Action Update #2 for Main Event Final Table! 2 years ago

The action has calmed down considerably in the last hour, with few flops being seen and plenty of preflop raises taking down uncontested pots. Here are the highlights from the last hour of action:

Pot for Lam

Hevad Khan raises preflop and is called by Tuan Lam. The flop comes Qh Qd 9h and Lam bets $1.5 million. Khan folds and Lam takes the pot.

Octos for Kalmar

Jerry Yang raises to $1.2 million and Jon Kalmar makes the call quickly out of the big blind. The flop comes Qd 7d 3d and Kalmar quickly checks. Yang checks behind and the turn is the Th. Again, both players check and the river is the 3c. Both players check for a third time and Yang flashes an ace. Kalmar has a pair of eights and takes down the pot.

Another Pot for Kalmar

Jon Kalmar limps-in from the small blind and Hevad Khan checks his option. The flop comes A-10-5 rainbow and both players check, but Kalmar bets out on the 2d turn and induces a fold from Khan, taking down back to back pots.

He's Gonna Blow!

Tuan Lam limps in and Jon Kalmar makes it $1,000,000 to go. Hevad Khan re-raises all-in and the action folds around, setting Khan off on another of his trademark eruptions. Khan has been quiet so far, but releases all of his pent-up rage as Kalmar and Lam fold out.

Nice Call by Kalmar

Jerry Yang and Jon Kalmar see a flop come Q-10-3 rainbow and both players check. The turn is the Th, putting two hearts on the board. Both players check again and the river is the 5s. Yang bets out $1.5 million and Kalmar makes the call. Yang tells him "good call," and shows nine-high to Kalmar's A-K. Ace-high is good and Kalmar takes the pot.

Kravchenko Shoves

Alex Kravchenko open-shoves all-in from the button for about $3.6 million and nobody wants to call. Kravchenko takes down the blinds and antes.

Yang Wakes Up

Jerry Yang raises to $1.2 million from the button and Jon Kalmar makes the call out of the big blind. The flop comes Kc Jc 2h and Kalmar checks to Yang, who bets $2 million. Kalmar beats him to the pot and the turn is the 7d. Kalmar checks to Yang, who bets $5 million and Yang takes the pot.
