Day 4 Live Updates

Hyman Wins Tournament! 3 years ago

After dominating the first few hands of heads-up by continuing to push all-in and utilize his big stack to its best advantage, Zachary Hyman sees a flop with Ted Lawson and the board comes Qs Th 9s. Both players check and the turn is the Qd, prompting both players to check again. The river card is the 2c and all of a sudden Hyman is all- in. Lawson calls immediately, showing Qh 5h for trip queens, but Hyman turns over Ks Js for the flopped king- high straight and since a straight beats trips, Zachary Hyman has won the 2007 Wynn Poker Classic Main Event!

For the victory, Hyman takes home $749,033, as well as a gigantic trophy and the adoration of millions of PokerListings.com readers. Ted Lawson will receive $384,120 and marginally less adulation. Congratulations to both finalists, and to the Wynn for a putting on such a successful tournament!

Moore Bertuzzi'd 3 years ago

On a board of Qs Jc Td, Chris Moore moves all-in and Zachary Hyman makes the call, showing Kh Jd to Moore's Qh Ts. Hyman is left screaming for an ace, a king, or a nine for the win, but the turn is the 4h and so he's down to his last card to eliminate Moore. The river is the Ah and Hyman makes Broadway, sending Moore to the rail in third for $192,060.

With the elimination of Chris Mooore, Hyman and Ted Lawson will play heads-up for the $749,033 first prize. Hyman has Lawson out-chipped by about a five to one margin as play resumes.

The Goose is Loose 3 years ago

On a board of Kh Tc 4d, Chris Roos gets the last of his chips into the middle against who else but Zachary Hyman, who shows Ts Td for a set against Roos' Qs 9c for the gutty straight draw. The board finishes out 8h 9d and Chris "The Canada Goose" Roos has flown the coop, heading south for the winter with a nest egg of $103,712.

Huuuuge Pot 3 years ago

Chris Moore raises to $100,000 from under the gun and Chris Roos re-ups all-in from the small blind. Zachary Hyman looks down at pocket aces in the big blind and calls immediately. Moore gets out of the way and Roos shows Qd Qs. As the players wait for the flop Moore says he laid down a queen, giving Roos one out to bust Hyman, barring any straight or flush possibilities. The flop comes As 7c 4s and Hyman is on his feet, giving his best Roos impression as he cheers and claps as loud as possible. The board finishes out Jd 8d and Hyman is jubilant, slapping fives with the crowd and generally just letting off steam, while Roos prepares to ship $1,150,000 across the felt. The Canada Goose is left with $280,000, while Zachary Hyman is now the clear chip leader.

Hyman Bluffs Lawson 3 years ago

Ted Lawson and Zachary Hyman see a flop come As 5c 4d and both players check. The turn is the Kh and Lawson bets out $200,000. Hyman thinks for a few minutes before putting Lawson all-in, and after some rumination of his own, Lawson lays down Ad 2h for top pair with a weak kicker (and the gutshot straight draw). In response, Hyman shows Kd Qh for second pair as he takes down the pot, and Lawson's head explodes.

Dinnar 3 years ago

The final four will now take an hour-long dinner break, with play to resume at 6:00 PM Pacific Time. We would normally post chip counts here, but Wynn security has got those numbers under wraps and verily threatened PokerListings.com with bodily harm when we tried to tabulate. Suffice it to say, Chris Roos is chip leader, with Zachary Hyman close behind. Chris Moore and Ted Lawson round out the field, but all players are right around the average $990,000 with nobody on life support or in serious danger just yet.

Mouth Muted 3 years ago

Chris Roos raises to $50,000 from the button and Mike Matusow moves all-in from the big blind. Roos quickly calls and shows Qc Qh, but Matusow has a monster in his 5c 2d. The board comes Ac Kh 7h 7s 5s and somehow Roos cracks Matusow's 52o to take down the pot and silence the mouth, sending him to the rail in fifth place with a $76,824 consolation prize.

Big Pot for Hyman 3 years ago

Chris Moore raises to $60,000 from middle position and Zachary Hyman calls in the big blind. The flop comes Ah As -Kh and Hyman checks to Moore, who bets out $75,000. Hyman immediately raises to $150,000 and Moore makes the call. The players check the turn, which is the 6s, but Hyman bets another $75,000 when the river is the 2d. Moore thinks for a few minutes while performing cosmetic surgery on his chip stack, but eventually mucks. Hyman shows Ac 9h as he rakes a substantial pot.

Fischman Netted 3 years ago

Ted Lawson limps in on the button and Chris Roos makes it $50,000 to go. Scott Fischman moves all-in for his last $160,000 and Roos makes the call, showing pocket tens to the Fish's Ad 5c. The board comes Qc 6d Qh Qd 6s, and Roos takes the pot, sending Fischman to the rail in sixth for a $57,618 payday. Roos adds another chapter to his chronical of tack by cheering, clapping, and shouting obnoxiously as Fischman makes his departure.
