Darren Shebell Eliminated in 19th Place ($2,982)

[user38873]

Nível 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

After a four-way pot to fourth, Darren Shebell faced a pair of sevens showing for Farhad Mobassery and was the last player to fold, showing his in the hole with around one full big bet behind. Soon after those remaining chips went into the middle in a three-way hand with Bertrand Grospellier and Stephen Rivers.

Darren Shebell: /
Bertrand Grospellier: / /
Stephen Rivers: / /

Shebell was all in after fourth and both Rivers and Grospellier called before checking down fifth to seventh. Grospellier flashed for two pair and Shebell wanted to muck his cards, but his ace-high was exposed. Rivers showed a busted draw and Shebell was eliminated in 19th place.

Robert Campbell Eliminated in 20th Place ($2,982)

[user340093]

Nível 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Robert Campbell and Elias Hourani tangled in a pot that would see Campbell getting eliminated in a cruel fashion.

Campbell was betting on fourth and fifth street and then ended up all in when Hourani bet on sixth, covering Campbell's remaining stack. Campbell committed his chips in but he heard terrible news:

"Three deuces," Hourani said and Campbell realized that his opponent hit a set on sixth street.

Campbell still had a chance to outdraw his rival but he found a blank six on the river and walked away in 20th place.

Perry Friedman Eliminated in 21st Place ($2,982)

[user340093]

Nível 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Maxwell Troy catapulted his stack all the way to the top in a massive hand that involved a knockout. We arrived at the table when the action was on fourth street and three players were in for a capped round: Troy, Julien Martini, and Perry Friedman.

Martini then bet on fifth and Friedman called for all his remaining chips. Troy woke up with a check-raise and Martini called.

They both checked sixth street and Friedman joked, "Now they check me down!"

Troy finally bet on the river, earning one more call from Martini and the showdown began:

Perry Friedman: / /
Julien Martini: / /
Maxwell Troy: /

Troy made a straight and Martini mucked his hand. Friedman was still drawing live, having a set of tens. He couldn't peel a river card that would match any of those he already had, and Troy scooped the giant pot, eliminating Friedman and wounding Martini.

"I tried to check-raise you on sixth but you didn't bite," Troy said to Martini, revealing that he had a gutter and hit it. Jameson Painter then called Troy out for the phrase he said to Ferguson before dinner: "Some play great, some catch great."

Troy laughed out loud while raking in the monster pot that allowed him to take over the chip lead. "That's a good one! You gotta put that in that he said that!"

Nível 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Andrew Van Dervolgen: / /
Katherine Fleck: / - fold
Michael Moore: / /

Andrew Van Dervolgen completed with a queen showing and Katherine Fleck called, as did Michael Moore. On fourth, Van Dervolgen was all in for 2,000 and Fleck raised to 6,000. Moore made it three bets and Fleck gave it some thought.

"You have exactly the nightmare you don't want to see," Moore said, and Fleck folded shortly after.

Upon showdown, Moore showed a pair of kings and improved to kings and fours on fifth. While Van Dervolgen made inferior two pair eventually with queens and deuces, he was eliminated in 22nd place for $2,982.

[user38873]

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Within two hands, the stack of Warren Colman had been reduced to zero with Farhad Mobassery taking most of it and Frankie O'Dell claiming the remainder in the next hand.

Warren Colman: / /
Farhad Mobassery: / /

Colman completed with the king and Mobassery called before Colman bet fourth to seventh. Mobassery called from fourth to sixth and raised on seventh. Colman called and mucked when he was shown the for a straight by Mobassery.

Warren Colman: / /
Frankie O'Dell: / /

In the next hand, Colman was all in on third and O'Dell looked him up. O'Dell ended up with just a pair of jacks, but Colman couldn't connect at all to bust out in 23rd place for $2,982.

"Some Guys Play Great, Some Guys Catch Great"

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Chris Ferguson: /
Julien Martini: /

We arrived for a betting round on sixth street where Chris Ferguson bet and Julien Martini called. Martini checked to Ferguson on the river and Ferguson fired again. Martini called.

Ferguson said he had a straight and shoved the to prove it. Martini's hand couldn't compete.

"Some guys play great, some guys catch great," Maxwell Troy, who is sitting on the table, said. "I'm not saying who is who, but..."

Ferguson laughed and said that he agreed.

Then Katherine Flecke joined the debate, saying that she'd rather be lucky and win than play great. Naturally, the table agreed with her.

George Alexander busted shortly after the redraw. He was sweating his river card with the other six face up.

George Alexander: /
Maxwell Troy:

Campbell With Miracle Double

[user38873]

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Alan Myerson and Ronnie Brown have been eliminated and Robert Campbell may very well have been the next casualty to reduce the field further. However, he doubled in spectacular fashion and then doubled a second time. Both times, it was George Alexander that had to suffer.

Robert Campbell: / /
George Alexander: /

Two jacks were gone according to table chat by Scott Cole, and Robert Campbell instead got there with running eights to improve to a full house, while Alexander's straight on sixth was no good anymore. It was a pure one-outer for Campbell to remain in contention.

Robert Campbell: / /
George Alexander: / /

Campbell was then all in after he paired his eight on sixth, which caused plenty of laughter at the table. Alexander was pained and sighed, "I could be drawing dead already," before calling and showing his pair of sixes. Campbell had nines and eights, and Alexander bricked off on seventh to allow Campbell to double once more.

Friedman, Yu and Ramos Eliminated

[user38873]

Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Adam Friedman: /
Frankie O'Dell: /

The first casualty in the money was Adam Friedman, who ended up all in and at risk with a set of deuces and Frankie O'Dell had fives in the hole and two pair with jacks on fifth. Instead of the better set, O'Dell got there with running diamonds to send Friedman to the rail.

Gabriel Ramos: / /
Ben Yu: / /
George Alexander: / /

Gabriel Ramos was all in for fewer than one big bet and Ben Yu completed, George Alexander stuck around and Yu's remaining few chips went in after fifth street. Yu's pocket jacks ended up second best to Alexander's kings and tens and Ramos picked up no help at all, ensuring a double knockout just after the money bubble had burst.

Siegel Doubles, Scott Bubbles

[user340093]

Nível 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Robert Campbell busted Danny Scott on the bubble

There were two all in situations at the same time but the timeline was somewhat chaotic with one all in ran without halting the action while the other table waited for other tables to finish their hand in progress.

So the first all in ran with Jordan Siegel completing with a ten out and Chris Ferguson raised. Siegel called for his remaining 800 and he found himself trailing.

Siegel: /
Ferguson: /

Siegel started with a no-pair but the dealer kept shipping him aces and tens so he made tens full of aces in a quick fashion. Siegel was then rewarded the last ten in the deck to even improve into quads, but it didn't matter all that much as he'd already locked up the double.

Then a big hand between Dzmitry Urbanovich and Julien Martini emerged with Urbanovich raising pre and Martini calling. Urbanovich paired his jack on fourth and kept his aggression for the next two streets but Martini took over on sixth and fired himself with a queen-high board. Urbanovich called but folded to a river bet.

There was all in and a call situation on Table 414 with Danny Scott and Robert Campbell on fifth street with their cards face up. They waited for Urbanovich to fold his hand to get the green light for the rest of the runout.

Scott:
Campbell:

Scott was behind with two pair and he couldn't improve with and . He was eliminated in 48th place and left the tournament without a payout slip while the rest of the field was guaranteed some return on their investment.
