Hand #2 – Bryan Campanello min-raises from the hijack to 400,000, Sam Barnhart moves all in from the cutoff for 725,000, and Campanello calls with 10d9s. Barnhart turns over JdJs, and he’s a favorite to double up here.

Hand #8 – Darren Rabinowitz min-raises UTG+1 to 400,000, and Neville Darrell calls from middle position. Both players check to the turn on a board of Ac6s5d9s, Rabinowitz bets 400,000, and Darrell calls.

The river is the 2d, Rabinowitz bets 1,275,000, and Darrell calls. Rabinowitz shows AsKc for a pair of nines, and it appears to be good and Darrell studies his own hand without showing it.

But then Darrell seems to realize that he has the best hand, and turns over Ad6d to win the pot with two pair, aces and sixes. Several players express shock at the slow-roll, though it’s a bit restrained because it appeared to be unintentional.

Neville Darrell  –  14,800,000  (74 bb)
Darren Rabinowitz  –  5,300,000  (26 bb)


Level 36 comes to an end after that hand, and the blinds increase to 150,000-300,000 with a 50,000 ante. Play continues without a break.

Event 7: Andjelko Andrejevic Out 13th; Mike Malin Out 12th

Back at the final two tables of Event 7 ($560 NLHE), where the action continues at a steady clip.

At Table 2, Andjelko Andrejevic moves all in from the button for 1.1 million, and Wendy Freedman calls from the small blind with KdKs. Andrejevic turns over 2d2h, and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.

The board comes As5c3h6hJd, and the pocket kings hold up for Freedman to win the pot and eliminate Andrejevic in 13th place.

Wendy Freedman  –  6,400,000  (42 bb)
Andjelko Andrejevic  –  Out in 13th Place  ($11,014)


A short while later at the same table, Mike Malin tries to raise from the hijack to 250,000, but since the blinds are 75k-150k, he’s forced to min-raise to 300,000. Wendy Freedman calls from the big blind.

The flop comes QsJd8s, Freedman checks, and Malin starts talking to her, telling her that he’s enjoyed playing with her and things like that, and he checks behind.

The turn card pairs the board with the 8d, and Freedman bets 475,000. Malin moves all in for about 1.55 million, and Freedman calls with 8h7c for trip eights. Malin turns over Ad10d for a double-gutshot straight draw with a diamond flush draw, and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.

The river card is the 2s, and Freedman wins the pot with her trip eights to eliminate Malin in 12th place.

Wendy Freedman  –  7,800,000  (52 bb)
Mike Malin  –  Out in 12th Place  ($15,250)


At Table 1, chipleader Bryan Campanello min-raises to 300,000, Ray Piccin moves all in from the big blind for 3,160,000, and Campanello tanks for a while before he calls with KcQs. Piccin turns over JcJs, and it’s a race situation.

The board comes Ad3c3s4d8s, and the pocket jacks hold up for Piccin to win the pot and double up in chips.

Ray Piccin  –  6,515,000  (43 bb)
Bryan Campanello  –  16,300,000  (108 bb)


Level 34 comes to an end, and the remaining 11 players take a 15-minute break that includes a color-up.

As soon as one more player is eliminated, they will redraw for new seats at a single 10-handed table and continue playing down to a winner.
