On the very next hand after Steve Sung was able to double-up all the money went in with Sung as the serious underdog. Brandon Cantu opened from the button and Sung moved all-in. Cantu snap-called and tabled 4 4.

Sung looked dejected and refused to turn over his hand. "What if I was slow-rolling you?" he said with a smile. Eventually the cards were rolled and we saw he was in rough shape with 3 3. The flop came A 9 7 and Sung was reduced to two outs or some sort of runner-runner chop-fiasco to stay alive.

The turn was the 6 and Sung was down to the two remaining treys. The river was the 8 and just like that we have a champion! Steve Sung takes $585,000 for runner-up while Brandon Cantu nets a cool $1 million as well as the $40,000 he earned in bounties and bonuses.

Steve Sung made it $60k pre flop and Brandon Cantu made the call. The 9 Q K flop saw Sung comein with a $100k bet immediately push all. Sung called and was ahead of Cantu’s J 9 with K 5 for top pair. The 8 turn gave Cantu some serious possibilities, but the 6 wasn’t one of them and Sung doubled up.

After a few small pots a huge hand just played out heads up between Brandon Cantu and Steve Sung. On a 7 8 6 flop Cantu bet out 200k and Sung called. The A turn was checked by both players. The J river was a different story though as Cantu bet $500k and Sung quickly called. The jack had given Cantu a set on the river and a $7 million to $500k chip lead that looks insurmountable.

Jen Harman picked up two pots in a row with all in moves. First she pushed when Steve Sung limped in on her big blind forcing him to fold. Then she shoved from the small blind and Brandon Cantu laid it down.

She open shoved a few hands later from the button and picked up the blinds again. Then she got caught. She open shoved again only to see Brandon Cantu go all in behind her. Sung folded and it was show time.

Brandon's 9 9 had the slight lead in the race against Harman's A K. The crowd wasn't sure how to react as the J K 9 fell giving Cantu a set and Harman a pair, but she was done on the 4 turn. The crowd still reacted wildly when the K river came down but it was over for Harman. She is the third place finisher and will cash $330,000.

Cantu picks up his sixth bounty of the tournament and will go into heads up with $6 million to Steve Sung's $1.5 million. It's time to bring the money out!

Brandon Cantu made a $100k bet to open a pot and after Steve Sung folded Jen Harman shoved. Cantu called the extra $102,000 as Harman said she only looked at one.

It’s A 8 for Jen against Brandon’s J 10 and both players leave the table watching from a distance as the 8 7 Q flop falls. The turn is the 6 changing nothing, but the 4 river brings a roar from the crowd as Harman doubles up.

After a seemingly interminable amount of four-handed play we are finally down to three here at Bay 101. Noah Jefferson opened from the button and Brandon Cantu folded his small blind. Steve Sung paused for just a moment in the big blind before moving all-in. Jefferson snap-called.

Jefferson was the all-in player and we saw it was a race between his A K and the 7 7 of Sung. The flop came J 5 3 and Jefferson was still looking for either an ace or a king. The turn was the 9, no help, and the river was the 7, nailing an overkill set for Sung and sending Noah Jefferson to the exit in fourth place. He’ll take $265,000 and Steve Sung will take his stack.

New Counts

Brandon Cantu is using his stack and the old check-raise to push Steve Sung around a bit. Cantu bet $100k into a 4 2 9 flop and Sung called. Cantu checked the 8 turn and Sung bet $150k only to see Cantu check-raise all in. With his tournament life hanging in the balance, Sung laid it down.

Sung got his revenge a few hands later. After a series of Cantu raise and take it hands. Sung called the usual $55k Cantu pre flop bet going heads up to the flop. On the A 8 2 flop Cantu bet out $100k and Sung made it $250k more, taking down the pot.

Jefferson Dumps Chips

Jennifer Harman opened up the betting in what would be a disastrous hand for Noah Jefferson. She made it $45k to go and Noah raised it up to $233k. Brandon Cantu was next to act and moved all in. Harman got out of the way and some how, some way Jefferson laid it down leaving himself just $330k behind.

The Six Million Dollar Man

No, it's not Lee Majors, it's our chip leader Brandon Cantu and he's currently flirting with the $6 million mark.

100th Hand: Kings for Harman; No Action Though

Jennifer Harman opens from the button to $45,000 and gets a call from Brandon Cantu in the big blind. The flop comes down ace high with two clubs and they both check it all the way to the river. Harman shows pocket kings which are good for what’s in the middle. “I need it!” says Harman as she rakes the modest pot.

Sung: Also Stays Fly (Not quite as fly as Cantu however)

Steve Sung has found his stride lately here at the final table. After Brandon Cantu made his standard $42k raise to open a pot, Sung flat called. Noah Jefferson also called in the big blind. The 4 3 2 flop was checked to Sung on the button and he made it $100,000. After Cantu and Jefferson backed away Sung picked up the pot.

Sung Exhibits More Flyness

Sung opened a few hands later to $42k and Noah Jefferson and Brandon Cantu called in the blinds. Cantu bet $50k into the 10 10 4 flop and Sung called. Jefferson folded and 5 turn was checked down. The 4 showed up on the river and both players checked before Sung showed a four for the boat, raking yet another pot. Sung’s stack is in the $850,000 range and he’s second in chips right now.

J-Harm with the All-In

Brandon Cantu opens from under the gun, which is the cut-off when four-handed, and after Steve Sung folds his button Jennifer Harman moves all-in from the small blind. Noah Jefferson quickly gets out of the way in the big blind and after a count we discover it’s $390,000 more for Cantu to call. He looks pained and it seems he wants to call but after a lot of thought he decides to let it go. Harman is chipping back up but is still the shortstack with around $500,000.

Another One for Harman

Jennifer Harman is on the comeback trail and followed up the pot described above with a nice pre-flop move. Brandon Cantu opens to $42,000 from the button and Steve Sung calls in the small blind.

Harman, in the big blind, pauses for a moment before announcing raise. She counts out chips and settles on an additional $125,000. Cantu gets out of the way and Sung follows suit. Harman rakes the pot uncontested.

One for Sung

Brandon Cantu makes it $50k straight and Steve Sung makes the call On the 2 6 4 flop Cantu bets $100,000 and Sung takes his time before raising it up another $150,000 forcing Cantu to fold.

Everday Chip Counts

Here are the counts for the remaining four people, Sly and the Family Stone-style.

Blinds Go Up

As we finish this post the blinds have been increased to $8,000/$16,000. The ante remains at $2,000. 

Sung: Back in tha Game

It’s folded to Brandon Cantu on the button and he comes in for a standard opening raise. Steve Sung makes the call in the big blind and the flop comes down A K J. Cantu quickly leads out for $60,000 and after a bit of thought Sung makes the call.

The turn is the 9 and Cantu cuts out $200,000 from his stack, dropping it in the middle of the table. Sung begins taking stock of his remaining stack and opts to just call. They both check the 7 river and Sung felts A T which appears to be good for the pot. We’re not sure on the exact count but Sung is rapidly approaching the $1 million mark.

Jefferson Takes a Big Hit; More Chips for Chip Leader

Noah Jefferson just took a big hit, losing almost half his stack as a result of being forced to fold on the river. Brandon Cantu opened from the cut-off and got calls from Steve Sung on the button and Jefferson in the big blind.

The flop came down 6 6 3 and after Sung and Jefferson both checked Cantu fired $75,000. Sung made the call but Jefferson announced raise, making it $300,000 to go. Cantu only took a moment before paying the difference and after Sung got out of the way the turn brought the A. Both players quickly checked and the T hit the river. Noah checked again and Cantu wasted no time moving all-in.

Jefferson went way into the tank and his anxiety was clear, hands shaking and a visible sheen of sweat appearing on his forehead. After a lot of staring and chip-shuffling Jefferson said, "It's sick but I really think you have a six," and folded his hand. Jefferson's left with somewhere around $500,000 and Cantu extends his lead with close to $5.5 million.

Jefferson Steaming

In the middle of arguing with Steve Sung about what he had in an earlier hand, Noah Jefferson just took a few chips off of him. He made it $45k to go pre-flop in the first hand and Brandon Cantu and Sung both called in the blinds

The A 2 8 flop was checked by Cantu before Sung sent a $45k bet across the line. Jefferson wasted little time moving all in and both players folded.

The very next hand looked very much the same as Noah made it $45k to go pre flop in the and again, Cantu called before Sung asked for his chip count and also called.

The flop fell 10 3 2, Sung bet out $55k and Jefferson pulled the same move, shoving all in.

“Again,” Sung said, before folding. “You can’t be bluffing.
