Abady Doubles Through Burns

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On a {3-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} river, and with 71,500 in the middle already, Joshua Abady moved all in for 38,700 and Kahle Burns was contemplating his decision.

"You don't play Aces this way," Burns said aloud. He eventually called and was shown {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush.

"I had a king," said Burns, and was forced to show {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. "I wish you had 25,000 more then I could have folded."

O'Neill Gets There

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Jack O'Neill raised to 2,800 in early position and received calls from "Cowboy" Glenn Cymbaluk and Jack Salter. The flop was {J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and O'Neill continued with a bet of 4,600. Both Cymbaluk and Salter stuck around to see a turn.

The dealer burned and turned the {10-Diamonds} and O'Neill came up with a second bet of 17,000. Cymbaluk wasn't backing down yet and called quickly, while Salter got out of the way.

On the {K-Hearts} river, O'Neill emptied the clip with a bet of 27,100. It was for half of Cymbaluk's remaining stack, who called it off after twenty seconds.

O'Neil showed {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} for the rivered Broadway and Cymbaluk slid his hand in the muck. Directly after the hand, Benny Glaser sat down in the empty seat directly to O'Neill's left.

"I Know Your Range, Daniel"

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Daniel Neilson
Daniel Neilson

Daniel Neilson bet 8,500 from the small blind on a board of {3-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Ken Demlakian called. On the {q-Diamonds} turn, Neilson checked and Demlakian checked back. The river was a {4-Spades} and Neilson bet 28,000.

"Probably six-seven of spades," Demlakian wondered aloud after some thought. "I know your range, Daniel."

He sent his cards to the muck and gave up the pot.

Grammer Busts Glasspool

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Marc Foggin is no longer in contention and table neighbor Robert Glasspool was also sent to the rail, which saw Lee Armstrong getting moved to the vacant seat.

Ross Grammer had raised to 2,800 from the button and Glasspool three-bet to 10,000 in the big blind. Grammer moved all in and received a snap-call by Glasspool for 54,000 effectively.

Robert Glasspool: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Ross Grammer: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

The {A-Spades} appeared right in the window to leave Glasspool with just one out, and the rest of the board came {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{2-Spades}.

Treccarichi Pays Clarke

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Walter Treccarichi bet 5,900 in the cutoff on {6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades}{q-Spades} only to have small blind James Clarke make it 16,500 to go. Treccarichi called and the river was a {q-Clubs}. Clarke fired 25,000 and Treccarichi tanked awhile before calling for most of his remaining chips.

Clarke showed {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for threes full.

Toby Joyce
Toby Joyce

Justin Stein and Helen Capp vanished from the feature table. The former had been replaced by Max Silver, who then won a flip with {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} against the pocket fives of Capp.

Ludovic Geilich sent a short stack to the rail with {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} versus {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs} after improving to a full house on the board of {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{K-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

Last but not least, Toby Joyce walked out of the tournament area and has been eliminated as well.

Payneful Exit for Evans

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A raise by Brian Payne in the cutoff brought the three-bet shove of Mark Evans out of the small blind for 22,000 and Payne called to see both players turn over pocket pairs.

Mark Evans: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Brian Payne: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{J-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs} to give Payne a full house and a disappointed Evans quickly grabbed his belongings.

Small Pot for Spindler

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The last level had not been as kind to Benny Spindler and on top of that he has been moved to the table of chip leader Frank Pezzaniti. The latter opened to 3,600 and Spindler defended the big blind. Both checked the {K-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and a bet of 5,000 by Spindler on the {2-Spades} turn won the pot.

Stevan Chew has been spotted near the bar having a drink with Dietrich Fast and Sam Panzica, and has been eliminated as well.
