Scott Montgomery opened to 38,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 83,000 by Luis Rodriguez Cruz on the button. The blinds got out of the way and Montgomery decided to flat and see a flop, which came .
Montgomery checked, prompting a 94,000 c-bet from Cruz. Montgomery responded by raising to 205,000 and Cruz didn't take much time before announcing he was all-in, which was more than enough to put Montgomery all in. Montgomery counted down his remaining stack and slid his cards into the muck.
Following the hand, Montgomery is down to his last 270,000 while Cruz is up to 1,950,000.
Artem Metalidi started out the action by making it 32,000 preflop. Bertrand Grospellier was next to act on the button and he moved all in for 212,000. Andrew Lichtenberger folded the small blind and Simon Charette called from the big blind. Metalidi folded and thanked Charette for making the call so he didn't have to.
Grospellier:
Charette:
Grospellier held a strong advantage going to the flop, and a flop furthered it. A on the turn looked to be a great card for ElkY, but it also gave Charette an open-ended straight draw. A on the river allowed Grospellier to breathe easy as he had secured a double up.
Joseph Urgo's past couple of hands have been a rollercoaster, losing a big one and then doubling up a few hands later. Unfortunately the ride is over for Urgo. After moving all in Urgo received a call from his old nemesis Simon Charette and was at risk of being knock out.
Urgo:
Charette:
A was probably the worst flop Urgo could have seen as an ace fell pairing his opponent and two hearts hit the felt giving him a flush draw to boot. Only the could come and save Urgo, and the on the turn wasn't even close. Charette hit his flush and Urgo was drawing dead. A landed on the river and Urgo was eliminated in 9th place.

Joseph Urgo:
Simon Charette:

Urgo:
