Steven Malpere opened the action with a raise to 40,000 but was quickly three-bet by Jonathan Jaffe in the cut-off to 92,000.
Eracles Panayiotou sternly said "Raise" as he pushed forward 235,000 and Malpere quickly got out of the way. After a few moments Jaffe announced he was all in and Eracles immediately squirmed in his seat. After about 2 minutes he announced call.
Jaffe: [Ah][6c]
Eracles: [Ad][Kd]

Eracles had Jaffe dominated preflop but the tides would turn when the dealer spread the [6h][7h][9c] flop and Jaffe would now have Eracles reverse dominated.

The [As] hit the river and Jaffe quickly announced he was all in.
Mitrokostas would again go into the tank, this time for well over 6 minutes. He continued to talk himself through the hand over and over again, apologizing for the table for taking so long. Eventually he would fold and Jaffe would show him the [Jh][2h] for a jack high flush.
Mitrokostas thanked him for showing him the hand and turned over [Ac][Ks].

Event 18: Smith Cracks Aces; Final 10 Players Reached

Level 22
Blinds 6000/12000/2000
Players Remaining: 13

Aaron Smith is no stranger to final tables. Smith has over $275,000 in lifetime earnings including two titles here at Foxwoods. Smith has been grinding a short stack for the last level or so but has been picking his spots carefully and chipping up.

In the last hand Smith found himself all in and in bad shape when his [Kh][Kc] was up against the [Ad][Ah] of his opponent.
The dealer spread out the flop and sure enough the [Kd] was right in the window followed by the [5d][Jc].
The [10d] on the turn would provide his opponent with more outs to knock out Smith but the [Js] river would lock up the pot for Smith.

Smith now sits with 430,000 as we redraw for the final table of 10 and will post final table chip counts once the players are done drawing their seats.

Play will end for the night once we hit 9 players. 

Event 18: Jaffe Crosses 2,000,000

Level 22
Blinds 6000/12000/2000
Players Remaining: 14

Mount Jaffe
Jonathan Jaffe opened the action with a raise to 23,000 from middle position and was quickly three-bet by the small blind to 55,000. Not to be deterred, Jaffe put in a four-bet to 135,000 and the small blind elected to just call.
The dealer spread the [6d][22][10c] flop and the small blind checked his option to Jaffe.
"92,000" Jaffe announced as he cut chips out of the mountain of chips he had in front of himself.
The small blind announced all in before Jaffe's chips even crossed the bet line and Jaffe snap called.
Small Blind: [Ac][Qs]
Jaffe: [Qh][Qc]

The board ran out [4d][3c] and Jaffe would scoop another big pot as he now sits on over 2,400,000 chips.

Spiro Mitrokostas collects his new chips.

After a pre-flop raising war, Spiro Mitrokostas and Tim Reilly were both all in with over 340,000 chips in the middle.

Reilly: [Ah][Kh]
Mitrokostas: [As][Qs]

Reilly had Mitrokostas crushed and after the [4d][5h][6h] flop, Mitrokostas was drawing extremely thin.

The [7d] gave Mitrokostas a few extra outs to a chop, but he wouldn't need them as he managed to find the [Qd] on the river.

Reilly was in disbelief as was Mitrokostas and after a few moments Reilly packed his things and headed out of the tournament area.

Mitrokostas now sits with 345,000.

Players are now on their last 15 minute break of the night.

Andy Frankenberger
Andy Frankenberger raised under the gun to 4,500. Action folded around to the button who called and both players in the blinds tagged along.
The flop was [2d][7d][4s], both blinds and Frankenberger checked the action to the button who opened the betting to 8,000. The small blind called and the big blind announced he was all in for 48,700. Frankenberger went deep into the tank and eventually said call.
The button and the small blind both got out of the way. 

Big blind: [4h][9h]
Frankenberger: [7h][7s]

The board ran out [Ad][4c] and Frankenberger would rake in a big pot. He now sits with over 200,000 with 17 minutes remaining in level 14.

Action folded to Mike Jarvela in middle position who announced he was all in for his last 28,400. Spiro Mitrokostas called out of the small blind only to see Tim Reilly announce that he was all in from the big blind. Mitrokostas called.
Mitrokostas: [Ah][Jd]
Jarvela: [7d][8d]

Players Remaining: 85
Justin Adams

On the first hand back from break Justin Adams found himself all in and at risk.

Adams: [As][4s]
Opponent: [8c][8h]

[Qs][7s][8s]

Adams would have to dodge a queen, a seven, an eight, or the board running out a pair to get the double. The [2c] turn kept Adams ahead and he would secure the double with the [4c] river.

Adams is up to 135,000

Event 18: Campbell's Ladies Propel Him Into Chip Lead

Level 12
Blinds 600/1200
Players Remaining: 85

Campbell rakes in a massive pot.
James Campbell opened cut off and was immediately three-bet by Jonathan Jaffe on the button. The small blind put in a four-bet and it led to a clicking battle that ended with James Campbell all in and at risk in a huge pot.

Campbell: [Qh][Qc]
Small Blind: [Ac][Kh]

The board ran out [3c][9d][2d][6d][3h] and Campbell would double up to over 280,000 which currently has him at the top of the chip counts.

Players are currently on their second 15-minute break of the day. 

Event 18: Paredes Flushed Out of the Main

Level 12
Blinds 600/1200/200
Players Remaining: 88

A player raised from under the gun to 3,000 and the action folded around to the small blind who tagged along. Dave Paredes announced all in from the big blind, the original raiser folded and the small blind snap called.

Paredes: [Qh][Qd]
Big Blind: [9d][9c]

The flop came [Kc][Qc][9d] and Paredes was in great shape to double up. The turn was the [4c] providing the player in the big blind additional outs to a flush, and sure enough the [Ac] hit the river to send Paredes to the rail.

There is 18 minutes left in level 12 and the players will be on their second 15 minute break at the end of this level.

Event 18: Mitrokostas Busts Dube...Twice

Level 10
Blinds 400/800/100
Players Remaining: 135
Spiro Mitrokostas

After already busting Mark Dube earlier today when his [As][Qh] ran down Dube's [Jc][Jd], Spiro Mitrokostas has busted Dube for the second time. In the most recent hand Dube found himself all in and at risk for his last 19,575 with [Qd][Jd]. Mitrokostas went into the tank and eventually called with [Ac][Qs] and was in great shape to send Dube packing.
The dealer spread the [10h][Kd][Jh] flop and Mitrokostas improved to broadway. The [7c] on the turn had Dube drawing to only a chop, but he would recieve no such help with the [10s] river, and Mitrokostas would send Dube to the rail for the second time today.
Mitrokostas now sits with over 140,000.

With registration now closed, the final number of entries is 238. The prize pool and payouts will be posted soon!
