The rest of the board ran out Q6. Rodrigues had missed his flush and straight draws but had made runner runner two pair to take both the mai and side pot, eliminating Weiner in the process while taking a huge chunk out of Rcheulishvili’s stack.

Boatman Puts a Massive Cooler on Cho

On Day 2 of Event #4: 2,000 Pot Limit Omaha, it was Level 18 (5,000/10,000/10,000) when reporter David Salituro saw a board of AA56. Barny Boatman bet 25,000 from the big blind before Wooram Cho raised to 85,000 in the small blind.

Boatman called and the 7 fell on the river. Cho then led out for another 225,000.

Boatman came back with an all-in shove for 720,000 and Cho snap-called, turning over AJ64 for aces full of sixes. Boatman, though, had AQ107 for aces over sevens to earn the massive pot and a double-up that vaulted him into the tournament chip lead.

Later on in the same tournament in Level 21 (10,000/20,000/20,000), reporter Christian Zetzsche saw Dario Alioto raise to 40,000 and Namhyung Kim called from the next seat, table short stack Mick Heder called from the big blind as well. The trio headed to the Q84 flop on which Heder bet the pot for 150,000 with 20,000 behind.

Alioto opted to flat-call before Kim studied the stack of his table neighbour and then raised the pot. Heder called all-in and Alioto then pushed all-in. Kim wasn’t going anywhere and called to create the biggest pot of the tournament so far.

Mick Heder: 5543Dario Alioto: AAJ5Namhyung Kim: A1088

Kim’s middle set was up against two flush draws and he also blocked one of the aces as well.

The 7 turn gave Heder straight outs but it was Alioto who got there with the 3 river, as he sunk back into his chair. Heder’s exit in 14th place was confirmed while Alioto doubled through Kim for 1,200,000.

Gab Yong Kim Straightened Out

With three players remaining in Event #4, it was Level 27 (40,000/80,000/80,000) when Salituro reported a big hand. It began when Hokyiu Lee raised to 240,000 in the small blind before Gab Yong Kim three-bet to 720,000.
