000 chips, a four bet to 218,000. Back to Cascado, who only thought for about 10 or 15 seconds before he announced all in, having Reynolds covered. Reynolds let got a big sigh, grabbed a green chip, and flung it into the air and into the pot, signifying a call.
Reynolds:
Cascado:
As is often the case, it was a simple coin flip to decide a huge pot at the end of a tournament, and Reynolds couldn't bear to watch, as he walked away from the table. The flop kept him safe, coming . The turn was the , giving Reynolds a flush draw, meaning that Cascado could only win with a non-club ace or king.
River:
Several players at the table let out a groaned as Reynolds returned to the table to see the rough river. A dissapointed look came across his face as he put his hands on his head. Cascado took down the pot, upping his stack to 1.66 million, while Reynolds is left to wonder what could have been.
Action had folded around to Yongjun Lu who moved all in for a total of 221,000. After a fold, Ryan Julius moved all in with his covering stack as well. Action folded to Hiren Patel on the button and he shoved all in with a covering stack on both players. Both blinds folded and the three went to a showdown.
Patel:
Lu:
Julius:
Lu was well in the lead and looked like he would be earning a triple up. "No ace!" he begged to the dealer as the flop came out, but his wishes were not granted when it fell down . The flop put Patel way out in the lead and left Lu looking for the last remaining king in the deck. The turn was the not improving any hands, but giving Patel a flush draw. It was the that hit the river and though it looked like Julius would scoop the pot by making two pair, Patel was holding the and that gave him the winning nut flush allowing him to scoop the entire huge pot, eliminating two players in the process.
Action folded around to Mika Paasonen on the button, and he raised it up to 40,000. Yongshuo Zheng was in the big blind, and he repopped it to 101,000. It got back to Paasonen, and he only thought for a few moments before sliding all of his chips into the middle. It was an all in for 735,000 total, and Zheng spent about 90 seconds in the tank before releasing his hand.
Asi Moshe raised it up from early position to 50,000 on the first hand of the day. Action folded to Yngve Steen, and he reraised to 129,000. It got back around to Moshe, and after a minute or so of thinking, he folded his hand.
On the next hand, Moshe raised under the gun to 41,000, and it folded to Maksim Tyurin, who put out all of his green T25,000 chips, a bet of 350,000 total. It got back to Moshe, and he went deep into the tank. He ask Tyurin how much he had behind, about 76,000, then stayed in the tank. About two minutes in, Tyurin began leaning back in his chair, looking calm, cool, and collected. Moshe spent at least three minutes in the tank, before saying "this is so sick." He rechecked his hand one more time, then kicked it in, giving the pot to Tyurin.
Mika Paasonen began the action with a raise to 42,000. Action folded to Yongshuo Zheng in the eight seat and he reraised to 92,000. Action folded all the way back to Paasonen who tried to made a call, but threw in too many chips to the pot.
The tournament floor was called over and it was determined that since Paasonen threw in more than half of Zheng's raise, it would be counted as a reraise and he would have to put in the full raise amount. His call ended up being a raise to 142,000 instead. This put action back on Zheng and since he still had an option to raise, call, or fold, he decided to make it an even 200,000.
Paasonen didn't take long at all to muck his hand. Because of that accidental reraise, Paasonen is now much shorter than he could've been.
