Harold open-shoved from early position for 760,000 and it folded to Wally Maddah in the big blind. He did the slow peek at his cards, thought for a minute, and called all in for 555,000.

Maddah:
Alexander:

Maddah needed to catch to stay in the game but missed the flop. The turn did nothing to change his fate but the river sent him the double.

Wally Maddah – 1,200,000
Harold Alexander – 210,000

Wally Maddah open-shoved from the hijack for 560,000 and Harold Alexander moved all in from the button for more. That move elicited folds from the blinds and a mild curse from Maddah.

Maddah:
Alexander:

Maddah laughed and stood up from his seat. Then sat back down after the flop came . The turn had Alexander asking for a six and he got his answer on the river for the unlikely chop.

Wally Maddah – 615,000
Harold Alexander – 850,000

Daniel Ramirez lost a large part of his stack sending a double to Quentin Jones and needed to make a move. Harold Alexander opened to 120,000 from under the gun and Ramirez moved all in for 140,000 from the button. Stephen Bristow called from the big blind and Alexander stuck around for the extra 20,000.

Both live players checked down the board and Bristow showed for tens up. That was good enough to be Ramirez’ and Alexander’s to take the pot.

Stephen Bristow – 2,150,000
Daniel Ramirez – Eliminated in 8th place ($4,264)

There was a long period at the final table where things were cruising along with no big hands. Then things went sideways.

Eric Morian opened to 100,000 from the hijack and Jeremiah Williams moved all in for 825,000 from the small blind. Morian called to create the first big hand of the final table.

Morian:
Williams:

Williams was ahead for the double but Morian hit the flop. Williams had open-ended straight draw outs along with his overs and retook the lead on the turn. The river finished to give Williams the double and put Morian down near the felt.

He found a small double up then saw Hunter Cichy move all in from the button for 755,000. Morian called all in for approximately 250,000 for the small blind and Stephen Bristow slow-peeled his big.

“(Expletive deleted),” Bristow said. “I need a count.”

After hearing the number, he called with a chance for the double knockout.

Cichy:
Morian:
Bristow:

“I’m live for the triple up!” Morian exclaimed.

Bristow was ahead for the double KO and the broke the logjam at the final table.

The final 12 players returned from dinner and wasted no time getting to the final table. Wayne Daley hit the rail on the first hand back and Herbert Woodbery was looking to send someone else. Gary Cordeiro moved all in for 580,000 and Woodbery called with a dominant hand.

Woodbery:
Cordeiro:

Cordeiro was in trouble but crushed the flop to move way ahead. Woodbery picked up boat outs on the turn but the river was a blank to send most of his chips across the table.

A few hands later he was all in with and racing against Harold Alexander’s . That coin flip came to a quick end when Alexander caught a decent flop to send Woodbery out after two rough hands.

Tournament staff paused the clock and they redrew seats for the final table.

Action folded around to Brandon Rivera in the small blind and he moved all in for 345,000. Hunter Cichy thought for a moment in the big blind and called for a little bit more.

Cichy:
Rivera:

“You never thought you’d have an over!” Wally Maddah laughed.

Rivera was very live with the two over cards but blanked the board to exit in 13th place.

Hunter Cichy – 760,000
Brandon Rivera – Eliminated

Daniel Ramirez and Eric Morian were in a pre-flop battle when Ramirez four-bet shoved into Morian’s also huge stack. Morian called off for 799,000 total and was in great shape.

Morian:
Ramirez:

It was a great spot for Morian and his queens held on the board for the massive double.

Eric Morian – 1,650,000
Daniel Ramirez – 476,000
