Delaney Crushing

Level 6 : 300/600, 50 ante

Ben Delaney has just soared into great position to progress through to the next stage after eliminating three opponents - two of which were in the same hand.

In the first hand, one player pushed his last 8,000 holding {Q-}{Q-} only to have Vladimir Geshkenbein commit his last 7,000 with {10-}{10-}.

Delaney made the call holding {A-}{J-}, and when an ace spiked on the turn, he sent two players to the rail while climbing to 51,000.

Just a few hands later, Delaney would open his button to 1,500 only to have Darren Kramer make it 4,400 from the big blind. Delaney pushed, Kramer called for roughly his last 23,000 and we were off to the races.

Kramer: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Delaney: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{6-Clubs} to end Kramer's tournament while sending Delaney soaring up to 73,000.
