Playing Stud/8:
Short-stack Matt Stevens was all-in with side-pot action between Rolf Andersen and Lonnie Heimowitz. Rolf continued to check/call bets from Lonnie as the cards were delivered:
Matt Stevens:
Rolf Andersen:
Lonnie Heimowitz:
After the river card was delivered, Andersen again checked and Heimowitz bet his last 27,000, which Andersen called.
Stevens tabled and had missed both ways, ending up with just a pair of fives.
Heimowitz confidently tabled for the diamond flush, only to see the bad news when Andersen rolled over for the full house. He scooped it all, chipping up to 485,000 and a huge chip lead on the table.
Stevens was eliminated ninth for $0, while Heimowitz earned $663 for his eighth-place finish.
One more hand and it was finally break time. The remaining seven players are enjoying their first break of the day.
