For It Was Whitton

Livello 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Robert Zarzycki got his last few big blinds into the middle and was isolated by the bigger stack of Michael Whitton.

Robert Zarzycki: 6♥6♠4♥7♠
Michael Whitton: A♠Q♥J♠J♥

The board came down all Broadway cards and since Whitton had the suits covered, there was hardly a sweat on the turn ore river, as all Zarzycki could catch was a six.

Dentale Ends It for Weisman

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

PokerNews saw Dylan Weisman collecting their belongings to exit the tournament area and Michael Dentale still had the A♠Ax7♠10x in font of him. The last time these two clashed, Weisman had found the double. There was no such luck this time, as it was reported that Weisman had the Q♦J♦10♦7♣ and was unable to improve to beat Dentale's aces.

Dentale had only good things to say of Weisman, remarking that he's an excellent player and that it was a pleasure to play with him.

Weisman will be one to watch in Omaha events throughout the summer.

Livello 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Kevin Rand placed a bet of 36,000 on a flop that read J♠8♥10♥ and was promptly raised to 132,000 by a player who chose to remain anonymous. Both players got the rest of the chips in and cards were quickly on the backs.

Anonymous Player: A♣K♠Q♠8x
Kevin Rand: A♠J♥J♣K♥

Rand had flopped a monster with top set and the flush draw to go with it. His opponent was drawing thin with a broadway wrap.

The turn and river were both bricks and Rand was catapulted over to over two million in chips.

Jonathan England: J♣J♠10♣7♠

England's flopped two pair was in the lead, but the K♦ turn brought Failla some additional outs. The 8♥ river completed Failla's flush, earning the full double-up.

Weisman is the Good Hand Kid

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

On a board reading 6♥4♣4♠A♠5♥, Dylan Weisman had placed an all in wager for 128,000 on the river and Michael Dentale was at a decision. He spent a bit of time trying to get a read on Weisman, but eventually gave him a crying call.

Weisman quickly tabled, 4♦5♠7♥8♠ for the rivered full house and Dentale made mention he knew he probably wasn't bluffing but he flashed the A♦K♦7x3x to show he felt he was just a little too strong to fold with his made straight.

"Good hand, kid... good hand." said Dentale in a way only someone from the east coast could.

Giocatore	Chip	Avanzamento
Michael Dentale	1,350,000 -150,000	-150,000
