Level 29: 25,000-50,000, 5,000 ante
Hand #138 - Steve Sung raises from the cutoff to 130,000, Andras Koroknai reraises from the small blind to 320,000, and Sung calls. The flop comes 8
22
, Koroknai bets 375,000, and Sung moves all in for about 1.7 million.
Koroknai calls with KK
, and Sung is dominated with QQ. Sung will need to catch a queen to stay alive.
The last two cards are blanks, and Andras Koroknai wins the pot with his pocket kings, and eliminates Steve Sung from the tournament.
Steve Sung - Out in 8th Place ($135,888)
Level 28: 20,000-40,000, 5,000 ante
Hand #104 - Gevork Kasabyan raises under the gun to 95,000, winning the blinds and antes.
Hand #105 - Tri Huynh raises from early position to 100,000, Raymond Dolan calls from middle position, and Andras Koroknai calls from the button. The flop comes 9
98, Huynh and Dolan both check, Koroknai bets 80,000, Huynh folds, and Dolan calls.
The turn card is the K, Dolan checks, Koroknai bets 375,000, and Dolan calls. The river card double-pairs the board with the 8, and both players check.
Raymond Dolan shows AQ to win the pot with the two pair on the board and his ace kicker, and Koroknai mucks.
Raymond Dolan - 2,550,000
Andras Koroknai - 1,800,000
Level 28: 20,000-40,000, 5,000 ante
Hand #103 - Jean-Claude Moussa moves all in under the gun for 875,000, and somebody asks, "Why so much?" Moussa says, "I don't know, I didn't think I had that much. I'm sick." (And Moussa means "sick" in the literal sense, because he's not feeling well, and is constantly holding tissues to his nose to keep it from running.)
The action folds to Andras Koroknai, and he asks, "How much?" Moussa says, "Eight hundred. Too much." Koroknai calls with 88, and Moussa shows AK -- it's a race situation.
The board comes A52JK, and Moussa wins the pot with two pair, aces and kings, to double up in chips.
Carlos Mortensen says he folded 9-9 from middle position, and if he had called he obviously would've been eliminated. "Now I'm really freerolling."
Jean-Claude Moussa - 1,700,000
Andras Koroknai - 2,900,000
Level 28: 20,000-40,000, 5,000 ante
Hand #100 - Steve Sung raises under the gun to 105,000, winning the blinds and antes.
Hand #101 - Raymond Dolan raises from the small blind to 100,000, winning the blinds and antes.
Hand #102 - Chipleader Andras Koroknai raises under the gun to 100,000, and Tri Huynh calls from late position. The flop comes J74, Koroknai bets 135,000, and Huynh calls. The turn card pairs the board with the 4, Koroknai bets 285,000, and Huynh calls.
The river card is the K, Koroknai bets 350,000, and Huynh calls with AA. Koroknai shows AA, and it's a chopped pot.
Think about what just happened.
This tournament has been stuck at nine players for more than four hours, and two players are dealt pocket aces -- and there isn't a single raise other than the initial preflop open. If these players aren't getting it all in with pocket aces, what chance do we have of getting down to six players before 3:00 am?
Level 25: 10,000-20,000, 3,000 ante
With only a big blind and two antes in her stack, everyone expects Mari Lou Morelli to be the next player to bust.
Andras Koroknai enters the next pot from middle position (its unclear if he limped or raised), Mari Lou Morelli is all in from the button for 23,000, Timothy Begley calls from the small blind and Gevork Kasabyan calls from the big blind. It's a four-way pot with Morelli facing elimination.
Koroknai, Begley, and Kasabyan check all the way on a board of A9245, and Mari Lou Morelli shows 8-4 for a glimmer of hope with a pair of fours. But Begley shows A-8 for a pair of eights, and Kasabyan shows 10-3 to win the pot with a five-high straight. (Andras Koroknai mucks.)
Mari Lou Morelli, the last woman standing in this tournament, is eliminated in 11th place. The remaining 10 players redraw for seats at a single table.
Gevork Kasabyan - 900,000
Mari Lou Morelli - Out in 11th Place ($67,944)
Level 25: 10,000-20,000, 3,000 ante
After a flop of 554 with about 100,000 in the pot, Jean-Claude Moussa checks the small blind, Andras Koroknai bets 75,000 from the big blind, and Moussa calls. The turn card is the K, and both players check.
The river card trips the board with the 5, Moussa checks, Koroknai bets 140,000, and Moussa calls. Koroknai shows JJ to win the pot, and Moussa mucks.
Andras Koroknai - 2,900,000
Jean-Claude Moussa - 1,020,000
Level 24: 9,000-18,000, 3,000 ante
With the board showing Q1054 on the turn, Andras Koroknai checks, Mari Lou Morelli bets 80,000, and Koroknai asks for a count of Morelli's remaining stack -- she has around 430,000. Koroknai bets enough to put Morelli all in, and Morelli tanks for a few minutes before she folds. Koroknai takes the pot.
Andras Koroknai - 2,830,000
Mari Lou Morelli - 430,000
Level 24: 9,000-18,000, 3,000 ante
Andras Koroknai raises from middle position to 45,000, Johnny Chan reraises from the cutoff to 155,000, Koroknai moves all in, and Chan calls all in for about 650,000 with AQ. Koroknai shows 66, and it's a race situation.
The board comes J5377, and Koroknai wins the pot with his pocket sixes to eliminate multiple WSOP champion Johnny Chan from the tournament.
Andras Koroknai - 2,400,000
Johnny Chan - Out in 12th Place ($67,944)
Level 23: 8,000-16,000, 2,000 ante
Masa Kagawa moves all in from the button, and Andras Koroknai calls from the big blind with A10. Kagawa shows AQ, and he'll need it to hold to stay alive.
The board comes K3264, and Koroknai wins the pot with a heart flush to eliminate Kagawa.
Andras Koroknai - 1,300,000
Masa Kagawa - Out in 18th Place ($52,925)
Level 23: 8,000-16,000, 2,000 ante
Andras Koroknai raises under the gun to 40,000, Conoor Allisen moves all in from the button for 346,000, and Koroknai asks for an exact count before he calls with AJ. Allisen shows AJ, and it's a likely chop situation.
The board comes 99576, and the two players chop the pot.
Andras Koroknai - 1,225,000
Conoor Allisen - 360,000
