Paul Julian

Dylan Jaijairam opened to 130,000 from middle position and Paul Julian moved all in for 730,000. It folded to Ginold Rendel in the big blind, he confirmed the count, called with the bigger stack and Jaijairam folded.

Rendel: KcKs
Julian: TsTd

“oof” was the response from Julian when he saw the big blind monster.

The board ran out Qc9s7c6sQh and no help for Julian. He went out in ninth place for $4,555 while Rendel continued to rebuild his stack.

Ginold Rendel – 4,500,000 (75 bb)

Action folded to Fred Bunchan on the button and he bet 1,000,000 leaving 240,000 behind. Uri Kadosh moved all in with a bigger stack in the small blind, Dylan Jaijairam folded his big, and Bunchan called at risk.

Bunchan: AhJc
Kadosh: KhQs

Bunchan was ahead for a double up but had to dodge two live cards. The board ran out 8h7s6h8s6s and Bunchan doubled up.

Carlos Bermudez

Carlos Bermudez opened to 125,000 from under the gun and Evan Beard called in middle position. Ginold Rendel raised to 500,000 from the hijack and it folded back around to Bermudez. He moved all in for 2,310,000 to get a fold from Beard and call from Rendel.

Rendel: AcKs
Bermudez: AhTh

Rendel was in great shape to send one out and increase his lead but Bermudez paired his ten on the Ts8d5c flop to take the lead. The 7d turn and Js river finished the board, Bermudez clapped his hands, and stacked his chips.

Carlos Bermudez – 4,895,000 (82 bb)
Ginold Rendel – 1,900,000 (32 bb)
