Insane Runout Spells the End for Livingston

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Alex Livingston
Alex Livingston

Alex Livingston moved all in for 275,000 from early position and was looked up by Guillermo Sanchez Otero on the button.

Alex Livingston: J?10? All in
Guillermo Sanchez Otero: 7?7?

"I like my hand," Livingston told the table as he saw that he would need to win a flip to survive. The A?Q?K? flop instantly improved the at-risk player to broadway and seemingly locked up the pot for Livingston. Otero found some hope, however, on the 7? turn with the A? river completing a rollercoaster runout that saw Otero's runner-runner full house down the flopped joint of Livingston.

Jesse Lonis
Jesse Lonis

Jesse Lonis raised with A?A? from middle position and Hon Cheong Lee called with 6?6?, who was sitting to the direct left of Lonis.

The 4?4?K? flop kept Lonis in the lead and he bet 45,000, with Lee making the call.

The river came the A?, and Lonis regained the lead. Lonis bet 480,000 and Lee shoved for 930,000, with Lonis making a snap call.

Kristen Foxen
Kristen Foxen

Kristen Foxen opened to 60,000 from early position and received calls from Hai Pham on the button as well as Yingge Yan in the big blind.

Action checked to Pham following the 2?9?A? flop and he bet 110,000. Yan responded by moving all in for 270,000. Foxen called while Pham, after some consideration, chose to get out of the way.

Yingge Yan: A?10? All in
Kristen Foxen: A?A?

The case ace had made its way onto the flop to leave Yan drawing dead as the dealer quickly completed the board with Q?J? to hand Foxen a sizable pot as her strong Day 5 continues.

Angelov Takes a Massive Pot with Aces

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Boris Angelov
Boris Angelov

"It might be the biggest pot of the tournament so far," a player told PokerNews, looking at the 2,000,000 chip pot and the 3?8?10?2? board he had in front of him.

According to this player, the cutoff opened preflop, Jacob Thibodeau on the button three-bet to 200,000, and Boris Angelov in the big blind four-bet to 550,000. Thibodeau called, then on the flop, he called a continuation bet of 500,000.

On the turn, Angelov bet 750,000 and Thibodeau called once more to see the 10? river, where Angelov moved all-in for approximately 2,000,000.

Thibodeau went deep into the tank, and after more than five minutes, he still couldn't make a decision. But when another player called the clock, Thibodeau made the call with JxJx. However Angelov had A?A? and scooped this massive pot. Thibodeau was covered, so he was eliminated in 300st place for $45,000.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
James Reid
James Reid

James Reid raised to 60,000 in the cutoff and Diogo Veiga called on the button. Alexandros Michas then moved all in for 700,000 in the big blind, Reid called, and Veiga folded.

Alexandros Michas: 5?5? All in
James Reid: A?A?

Reid has woken up with aces to leave Michas at serious risk of elimination, and no help was forthcoming on the 8?Q?7?J?4? as Michas was sent to the rail.

"I had sevens," Veiga said, admitting he would've hit a set to win the pot had he played.

Reid Uses One Time; Two-Time Finalist Saout Eliminated

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Antoine Saout
Antoine Saout

The action folded to Jim Reid in the small blind and he pushed all-in for Antoine Saout to call with the covering stack from the big blind.

Jim Reid: 3?3? All in
Antoine Saout: K?Q?

Reid asked for low cards but then asked for clubs on the Q?J?5? flop. That came with the 2? turn to leave Saout drawing dead to win the pot, as the 2? river paired the board. Reid asked for 405,000 and Saout was left with 120,000.

One hand later, Saout jammed for 120,000 in the small blind and Diogo Veiga called in the big blind.

Antoine Saout: Q?7? All in
Diogo Veiga: A?J?

The 9?4?2?10?10? board missed both players and ace-jack dealt the final blow. Saout had reached the WSOP Main Event final table in Las Vegas including a third place for $3,479,669 in 2009.

Reid then declared he had used his one time, to which Oren Haziza replied "oh, you get a new one tomorrow".

"You get a one time every day? I didn't know that ... you learn something every day," Reid finished the conversation.
