Samuel Guillen has solidified his massive Day 1C chip lead by providing the final elimination of the night, and a sizable one at that in the form of Gabriel Vezina.

Guillen opens to 24,000 in early position and is called by Alexandre Bolduc to his left. Action then folds to Vezina who moves all in for 301,000 from the small blind.

Guillen pauses briefly, using a couple of time bank chips before announcing that he is all in as well.

Bolduc comments on the sickness of the spot as he has a sizable stack also, but elects to fold.

Guillen has Vezina dominated, and after the runout, Vezina can’t save his tournament life sending his stack to Guillen who takes the overall chip lead through three opening flights.

Samuel Guillen – 1,129,000 (112 bb)
