Big Hands:
Deepak Bhatti Doubles Up
Deepak Bhatti open shoved 405,000 under-the-gun and was called by Gabe Costner. Bart Davis folds and showed A-K to the table.
Bhatti showed AK and was up against Costner’s 1010. The race was skewed towards Costner since Davis folded the same hand that Bhatti had and elimination seemed likely for Bhatti.
The flop was 226, keeping Costner in the lead until the K fell on the turn. The 4 came on the river and gave the pot to Bhatti, doubling him up to 850,000.
Short Stack Settle Doubles
With just 285,000, Isaac Settle shoved all-in from the button. Bart Davis called the additional 185,000 from the big blind and the hands were turned up. Davis showed the 96 and was slightly behind KJ of Settle.
The dealer ran the board 85QKK meaning that Settle doubled up to 700,000.
Isaac Settle Eliminated in Seventh Place ($88,025)
Shortly after the double up, Settle found his chips in the middle in good shape when he had the JJ against Bart Davis’ A10.
Unfortunately for Settle the flop came A26, giving the lead to Davis. The turn and river did not bring another jack for Settle and was eliminated in seventh place.
Cory Brown Eliminated in Sixth Place ($116,141)
Cory Brown and Gabe Costner got all of the chips in on a flop of 935. Costner showed 107 and was slightly behind the J9.
Costner was searching for a 10 or a heart and after the A came on the turn, the 6 fell on the river, filling Costner’s flush and giving him the pot.
