Event 1: Dion Doubles Twice

$500 +$60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry) 

Rags opened for a raise, then Eugene Fouksman 3-bet.  Ryan Dion 4-bet-shoved for 2.395 million straight.  Rags folded, but Eugene made the call.

Ryan tabled AK and had Eugene's AQ dominated.  The board ran out dry and Ryan doubled up to ~5 million.

Eugene dropped below 6 million.

Shortly after, the same two players tangled again.

On a flop of A Q 9 -- all clubs -- and with about a million chips in the pot, Ryan was all-in for 5.065 million.  Eugene had 74 suited in clubs and had flopped a flush.  Ryan held A9 suited in spades for two pair.  He was on the verge of elimination, but then another 9 hit the river giving him a full boat.

Ryan chipped up to ~11.1 million and the chip lead.  Eugene was left with only 230k.

  1. Call him Ryan "Big Time".
    What a couple of hands to take the big lead.
