Mark Fisher

Mark Fisher opened to 16,000 and Brandon Adams called in the small blind. Pablo Fernandez moved all in for 250,000 from the big blind and Fisher called all in for his last 212,000.

Fisher: KcKh
Fernandez: Ad2d

Fisher was dominating for the double and the 8s7h2c flop seemed to cause little harm. Fernandez made trip deuces on the 2s turn and the bad beat was complete on the 6d river to send Fisher out in eighth place.

They are now on the money bubble with six getting paid.

Pablo Fernandez – 460,000 (58 bb)

Action folded around to Jonathan Little in the small blind and he moved all in for 53,000. After confirming the count, Pablo Fernandez called in the big blind.

Little: Qc7h
Fernandez: 3s3h

“That’s the best I could have hoped for,” Little laughed. “A coin flip.”

Little took the lead on the AsQh4s flop but Fernandez added a wheel draw on the 5c turn that got there on the 2d river.

Pablo Fernandez – 248,000 (41 bb)

Justin Young

It was three-ways to a 8d6h2s flop and Justin Young checked from the big blind. Larry Greenberg was under the gun and checked as well before Brandon Adam bet 18,000.

Young called, Greenberg folded, and the turn came Ks. Young checked, Adams bet 48,000 and Young check-raised to 130,000. Adams called and the river was Kc.

Young quickly moved all in for 231,000 and Adams took his time. He cut out the calling chips, thought some more, and finally called.

Adams: As8s
Young: 7s5s

Adams was good with kings and eights while Youngs busted flush draw sent him to the rail in tenth place.

Brandon Adams – 1,100,000 (183 bb)

Young: TsTc

Young was ahead and faded the Kd8c6d flop. Mandavia added a gutshot draw on the Jh turn but blanked the 5h river to go out in 13th place.

Justin Young – 315,000 (53 bb)
Ankush Mandavia – Eliminated

On the other table at the same time, Ajay Chabra eliminated Jerry Wong with Ad4h topping 7h7s. They had sent Wong out while Chabra moved over 1,000,000.
