Level 21
Loren Klein
Loren Klein

2-7 Triple Draw

On the second hand of the final table, Loren Klein opened with a late position raise and it folded to Scott Abrams who three-bet from the small blind. Klein called with 2,000 behind and both players drew one. Abrams bet out and Klein called.

Abrams stood pat on the second draw and Klein drew one. He took one once more during the third draw.

Abrams fanned {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for an eighty-six.

"I'm dead," said Klein, flashing that he was drawing to a nine.

Kelin was eliminated in 6th place and will take home $27,792 in prize money. Abrams now has about 535,000 in chips.

Klein Crippled

Level 21

2-7 Triple Draw

On the first hand of the final table, Brandon Wong raised, Sebastian Saffari three-bet from the cutoff, then Loren Klein four-bet from the button. It folded back to Wong who stepped aside, and Saffari called.

On the first draw, Saffari took one card and Klein stood pat. Saffari checked, Klein bet, Saffari raised, and Klein called. Both then stood pat on the final two draws and in both cases Saffari bet and Klein called.

Saffari turned over {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Klein mucked. Klein is now down to just over one big bet in the limit games.

Daniel Makowsky Eliminated in 7th Place ($20,065)

Level 21
Daniel Makowsky - 7th Place
Daniel Makowsky - 7th Place

2-7 Triple Draw

Daniel Makowsky opened with a raise from the button and Philip Sternheimer called from the big blind. Makowsky stood pat and Sternheimer took one card. Sternheimer checked and called a bet from Makowsky.

Sternheimer took one again while Makowsky stood pat. Sternheimer fired out a bet and Makowsky called for his last 8,000.

"I have the nuts," said Sternheimer immediately. He rolled over {7-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} and Makowsky simply flipped his cards over and tossed them into the muck.

With Makowsky's elimination, the field is down to the final table of six. Official chip counts will be posted momentarily.

An Eighty-Seven Serves Klein

Level 21

2-7 Triple Draw

Sebastian Saffari raised from the button and both Daniel Makowsky (small blind) and Loren Klein (big blind) called. All three players drew two cards on the first round, and when checked to Klein bet and the other two both called.

On the second draw Makowsky and Saffari were both taking two again, but this time Klein was standing pat. It was again checked to Klein who bet, and only Saffari stuck around. The third draw saw both players standing pat and checking.

Klein tabled {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Saffari mucked. Klein earns a needed boost while Makowsky is now the table's short stack.

Thomas Kettel Eliminated in 8th Place ($20,065)

Level 21
Thomas Kettel - 8th Place
Thomas Kettel - 8th Place

Limit Hold'em

Thomas Kettel battled with a short stack for much of Level 21, but finally lost the last of his chips to Daniel Makowsky in a limit hold'em hand.

We arrived as the final cards were being dealt, with Kettel already all in with {Q-Spades}{J-Spades} and Makowsky holding {A-Spades}{6-Hearts}. The board ended up {7-Spades}{K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades}, the river card making a flush for Kettel but completing a full house for Makowsky.

The last seven players are now redrawing to be seated around the not-quite-final final table.
