Event 34 - Flack is Back! 1 year ago

This tournament is over! The 34th bracelet of this WSOP is out of the display case and on Layne Flack’s wrist. The sixth of Layne’s illustrious career, this one has earned him $577,725. Flack is a fixture on the tournament circuit and this win shows everyone that he’s still a force to be reckoned with.

Before Flack went heads-up with Dan Makowsky we saw Fernando Jacobo go broke in third. Read on for the final hand as well as that previous bustication.

Flack Stacks Mak

Dan Makowsky is no longer, falling victim to the steamroller also known as Layne Flack. On the final hand Flack potted from the button and Makowsky re-potted from the big blind. Flack re-raised again and Makowsky called all-in.

Flack: Kc Kh Jh 2s

Makowsky: Ac Kd 4d 4s

The board ran Tc 7d 5d 6h Ks and Flack’s top set is more than enough to seal the deal and end this short-lived match. Makowsky is out as runner-up for $355,050 while Flack gets the big money and the trophy.

Fernandez Funked (3rd)

Jacobo Fernandez has been sent packing third and will grab $222,659 after running in to the Layne Flack machine. Daniel Makowsky limped and Fernandez made it $200,000 from the small blind. Flack called from the big blind and Makowsky said goodnight.

The flop fell 10c 10s 6h and after Flack potted it Fernandez shoved. Flack made the call with 6s 6c 4h 2s for the flopped boat against Fernandez’ Ac As Kd 8s. No surprises on the 4h turn or Ks river and Fernandez goes out third and, oh by the way, he’ll take over top spot in the Player Of The Year race.

Event 34 - Can I Still Rebuy 1 year ago

The action has been serious with two casualties falling over the past hour. Layne Flack has taken control, looks relaxed and the WSOP staff looks like they are starting to fit him for number six.

Forrest Fired! (5th)

Ted Forrest is gone and can be found right now picking up $144,427 from the cage after getting picked off by Daniel Makowsky. Forrst bet out $130k and when it folded to Makowsky in the small blind he made the call. Jacobo Fernandez came along for the ride and when the Jd 7c 4d flop hit Makowsky bet pot. Fernandez dropped out but Forrest called all in for his last few chips.

Makowsky had hit the flop hard with Js Jc 5c 5d while Forrest was in huge trouble holding Ah Kh 9d 8h. The 5h turn and 8c river ended all hope for Ted.

Taking Flack

Dario Alioto gets it all in against Layne Flack on a Qs 10s 6c Ad board after the turn with Alioto potting, Flack raising and Alioto calling all in.

Layne's got way more chips and As 9s 3s 2h for a pair of aces and the nut flush draw while Alioto's got Kh 10h Qh for two pair and a straight draw. But when the 9c brick falls down on the river Alioto survives doubling through Flack.

Layne is still over $2 million but Alioto is now a threat with $1.2 million himself.

Alioto Allotted (4th)

A few hands after doubling through Flack, the two got it all in again with Flack holding As Ah 5h 6h on a Qc 8c 7h flop. Alioto had the flush draw with 6c 5c 4h 3c but when the Js turn and Qh river came down he was gone.

Out fourth Alioto cashes $180,543.

Three handed Flack has $3,095,000, Jacobo Fernandez has $1,235,000 and brining up the rear is Dan Makowsky with $705,000.
