Lijo Loses Some to Been
Aaron Been and Lander Lijo, who both played the Super High Roller yesterday, clashed in the Main Event just now.
Been opened the hijack for 22,000 and Lijo called from the button. The big blind came along as well to make it three-handed on [9s9h5c]. The big blind checked and Been bet 25,000. Lijo raised to 75,000 and the big blind folded. Been called.
Been check-called another 150,000 on the [Jc] turn before they both checked the [5s] on the river. Been showed [7h7c] and Lijo mucked.

Nomuro Doubles Through Scholten
We picked up the action on the turn as big blind Freek Scholten bet out 75,000 on [8hJcKd] [9h]. His opponent, partypoker sponsored player Renato Nomura, shoved for 229,000 from middle position. Scholten called.
Freek Scholten: [AhTh]
Renato Nomura: [QdTs]
The [2d] on the river was the wrong kind of red card for Scholten and Nomura doubled.

Fernandez Busts Gonzalez
Two high rollers just clashed, and it was the younger one to bite the dust. We missed most of the action, but table mate Ryan Riess was kind enough to fill us in on some of the details.
Fabrizio Gonzalez opened from early position and the small blind called. Leo Fernandez squeezed from the big blind and Gonzalez called, the small blind folded.
Fernandez would bet all three streets on [As9sKd], [3d] (300,000), [7h] (450,000.)
Gonzalez called all the way -including all-in on the river- but mucked upon being shown [Ac3c] by Fernandez.

Ludovic Geilich Eliminated
Ludovic Geilich was seen sitting with a stack of just 37,000, a fraction of the 1,000,000 we had seen him with just before. Catching our glance, he explained what happened.
Farid Jattin, who had just sat down, opened the action with a raise to 19,000 from the cutoff. Geilich found [AhKh] in the small blind and three-bet to 80,000. The big blind got out of the way but Jattin four-bet to 245,000. Geilich shoved for 1,000,000 effectively and Jattin called with [QxQx].
The flop was good for Geilich with [KxJx5x], but the [9x] on the turn and [Tx] on the river gave Jattin the straight.
Geilich had a few big blinds left after that hand but was seen exiting the tournament not much later.

Nomura Short After Tangling With Barbero
When we arrived, the action was already on the turn but table mate Freek Scholten explained what had happened after the hand was over.
partypoker’s Renato Nomura opened the action to 16,000 from the hijack and small blind Jose Barbero three-bet to 51,000. The big blind folded, Nomuro called.
The flop came [9s5c2d] and Barbero bet 51,000. Nomura called.
Barbero bet another 225,000 on the [Qs] turn and Nomura called once more.
The [Jh] completed the board and Barbero shoved. Nomura folded rather quickly.
