Darrick Arreola

Action was opened under the gun by Darrick Arreola to 60,000,000 with only about 20,000,000 left behind. The button folded and Moshe Refaelowitz only took a moment before moving all in. The big blind folded and Arreola stood up and said to his rail, "This isn't the hand I wanted to do this with, but I call."

Darrick Arreola: 8?7?
Moshe Refaelowitz: 8?8?

Arreola held the chip lead for most of the day, but some missteps led him to a full board of 3?K?7?A?A? which would ultimately send him to the rail in fourth place.

Darrick Arreola went all in three times out of seven hands, including once over an open from Moshe Refaelowitz to which Arreola said, "I would like the record to show that I beat him in a pot!", as a bit of rivalry has developed. Refaelowitz had been getting the better of Arreola for the latter part of the day.

Action folded to Dae Woong Song on the button who only took a moment before going all in. The big blind folded and Pete Chen snap called out of the big blind.

The cards hit their backs.

Dae Woong Song: Q?J?
Pete Chen: J?J?

The 8?4?A? flop was clean, but the Q? on the turn had Chen drawing to one out. The 3? river was not that out and Song would get the full double in a crucial moment.

Pete Chen and Moshe Refaelowitz are neck and neck for the lead with with Dae Woong Song trailing by over 100,000,000.

Darrick Arreola had the chip lead slip out of his hands over a series of pots that he either limp folded or folded post flop. He'd still be plenty in contention with a double up, as it's still anyone's game as the final four battle for life changing money and the prestegious gold bracelet.

David Danlag went all in from under the gun for a little over 50,000,000 and it looked like it would get through until Pete Chen put in the call from the big blind.

David Danlag: 3?3?
Pete Chen: Q?Q?

Danlag's rail were quick to call for a three but when the board ran out 4?K?10?K?9?, their hope withered. Danlag was ready to spin and get heads up but today wasn't his day for the gold.
