Congratulations to Sammy Wielgus from Israel who finished 7th in our DeepStack Extravaganza IV Event #50 $400 NLH DoubleStack $100K GTD winning $4,975.

Wielgus’ A, K offsuit looked promising until Venerando Villarino turned over pocket Aces. Villarino is now our chip leader with approximately 3.7 million chips.

Congratulations to Mohammed Suhail from the UK who finished 8th in our DeepStack Extravaganza IV Event #50 $400 NLH DoubleStack $100K GTD winning $3,920.

After doubling up twice, Suhail’s suited J, Q proved no match for Venerando Villarino’s pocket Queens.

Congratulations to Italo Etkin from St. George, UT who finished 9th in our DeepStack Extravaganza IV Event #50 $400 NLH DoubleStack $100K GTD winning $2,864.

Having gone all-in with K♦ A♥ against Venerando Villarino pocket eights, when an eight appeared on the turn, Etkin was eliminated.

Now THIS is crazy. Mohammed Suhail doubled up again versus chip leader Seat #10. In both hands, Suhail had suited Q, A versus Seat #10’s pocket nines; however, this time, Suhail flopped a pair of Queens and, again, emerged victorious, clawing himself out of the short-stacked position.

Short-stacked Mohammed Suhail is hanging on by a thread. After rivering a straight versus Seat #10’s pocket nines, Suhail remains on life support with 50,000 chips.

The action is just getting started at our final table. The players are taking a well-deserved 60-minute dinner break, after which play will resume. Stay tuned.

The player in Seat #1 (name withheld) has been eliminated in 10th place after her K, Q offsuit fell to Orlando Barrara’s pocket tens when he flopped a set.

Eric Vallee just doubled up his 260,000 versus Thanh Tran when his Q♥ K♥ held up against Tran’s J♦ Q♦ on an A♥ A♠ 2♦ 2♥ 3♦ board.

We have reached the final table. Our ten skilled players (and their chip counts) are:

Seat #1 (name withheld): 365,000
Jerry Jackson: 1.8 million
Orlando Barrera: 1.705 million
