Menard Crushes Kaverman
Nível 9
: 400/800, 0 ante
A brief but intense preflop raising war resulted Byron Kaverman being all-in and at risk of elimination from this tournament.
Kaverman revealed 
and was way behind to the 
that dominated him. Neither player improved on the 
board, Menard winning the pot by virtue of his king-kicker, and like that Kaverman was gone.
"I got all of Byron's chips," said Menard to Marvin Rettenmaier who had walked over to watch the hand play out.
"Wow, he had a lot of chips, too." said Rettenmaier.

Yaginuma Wins A Massive Pot and Claims the Chip Lead
Nível 10
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
Jesse Yaginuma opened to 2,000 from the cutoff and then called when David Martirosyan in the small blind three-bet to 6,000. The flop came down 
, the small blind bet and Yaginuma called.
The turn brought the 
into play and Martirosyan fired a second barrel, this one worth 11,500. Again, Yaginuma called. The river was the and now Martirosyan checked. Yaginuma, instead of checking behind, moved all-in, creating a massive pot!
Martirosyan went into the tank for several minutes before letting his hand go.
Yaginuma mucked his hand so we may never know what he actually held. One thing is for sure, he is our current chip leader with 40-minutes left of the final level.

Martirosyan Vaults Up the Ladder
Nível 10
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
In two incredible hands, David Martirosyan went from short stack to at or near the chip lead.
First, Martirosyan got involved with Jess Yaginuma when Yaginuma opened for 2,000 from early position and Martirosyan three-bet to 4,400 from middle position. Yaginuma made the call and, after a flop of 
they got it all in.
Martirosyan turned over and Yaginuma said "you're good," as he tabled 
. He was quickly not good however on the 
turn. The 
spiked on the river, though and Martirosyan doubled up with the straight.
A couple of hands later, Martirosyan tangled with another former chip leader in Shankar Pillai when they got it all in preflop.
Martirosyan: 
Pillai:
The board ran out 
and again, Martirosyan makes a big hand after being behind to double up and race toward the chip lead.
