10K Single Day Challenge ($10,000)

Facing a late position open and a button call from Najeem Ajez, Zapatero Gomez squeezed all-in on the small blind for 144,500 (20 BB), and saw Ajez rise to the challenge.

In for a race, Ajez was left in no sweat, having ran a full house on board A♥ 9♦ 4♠ J♣ J♦ to deliver the bust.

Renat Bohdanov risked his last 43,500 (7 BB) with A♦ J♣ and faced Zapatero Gomez' 5♦ 5♠ for a flip.

Bohdanov instantly flopped the advantage on J♦ T♣ 9♣ , further improving to trip jacks on runout J♠ 4♠ for the double up.

Three players were vying for a pot of 64,000 in the middle on board 8♠ A♠ 4♥ T♠ . Action was checked to Quan Qiu on the button, prompting him to fork out a bet of 28,000. Zapatero check called from utg, yet laid it down as Qiu went for a final 103,000 on river 8♣ .

Simas Karaliunas opened 11,000 on the cutoff, called by player on the button. Zapatero Gomez made it 40,000 to go, and saw Najeem Ajez right behind, cold jam with a covering stack.

All three opted out, leaving Ajez to show a 4♠ as he added the 13 big blind boost onto his stack.

Michael Andersson defended his hijack open and called a 32,000 three bet from Zapatero Gomez on the small blind.

On board 6♣ 9♦ T♣ 2♥ , Gomez check called two streets - 20,000 and 35,000, and went on to lead all-in on river K♣ . Andersson gave it a thought, but eventually threw in the fold, saving his 11 big blinds behind.

Simas Karaliunas opened 6,000 on the cutoff, called behind by player on the button. Zapatero Gomez on the small blind, made it 35,000 to go, and picked up the pot uncontested.
