Big Pot Restores Mash's Stack

Nível 32 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Chip leader for two straight days, Howard Mash is not used to seeing his count fall down the rankings. Having dropped as low as sixth in chips today, he's restored his fortunes lately, in part through winning a large pot against Roger Stewart. The biggest bet (over 2.2 million) was on the river, the board out: .

Only Mash's hand was face-up: the for the wheel straight. This ace on the river had clearly hit Stewart, as Mash was telling him, "That ace was a bad card for you." Stewart, aware of this, has dropped into the danger zone with just over a million chips left.

"It Was Push or Fold," Says Zihni

Nível 32 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Ali Zihni raised to 475,000 in the cutoff and it folded round to big blind Mansour Alipourfard, who made it 1,600,000 to go. Zihni regarded Alipourfard's remaining stack, confirmed it was arranged in mini stacks of ten chips totalling around 3,200,000, and considered his options. He ended up folding his hand.

"It was shove or fold," said Zihni.

"You have to shove," said Alipourfard, not strictly accurately.

"I wasn't sure which to do so I passed," admitted Zihni.

Fontaine Jams Big Stack, "Just Like That"

Nível 32 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Jean-René Fontaine has proven time and again that he's not afraid to put his chips in the middle, whether short or wielding one of the largest stacks in the room. When Adam Richardson opened for 375,000 in the cutoff, he announced, "All in," which covered Richardson's 12,000,000 or so. This all-or-nothing bet against another very hefty stack gave Richardson pause.

"The whole ten million, just like that. Wheeeee," said Richardson. "I wish you spoke English so we could have a little chat." Fontaine, not the most garrulous at the table in any language, showed Richardson his .

"I owe you a show," Richardson promised.
