[user68268]

Nível 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Gary Benson: / /
Matt Grapenthien: / /
Todd Brunson: / /

Benson led with a bet on fourth street, and then Matt Grapenthien called before Todd Brunson raised. Benson called all in for 7,000 total, and Grapenthien also called the raise.

On fifth and sixth streets, Grapenthien check-called bets from Brunson before everyone received seventh street face down. Grapenthien checked, and Brunson checked behind.

Brunson showed the for a pair of sixes. Grapenthien mucked to give Brunson the side pot, and then Benson showed the before sweating his last card. Benson needed an ace, king, queen, jack, ten, or six to stay alive, but he pulled the and made the only pair he couldn't win with.

With that, Brunson moved to nearly 600,000 in chips while the rest of the tournament fell to the bubble.

No Money for Soulier

Nível 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Fabrice Soulier has not managed to cash in this event because he just ran into Vladimir Schemelev's full house. On third street, Schemelev had the bring-in and Soulier completed. The action folded back to the Russian and he called. On fifth street, Soulier bet with a pair of queens showing and Schemelev raised. Soulier reraised and Schemelev called.

On sixth Soulier checked, Schemelev bet, Soulier raised all in and the Russian pro called.

Schemelev: / /
Soulier: / /

Soulier seemed livid after Schemelev turned over his full house and the Frenchman ultimately failed to turn his three of a kind into a bigger full house.

"This is not real!" Soulier cried out. "You play great, Vlad, you play great. You play great, just like Todd," Soulier added sarcastically.

After a pause, Soulier found out he still had some chips left and he said, "What were you thinking?" before settling down.

Ultimately, Soulier lasted two more hands before he hit the rail in 19th place.

A Big One For Brunson

Nível 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On seventh street, Brunson checked again and Losev bet. Brunson called and the showdown occurred:

Losev: / /

Losev tabled for two pair and that was no good against Brunson's for a bigger two pair combination.
