Dylan DeStefano Eliminated in 19th Place by Artem Vezhenkov

Level 22: 15,000 / 30,000 ante: 30,000
Dylan DeStefano

Artem Vezhenkov raises from the hijack to 60,000, Dylan DeStefano reraises from the button to 175,000, and Vezhenkov thinks for a while before he moves all in.


DeStefano quickly calls all in for roughly 660,000 with A K , and he needs it to hold to stay alive against Vezhenkov's Q T .


The board comes 9 6 2 7 8 , and Vezhenkov rivers a ten-high straight to win the pot and eliminate DeStefano in 19th place.

Dylan DeStefano Doubles Thru Lynn Gilmartin

Level 19: 10,000 / 15,000 ante: 15,000

From under the gun, Lynn Gilmartin raises to 30,000 and Dylan DeStefano calls on the button whereas Hugues Girard comes along from the big blind.


With the flop showing J 5 3 , Girard check-folds when Gilmartin bets 55,000 and DeStefano calls.


Gilmartin leads the T turn for 100,000 and then jams the A river. DeStefano calls both times and doubles for 212,000 on the river with A 9 for the flopped goods, as Gilmartin is unable to improve on her J J for a set of jacks.

Neng Zhao

Neng Zhao in the big blind gets it in against Dylan DeStefano on a flop of 7 6 2 and his T 8 for a gutshot and flush draw has two live cards as well, as DeStefano exposes the A 7 for top pair and top kicker.


The turn is the 4 to seal the double for Zhao, who then says "unlucky buddy" once the T river completes the board.

Dylan DeStefano Double Leaves Yunsheng Sun on Fumes

Level 15: 3,000 / 6,000 ante: 6,000
Dylan DeStefano

There is some uproar on table nine as a large pot unfolds between Yunsheng Sun and Dylan DeStefano. With some 175,000 in the middle to the Q 8 6 flop, DeStefano is all-in and at risk for 278,000 with the K K .


Sun has him barely covered and reveals the A J for the nut flush. Instead, Sun spikes the A on the turn to take the lead and leave DeStefano on the verge of elimination very close to the money bubble.


One more twist to the story is to follow, as the river brings the K and that is also the reason for the uproar.
