Spasov Scores with Two Tens

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Steve Yea opened to 500,000 with 7?7? and Simeon Spasov just called with 10?10? and Daniel Palau came along as well with 9?6?.

Everyone got a piece on the flop of 6?8?3? and Yea continued for 4,250,000, which only Spasov called with the superior hand.

The turn brought in the J? and Yea decided to slow down and check, which prompted a bet of 825,000 from Spasov and a call from Yea.

The 2? arrived on the river and Yea checked once more to Spasov, who checked back. The pot was then awarded to Spasov with his pocket tens to chip him up to second place.

Chih Fan with K?K? raised from under the gun to 5,500,000 and John Henry Gordon with 4?4? three-bet 2,050,000 in the small blind.
Steve Yea, in the big blind, found Q?Q? and moved all in for 11,300,000. Fan took some time before making the call for 5,600,000 and Gordon folded.

The board ran out with 10?7?6?3?8? and Fan was very relieved that his kings held.

Gordon and Spasov Chop after Double Check-Raise

Level 32 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Simeon Spasov opened to 500,000 with K?Q? and John Henry Gordon called with Q?3?.

Both players made top pair on the Q?2?J? flop and Gordon check-raised to 1,200,000 after a bet of 450,000 from Spasov.

Spasov thought for a bit but wound up making the call to see another Q? peel off on the turn. Gordon then checked again with his inferior trips which prompted Spasov to blast the pot for 1,200,000.

Gordon then hit him with the elusive double-check-raise to 3,600,000, which Spasov called.

The river then brought in the J?, double-pairing the board and gave both players the same full house. After a bet of 3,000,000 from Gordon, Spasov moved all in, Gordon snap-called, and the players chopped up the pot.

Joseph Brumpacheco Eliminated in 7th Place ($62,687)

Level 32 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Joseph Brumpacheco
Joseph Brumpacheco

John Henry Gordon opened to 500,000 with Q?J? and then Joseph Brumpacheco three-bet with 7?7? to 2,600,000- leaving 225,000 behind. The action folded back to Gordon who just called after some considerable thought.

On the flop of 4?10?A?, Brumpacheco put the last of his chips into the middle and Gordon called to put him at risk.

Brumpacheco was still in the lead with his sevens, but the turn K? was brutal as it gave Gordon the nut straight to lock up the hand. The river was the irrelevant 6? and Gordon was awarded the pot, while Brumpacheco was eliminated in seventh place as the first casualty at the final table.

No Callers at Gordon's House

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

John Henry Gordon opened to 500,000 with A?A? and Mark Dube called with 8?8?.

The flop of A?10?10? instantly gives Gordon the top full house and he checks back after a check from Dube.

The action is then checked through the K? as well and the two players see the 5? on the river. Dube led for 250,000 and then Gordon clicked it to 850,000, which resulted in a fold from Dube to award Gordon the pot.
