HomeRam Farajash has been taking a beating to his stack all day. He managed to land two double ups however will need much more to catch up to the leaders.
On his first double up, Kai Paulsen raised to 5200, Farajash moved all in for 17.5k, Yuri Odagiri four-bet to 30k, and it was a heads up match with Paulsen getting out of the way. Farajash had J-J and Odagiri with 7-7. The board bricked.
On his next double up, he limped in on the utg seat then saw a flop with both blinds in the hand. The flop ran A♣ 4♣ 2♠. Dave Chargualaf on the bb seat bet 5500, Farajash moved all in, Paulsen check-folded, and Chargualaf called.
Farajash 2♦ 2♣ set
Chargualaf 9♣ 8♣ flush draw
The turn 7♥ and river A♥ improved Farajash to a full house and he doubled up to 42k.
