Hands #38-41
Hand #38: Davidi Kitai opened with a raise to 60,000 and Tony Ruberto called.
The pair watched on as the flop came down and both players checked. Ruberto then checked the turn and Kitai tried his luck with a 45,000 bet and Ruberto called. The river card was the and now Ruberto came out firing, making it 100,000 to play.
Kitai sat motionless except for the riffling of some orange chips, before reaching for chips and making it 360,000 to play. Ruberto instantly folded.
Hand #39: Gordon Vayo raised to 65,000 and won the pot without a fight.
Hand #40: Vayo raised to 65,000 and Mark Darner three-bet to 152,000. Everyone else folded, as did Vayo, leaving Darner to scoop up the pot.
Hand #41: Darner folded under the gun, Ruberto was next to act and he made it 65,000 to play. Kitai was on the button and he squeezed to 140,000 and both blinds mucked. Ruberto folded and the players headed off for a 60-minute dinner break.
