Dash Dudley Doubles Up
On a flop of 1023, Dash Dudley bet 155,000 from the small blind. Gabe Costner raised all in, having Dudley covered. Dudley made the 366,000 chip call and exposed the AA. He was in great shape against the pocket sixes of Costner. The board ran safe for Dudley and he doubled to almost 800,000.
Ashira Lavine Doubles Up
Ashira Lavine open shipped for 251,000 and was called by Sam Paolini. Paolini tabled the 88 and Lavine flipped over the AQ. The turn gave Lavine a pair of queens and they held to double her up to over 500,000.
Drew Crawford Eliminated
Former chip leader Drew Crawford shoved from the button with 350,000 with the J8. He was called by Irving Rice’s A-Q. Crawford failed to beat the over cards and he was eliminated.
Sanjay Pandya Eliminated
Sam Paolini bet 50,000 preflop with pocket queens and Sanjay Pandya moved all in for about 150,000 total. Paolini made the quick call and Pandya tabled A10. The board failed to offer any help and he was eliminated.
