UPDATE: 1:20AM
Rhett Butler finally made an aggressive move at a pot with pocket 4′s, but the callers were Jamie Gold and Allen Cunningham. They checked a jack-high flop, then Gold bet at the turn and Cunningham folded. Gold had K-Jo, and took Butler out in 5th ($3,216,182). Cunningham’s stack has continued to erode, including a bluff from Wasicka with K-Q on an ace-high board and three hearts.
12:45AM
On a flop of K-Q-2, Wasicka bets, Gold raises, Wasicka shoves, Gold instacalls with A-K vs. Gold’s K-10. Finally, finally, somebody gets lucky against Gold and doubles through with significance. Wasicka now has $21M and Gold is down to $39M with Allen Cunningham at $15M. Michael Binger and Rhett Butler hold steady at $6.5M each.
