Lehr Gets a Shove Through; West Back From the Brink
Keith Lehr limped and called a raise to 135,000 by Biao Ding, then jammed the 9?8?7? flop for 215,000 to force out Ding.
Michael Moncek limped and Jeffrey Davoud raised the pot to 135,000. Jonathan West was forced all-in for 30,000 from the big blind and Moncek called. On the 10?10?9? flop, Moncek check-called for 150,000 before they checked down the 3? turn and K? river.
Davoud announced aces and showed the A?A? first. Moncek revealed his A?Q?J?9? for a straight and won the side pot, as West had flopped a full house with the J?10?9?2?.
Soon after, West got a shove through and almost doubled after his triple-up.
Dan Shak opened to 100,000 from under the gun for Noah Boeken to defend the big blind, then check-folded the A?6?5? flop when Shak bet 150,000. The latter revealed the A?A?8?3? and Nick Schulman added a rather dry "story checks out".
Last but not least, Oliver Weis checked the A?6?2?5?K? river and Ren Lin bet 275,000. Weis was covered by that and reluctantly folded as the tournament continued with 23 contenders still in the mix.
