Hyndi Khomutetsky opened to 1,400,000 from the under the gun, Joel Gola raised, Khomutetsky said all in for 11,075,000 and Gola quickly called for a massive hand between the top two stacks.

Khomutetsky: AdQh
Gola: AcJd

Khomutetsky was way ahead with a chance to take the chip lead and the As5c2h flop was perfectly safe. The 6c turn changed nothing but Gola nailed the Jc river to send Khomutetsky out in sixth place.

Joel Gola limped from under the gun, Hyndi Khomutetsky completed the small blind, and Nenad Medic checked in the big.

The flop was Qs4s3d and Khomutetsky. Medic moved all in for 2,475,000, Gola called and Khomutetsky folded.

Medic: 6s2s
Gola: AcQd

Gola was ahead with top top and Medic needed to catch a spade or a five for his straight. The Kd turn changed nothing, and Medic was eliminated after the 6h river.

Nenad Medic opened to 525,000 from the cutoff and picked up calls from Joel Gola on the button and Chad Evelsage in the big blind.

The flop was 7h4h3c, Eveslage checked, Medic bet 600,000 and Gola raised to 1,800,000. Eveslage got out of the way, Medic moved all in, and Gola called with the smaller stack at risk.

Gola: Ah2h
Medic: QdQc

Medic is ahead with the queens but Gola has flush and straight outs. The 5d turn gives Gola a wheel and the Jh river sends him a huge double.

Joel Gola – 14,950,000 (60 bb)
Nenad Medic – 2,350,000 (9 bb)
