Sinclair Wins a Flip and Eliminates Andreas Klatt

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

From the cutoff, Andreas Klatt opened to 3,600. He was called by one other player before Jack Sinclair raised from the small blind, making it 12,000 to go. Action folded back to Klatt and he moved all in for right around 50,000. The other player folded but Sinclair called quickly.

Sinclair: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Klatt: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

"You have the queen of hearts too," Sinclair said upon seeing the hand.

The flop was no good for Sinclair when it came {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} keeping Klatt well in the lead, and the turn was the {9-Spades}, putting Sinclair deeper in the hole. But it was the {A-Diamonds} on the river that vaulted Sinclair into the lead and allowed him to take down the nearly 100,000 chip pot and eliminated Klatt in the process.

Mateos Takes a Hit

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Adrian Mateos opened to 3,200 from middle position and he found a call from Scott Wilson in the small blind.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Wilson led out, betting 3,000. Mateos called.

Both players checked on the {7-Hearts} turn to see the {Q-Diamonds} on the river. There Wilson led out again, betting 7,500. Mateos put his fingers on the bridge of his nose and thought for a few seconds before eventually calling. Wilson turned up {A-Spades}{7-Clubs} and that earned him the pot as Mateos mucked, dropping him to just over 100,000 while Wilson chipped up to right around 130,000

Emory Takes From Ateba

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jean Ateba, Bryan Emory, and a third player piled up 40,000 in the middle when they went three-way to a {q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop. After two checks in front of him, Emory bet 14,700 getting looked up by Ateba.

Both players checked the {10-Diamonds} on the turn and {a-Clubs} on the river. Ateba was supposed to be the first to show but didn't appear to want to so Emory acknowledged, tabling the {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Ateba mucked.

"It's Not Too Often I Get It in Drawing Dead"

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Brian Altman raised to 3,500 under the gun and he picked up a caller. Simon Deadman came along from the big blind and three players saw a flop of {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}.

Deadman checked, Altman continued for 3,500, and the other player folded. Deadman woke up with an all-in check-raise to 14,400 and Altman made a reluctant call.

Altman: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Deadman: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

"It's not too often I get it in drawing dead," Altman joked.

Of course, Deadman's quad fours held, and the {8-Spades} turn and {2-Spades} river were run out as a formality.
