Kyle Loman opened to 2,500, and Eugene Katchalov flatted next door to see a flop.
It came , and Loman continued out with another 2,700. Katchalov called, and he faced another bet of 5,700 on the turn. He called again, and the river went check-check.
Loman didn't want to show his cards, and Katchlov knew that meant his was good. It was, and it's good enough to push him up to about 70,000, now drawing close to the 78,000-chip stack of Loman next door.
Michele Limongi called a raise on the button from an opponent, his opponent drew one, and Limongi drew two. Limongi called a bet, and both players discarded one card on the second draw. Limongi called another bet.
Limongi's opponent patted, Limongi drew one, and mucked a face-up when his opponent bet. His opponent showed (the nuts) and raked in the pot.
Johnson was leading the betting on fifth and sixth streets, and Racener was doing the calling. On seventh, both players checked.
"Pair of fives," Johnson announced, showing . Racener couldn't beat it, and Cantu still had to sweat his final card. He slapped his down cards over, showing .
"How did I f***ing miss that?!" Cantu yelled at the felt. He'll get half the pot for the low, but he's a bit peeved to not scoop it.
Cantu was left with about 5,000, and we saw him get eliminated just a moment later as we wrote this post.
We picked up the action on the flop as Eric Froehlich was leading out for 3,700. He was up against Bruno Benveniste, and he considered for a moment before announcing an all in. Froehlich made the call for his last 23,600 chips, and he was the one at risk as the cards were turned up.
Showdown
Benveniste:
Froehlich:
Froehlich was open-ended, and the turn was a blank. The river , though, was a fine card for E-Fro. A pair of jacks beats a pair of tens in this game, and Froehlich has doubled back over 50,000.
When we reached Table 373, the board read . Jerrod Ankenman led out for 4,000 into a pot of 8,000, and Adam Kornuth raised to 10,000. Ankenman called.
The river was the , Ankenman checked, and Kornuth moved all in for effectively 35,000. Ankenman mucked, prompting Kornuth to start dancing as he stacked his new chips.
Brown led the betting on fourth, and Player 3 called. Pescatori raised, and both opponent's put in the extra bet. Player 3 made a comment about not wanting to be strung along in Razz, but he came along the rest of the way, anyhow. On fifth street, Pescatori bet to put himself all in for 3,400, and both opponents called. On seventh, Brown squeezed his card and bet, and Player 3 finally ducked out.
Brown announced his seven, showing () / . It was no good as Pescatori tabled () / for the eighty-five. That's good for a big pot to Pescatori, and he moves all the way back to 61,000 thanks to that. Brown is left with just 7,000 lonely chips now.
