In this hand, the heavy action started on the turn.
Board:
Éric Aucoin led out with 250K, and was raised to 775K by Alberto Sayde. Jeffrey Manza 3bet it to 1,650,000, which got Aucoin to fold. Sayde, however, was going nowhere. He was made, and could still improve, but was in a worse shape than he thought.
He went all-in for just over 3M, and Manza was all too happy about it.
Sayde:
Manza:
What a face-off! The river came… ! Clean, at least from Manza’s perspective.
Meanwhile, more brutality was witnessed at the other side of the hall. Michael Philippe Gathy and David Shao had a major altercation and escalated the bets until both were all-in for 5M effective.
Gathy:
Mccormack:
Board:
A 10,000,000 pot was pushed to Gathy.
