Paul Louis

The Joshua Richison Show continued. Action folded around to Paul Louis in the small blind and he moved all in for 950,000. Richison called without looking and he was live.

Louis: Ks4c
Richison: 9h5s

Louis needed to fade the two live cards but Richison paired on the Jc9s4s flop. Louis picked up a flush draw on the 8s turn but he was the next out when the river came 6d.

Joshua Richison – 8,900,000 (89 bb)

Scott Vetter

It was heads-up between Joshua Richison and Scott Vetter with the Ts9c6d3sTc board complete and more than 1,200,000 in the pot.

Richison moved all in with the bigger stack and Vetter would have to call off for his final 2,250,000. He thought for several minutes as the two talked it back and forth. It looked like Vetter was going to fold, commenting about Richison’s aggression, before he shrug-called.

Richison: JsTh
Vetter: Ah9c

Vetter’s second pair was no good against Richison’s trip tens to send him to the payout desk.

Joshua Richison – 8,600,000 (86 bb)
Scott Vetter – Eliminated in 7th place ($14,024)

Carlo Buzzetta

Everyone folded around to Byron Schenk in the small blind and he moved all in. Carlo Buzetta was in the big blind with 1,300,000 and called at risk.

Schenk: 4c4h
Buzzetta: JdJs

Buzzetta was in great position to double through Schenk and the AcQh7d was safe. He faded the 3h turn but Schenk hit his two-outer on the 4s river to send him out.

Byron Schenk – 3,900,000 (39 bb)
Carlo Buzzetta – Eliminated in 8th place ($11,089)

Josh Wasserman

Josh Wasserman open-shoved from under the gun for 960,000 and it folded around to Joshua Richison in the big blind. He asked for a count and called before it was complete.

Richison: As9c
Wasserman: JcJh

Wasserman was ahead for the double but the Ad8c5s flop but Richison in the lead. The Tc turn changed nothing and Wasserman was eliminated after the 7h river.

Joshua Richison – 4,100,000 (41 bb)

Paul Louis

Alfred Karlsson opened to 200,000 from early position and picked up calls from Paul Louis and Joshua Richison in the blinds. Louis quickly moved all in after the 7c6c4h flop and Richison called just as quickly. Karlsson released and the cards were flipped up.

Louis: 4s4c
Richison: 5h2s

Louis flopped a set of fours and Richison needed to catch his open-ended straight draw to send him out. The Th turn was a blank and Louis has his double after the 7h river.

Paul Louis – 2,200,000 (22 bb)
Joshua Richison – 2,900,000 (29 bb)

Action folded around the table to Dr. Morris Funk in the small blind and he moved all in for 625,000. Byron Schenk checked his cards and quickly called with a monster.

A tough spot for the doctor. He missed the Qd8d4c flop but he picked up a flush draw on the 9d turn. The comeback fell short and the 6s river sent him out in tenth place.
