John Duthie has had a pretty barren 2011, with the exception of his 11th place finish at the WSOP HU Championship during Vegas this Summer, so this deep run has been a breath of fresh air for the man known as "Mr Big."
Amir Lehavot raised to 35,000 from the hijack seat and Duthie moved his last 147,000 across the line, stood up and put a fag in his mouth. Elio Fox was in the big blind and he made the call before the dealers eyes stared at Lehavot who obviously had a decision. Lehavot decided to isolate and his 1 million raise was sufficient. Fox moved out of the way and Duthie was heads-up versus Lehavot.
Showdown
Lehavot | |
Duthie |
So Duthie was in a little bit of pain but it didn't last long - he was dead on the flop!
Flop:
"At least I could have had a sweat," he says to Barny Boatman on the rail.
The turn and river are irrelevant and Duthies leaves us with 17 players and after one more elimination we will have a slight pay increase to €43,000.

The title says enough, and we just watched two pots that prove it.
In the first, Dario Sammartino limped in from the small blind, and Max Silver checked for a free flop. It came , and Silver called a bet of 17,000. Sammartino checked to him on the turn, then called 30,000 to see the river. Silver bet 111,000, and Sammartino paid him off.
The Brit showed up , and his big blind special took the first chunk out of Sammartino's stack. The second would come just a few hands later.
We picked up the flop as Sammartino was betting 40,000 from his position under the gun. Patrik Antonius would check-fold, but Silver flatted to see the turn card. It was the , and Sammartino slowly tapped the table. Silver too his cue to make a bet of 88,000, but Sammartino wanted to play for more. He check-raised to 239,000 with two towering stacks of chips, and Silver didn't waste too much time making the call. On the river, both players were content to check it down.
Silver waited until Sammartino showed his airball , then showed his to take the pot. He's really turning the screws now, working his stack to the front at the expense of the former chip leader.

Over on the featured table, we heard Michael Drummond shove all in for 253,000, and big stack Dermot Blain tanked and made the call with a chance at the knockout. He was ahead, but Drummond was drawing live for the double.
Showdown
Drummond:
Blain:
When the dealer turned the flop up, the was visible in the door, but it came as part of a Drummond-pleasing flop. The turn improved him to the straight, and he only needed to dodge the three remaining tens to stay alive. The river was the , though, and Blain is forced to part with a chunk of his stack. It's tough to count over there, but he should still be over 1 million -- likely closer to 1.1 million.
