Down to his last 27,500, Dejuante Alexander ended up all in and at risk with the ![]()
and was called by table neighbor Jonathan Kamhazi with the ![]()
.
Alexander flopped middle set on ![]()
![]()
, but Kamhazi immediately connected with the
turn. A blank
river spelled the end for Alexander and Kamhazi was all smiles.
"Thank you dealer," he joked and tossed a T-1,000 chip over.

We found big blind Thomas Boivin thinking things over on the river, with ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
on the felt. There was about 70,000 in the middle and Johannes Becker had set him in for about 55,000 from middle position. Boivin thought awhile and then announced a call, tabling ![]()
for just ace-high.
It was good, as Becker could only smile and compliment the call and show ![]()
.

Miguel Capriles raised to 4,000 first to act and Thi Xoa Nguyen on the button three-bet to 15,000. Jason Mercier in the small blind had as much behind and gave it some serious contemplation before sending the cards into the muck. Capriles came along to see the ![]()
![]()
flop and checked his option. Nguyen continued for 10,000 and that was enough to shut down any further resistance.
