Matan Gabay Eliminated in 7th Place ($11,443)

Nível 19 : Blinds 0/0, 12,000 ante

Matan Gabay moved all in for his last 301,000 from under the gun and received a call from Wai Kiat Lee. Thai Ha then raised all in, covering both players. Lee made the fold and Gabay was heads up and at risk against Ha.

Matan Gabay: K♠J♦
Thai Ha: K♦K♣

Gabay was in bad shape, having only runner outs on the 7♠Q♥Q♦ flop. The 8♣ turn left him drawing dead and after the 8♠ river hit he became the first casualty of the final table while Ha collected his chips, narrowing the gap between him and chip leader David Prociak.

On a flop of K♦6♥8♥, action checked to Ryan Laplante in middle position who bet out for 100,000, to which Wai Kiat Lee in the hijack moved all in for 427,000. Every other player opted to fold while Laplante made the call.

Wai Kiat Lee: 9♣7♣
Ryan Laplante: K♥Q♦

Danny Tang on Lee's rail called for an ace, but seemed equally delighted at the sight of the 10♥ on the turn. The river fell the 10♣ and Lee found the full double.

The flop of A♣7♠Q♣ checked through to the 9♣ on the turn. Prociak checked again and James moved all in for approximately 800,000. Prociak seemed bewildered by the bet. After spending some time in the tank, Prociak decided to fold.

Ha Puts Laplante to the Test

Nível 18 : Blinds 0/0, 10,000 ante

Wai Kiat Lee limped in from under the gun as did Thai Ha from early position and Robert James from middle position. Ryan Laplante checked his option on the button.

The flop came 10♣7♦7♥. Lee checked, Ha bet 50,000 and James folded. Laplante raised it up to 175,000, folding out Lee while Ha made the call.

Both players checked the A♠ turn leading to the 9♥ river. Ha bet 670,000, putting Laplante deep into the tank.

After roughly four minutes Laplante said "It would be a pretty good bluff," and folded his cards, allowing Ha to take down a decent pot without showdown.
