Zanot Runs Into Richez's Kings

Livello 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Thomas Zanot won a $6,000,000 jackpot playing Pai Gow earlier this year. But the poker pro won't be adding the $12,100,000 Main Event top prize after a preflop all in confrontation against Clement Richez.

Zanot three-bet to 180,000 from middle position before Richez made it 525,000. Zanot then shoved all in for around 1,600,000 and Richez snap-called.

Thomas Zanot: A♠9♠
Clement Richez: K♦K♠

Richez asked the dealer to hold up dealing the flop as he whipped out his phone and began taking pictures of the action as the board finally came 4♠7♣K♥, giving him top set.

"That's a good start," Zanot said, resigned to his fate as 6♦ turn left him drawing dead heading to the 9♣ river as Richez scooped the massive pot.

Shortly after, Harsheel Kothari eliminated Maryjo Zogman on the same table.

Benjamin Grise had bet 450,000 into the pot of about 800,000 on the completed board of J♥9♠8♠8♣K♠, and Hermilo Garza shoved for his last 760,000.

Grise snap-called to see Garza's J♣J♠ for jacks full of eights, but it was no good as Grise tabled K♦K♣, eliminating Garza with a bigger full house.

Rigby Flips Mariotti to the Rail

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Nicholas Rigby opened to 80,000 from under the gun only to see Camden Mariotti three-bet to 225,000 in middle position. Action folded back around to Rigby who four-bet enough to force Mariotti all in with the latter calling off for his remaining 755,000.

Camden Mariotti: J♠J♣
Nicholas Rigby: A♥K♠

Mariotti would need to win a flip to survive but that seemed an unlikely outcome after the flop came A♣7♠6♥. The 9♠ turn left Mariotti needing to find a jack on the river to survive but he was unable to do so with the 3♥ completing the board instead.
