19.45:<\/strong><\/p>\nBodo is out! Ian went all-in with A8 and Bodo called with a pair of deuces. Great flop for Ian with 10-8-A and an even more amazing turn A knocks Bodo out in the third position.<\/p>\n
Bodo says \u201cI had 8 big blinds left. I had to take the 50 \/ 50 chance. I had to push, couldn\u2019t wait longer with the high blinds\u201d.<\/p>\n
19.35:<\/strong><\/p>\nIan Frazer says he has managed to build his stack up despite being card dead. \u201cI\u2019ve had three hands. I\u2019ve had Kings, Ace King and Jacks twice. Those are my hands all day. It is a grind. You can\u2019t raise these guys because they\u2019ll come over the top of you. Just got to hope you can nick a chunk out of some of them and they\u2019ll go short.\u201d<\/p>\n
19.30:<\/strong><\/p>\nPlayers are back at the table and the latest chip counts are:<\/p>\n
\n- Remy Biechel 635,000<\/li>\n
- Bodo\u00a0Sbrzesny\u00a0610,000<\/li>\n
- Ian Frazer 555,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

18.30<\/div>\n
Felipe makes a bold shove all-in with 7-9 but gets mercilessly called by Ian Frazer and his J-Q. Ian hits J on the flop and a Q on the river to send Felipe out in 4th position. Felipe\u2019s comments \u201cIt happens, it is poker. The hand against Remy I had to play as I did. It was just unfortunate because after that I didn\u2019t get any cards\u201d<\/div>\n
18.10<\/div>\n
Big hand. Felipe has A5 in the small blind, pushes all-in but Remy in the big blind picks up wired pair of eights and calls. No help on the board and Felipe is now a short stack.<\/div>\n
17.40<\/div>\n
The dragon has breathed his last flame. He got all in preflop with pocket fives, but found himself up against Remy\u00b4s Ace Jack offsuit. The flop came 10 J K. Dragan begged the dealer to peel off a 5, but there was no help as the turn and river came 4 and 3.<\/div>\n

15.05:<\/strong><\/p>\nMike Sexton is out. In Remy’s words: “The blinds are 5,000 \/ 10,000 and I have Jacks. Mike raised to 24,000.\u00a0This is the third time he has raised – so I think my Jacks are the best\u00a0hand because his range is very wide. I had just lost a big pot and only\u00a0had 200,000 left so I wanted Mike’s chips. I think it’s a good spot for\u00a0me so I push all in. He calls with QJ and the board comes 6-6-2-2-8. I’m\u00a0very happy with the way I played.”<\/p>\n
14.30:<\/strong><\/p>\nFelipe Ramos just had a good fight versus Mike Sexton. Mike raised preflop, Dragan called and Felipe called from the big blind. J-9-7 flop got some action as Mike bet, Dragan called, Felipe raised, Mike reraised, Dragan folded and Felipe ended moving all-in. After a bit of thinking Mike decided to fold and leave Felipe a chip leader with just over 500,000 chips.<\/p>\n
Both Mike and Dragan are very short now.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
14.00:<\/strong><\/p>\nBodo and Dragan in a big pot. Bodo had 6-3 of clubs. Flop came 6-4-3 with two hearts, Bodo bet just below the pot size and Dragan called. The turn was 10 of clubs, Bodo again bet just under the pot size and Dragan called. River was 3 giving Bodo the full house. Bodo bet but got a huge reraise by Dragan. After some minutes, Bodo called and Dragan mucked his hand. Bodo is now just under 500,000 in chips.<\/p>\n
13.30:<\/strong><\/p>\nDragan raised from an early position, Mike reraised him from the big blind and Dragan called. Flop was 9-7-8 rainbow, Mike bet, Dragan called. Turn was 10 with the second spade, both players checked. River is 3 of spades. Mike checked, Dragan bet just above the pot size, Mike tanked and finally called. Dragan showed AK of spades and took the big pot with the flush.<\/p>\n
\u201cDragon flashes his tail once again\u201d says Ian Frazer to Dragan Galic.<\/p>\n
12.10:<\/strong><\/p>\nI\u2019ve spotted Felipe Ramos. Felipe\u2019s preparation for the final was to spend 3 hours in the bathtub in his room yesterday night with a view over the Las Vegas desert. Felipe has his iPhone on today playing some of the Brazilian favourites including JQuest, Alexandre Pires and Jeito Moleque. It helps relax he says.<\/p>\n
Also the Mojave ironing skills<\/a> video has gotten him a lot of comments over Twitter, which is good. His mom was unhappy though as he never irons at home!<\/p>\n11.40:<\/strong><\/p>\nRemy Biechel, Bodo Sbrzesny and the second placed qualifier Miguel Proulx spent a lot of time over breakfast discussing different poker hands played over the last few days and Bodo’s hard decisions. Mike Sexton, Ian Frazer and Dragan Galic were also seen around… no sign of Felipe Ramos though…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
11.25:<\/strong><\/p>\nThe guys did different preparation routines for the final today. Remy Biechel went to bed early, woke up early and lost few hundreds on the video poker slots here at the M Resort. Bodo stayed in his hotel room and watched G.I. Joe. Dragan Galic was the last one to leave the bar at the PartyPoker qualifier after party yesterday.<\/p>\n
By the way most of the big players showed up to the after party yesterday night, which meant that Party qualifiers were able to meet, greet and have a drink with their favourite poker stars.<\/p>\n
11.10:<\/strong><\/p>\nThe guys will play at the TV table today. The play is supposed to start at 12.00 as long as Ian Frazer can show up on time. These are the starting stacks:<\/p>\n
\n- Felipe Ramos: 400,000 chips<\/li>\n
- Remy Biechel: 330,000 chips<\/li>\n
- Bodo Sbrzesny: 320,000 chips<\/li>\n
