Tang Doubles Through Reard

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Danny Tang
Danny Tang

Alexandre Reard opened to 130,000 and Danny Tang used two time extensions before three-betting all in for 1,030,000 from the small blind. Henrik Hecklen folded his big blind and Reard called.

Alexandre Reard: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Danny Tang: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

There was a jack on the {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop, and Tang moved ahead. The turn was the {k-Hearts} and Reard initially celebrated the {q-Spades} river as he rivered a straight, but Tang's was an ace-high straight and he doubled through his opponent in the last hand before the break.

Here are the chip counts for the final five players.

Danny Tang

Daniel Dvoress raised to 120,000 from the cutoff, and Danny Tang moved all in for 395,000 from the button, which Dvoress called.

Daniel Dvoress: {a-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Danny Tang: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Board: {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Defending champion Tang had Dvoress dominated and improved to a pair on the river to secure a full double up with ease, and keep his dream of back-to-back titles alive.

Tomas Paiva
Tomas Paiva

Tomas Paiva moved all in for 1,100,000 from under the gun and Henrik Hecklen reshoved for 4,000,000 from the hijack, which got the other four players at the table to fold.

Tomas Paiva: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Henrik Hecklen: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Board: {3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}

Paiva has run his pocket nines into a horrible spot. The board brought no saving grace for Paiva, and he was eliminated in 6th place for �117,340, for by far his biggest recorded live cash.

Jasper Meijer van Putten

Henrik Hecklen opened to 125,000 and Jasper Meijer van Putten three-bet all in for 435,000 from the big blind.

Hecklen called and the cards were turned over.

Henrik Hecklen: {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Jasper Meijer van Putten: {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

"A seven would be a fun card," said Ole Schemion.

The turn was the {q-Spades}.

"That's not a fun card," said van Putten who was now drawing dead. The river was the {4-Spades} and the overnight chip leader Van Putten was eliminated. He takes home �86,170 for his efforts in addition to a second place in a �2k side event earlier this festival.

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Michael Addamo
Michael Addamo

Henrik Hecklen opened the action with a raise to 125,000 from middle position, and when it was Michael Addamo's turn to act from the big blind, he moved all in for 700,000.

Hecklin made the call, and Addamo was in a race for his tournament life.

Henrik Hecklen: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Michael Addamo: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Board: {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}

Hecklen hit a set on the flop, and it was all over by the turn after Hecklen improved to a full house and had Addamo drawing dead.

The Australian follows up his third and fourth-place finishes in both the �25,000 Single-Day High Rollers with an eighth-place finish here in the EPT High Roller for �63,310.
