Devilfish Drowns

Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott eliminated
Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott eliminated

Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott checked the flop of {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Ricardo Pereira checked next to act. Richard Toth then bet 900 and Ulliott called. Pereira also made the call.

The {A-Diamonds} landed on the turn and Ulliott checked again. Pereira opted to fire this time and made a bet for 2,200. After Toth folded, Ulliott asked how much the wager was. After the dealer informed him, Ulliott raised all in for approximately 6,500. Pereira snap-called with the current nuts -- {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}. Ulliott had a chance with the {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a heart flush draw.

The river landed with the {9-Spades} and Ulliott missed. Pereira's Broadway straight held up and he won the pot, eliminating Ulliott from the tournament.

Bonyadi Busts Two and Wins Big Pot

Farzad Bonyadi (Event #1)
Farzad Bonyadi (Event #1)

One player moved all in for 1,400 from middle position and Farzad Bonyadi called from the hijack seat. Play then folded to the player in the small blind and he reraised all in for 16,800. Action moved back to Bonyadi and he began to tank.

Bonyadi was in the tank for about two full minutes as the clock wound down on the level. Many of the players in the room started heading out the door to get an early start to dinner. That's when the first all-in player called the clock on Bonyadi. Bonyadi questioned why he would do such a thing as it's a very big decison for a lot of chips.

"What now?" responded the player.

Bonyadi really didn't know how to respond to that. "What now???" he repeated in even more of a questioning tone.

The dealer called the floor and explained the situation. The floor ruled that he would take note of the lengthy decision, but wouldn't put the clock on Bonyadi because the level was ending and dinner break was upon the players so this decision wouldn't be affecting the blinds. Bonyadi thanked the floor and went back to thinking.

About a minute or so later, Bonyadi made the call holding the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The first all-in player, the shortest of the three, held the {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}. The player in the small blind held the best of it with the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}.

The flop came down {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts} and the queens held so far. The turn {10-Diamonds} gave Bonyadi the lead in the hand and he held from there as the river landed with the {4-Clubs}. The players with the queens slammed his chair, said a few choice words about the situation and then headed out the door. Bonyadi pulled in the pot, quickly stacked his chips and then headed to dinner as the big chip leader here on Day 1a.

The Rules Are a Little Different in France

From early position, Andrew Hinrichsen raised to 700. The player on the button put in a reraise to 1,725 and action moved back to Hinrichsen. He four-bet by only made it 3,000. Why are we saying "only"? Well in France, the rule is you must double the total of the bet in front of you. In this case, Hinrichsen had to double 1,725 and make it at least 3,450 -- an extra 450 that what he wanted to raise to. Hinrichsen obliged and made it 3,450. His opponent moved all in and Hinrichsen folded.

"Could've saved 450," he said.
