Bailey Takes a Bite Out of Godavarthy

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

In a three-bet pot, Srini Godavarthy bet 600,000 from the big blind on a {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop. Wood Bailey called in the cutoff, bringing the {a-Spades} on the turn.

Both players checked, and the river came {2-Spades}. Godavarthy bet 500,000, and Wood raised all in for his last 2,100,000.

A clearly frustrated Godavarthy showed pocket kings as he mucked, and Wood showed the {8-Clubs} as he raked in the pot.

Zimmer Doubles Up

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Srini Godavarthy opened to 125,000 under the gun, Mike Zimmer went all in from the big blind, and Godavarthy called.

Mike Zimmer: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Srini Godavarthy: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Board: {2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}

The flop looked good for Godavarthy, who flopped a flush draw to go along with his two overcards. The turn and river didn't improve his fortunes, however, and Zimmer survives to play on.

Terry Wheeler Eliminated in 8th Place ($17,600)

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Terry Wheeler
Terry Wheeler

Srini Godavarthy opened from the hijack, and Terry Wheeler three-bet all in from the cutoff, getting called by Godavarthy.

Terry Wheeler: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Srini Godavarthy: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

Board: {4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The king came in on the flop for Godavarthy, but he still had a bit of a sweat when an open-ended straight draw and flush draw came in on the turn. The pair held up, however, and the tournament is down to seven players.
