Capps Takes King's Crown

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Brandon King
Brandon King

From under the gun, Brandon King raised all in. Play folded to Jesse Capps in the small blind, and he reraised all in. Everyone else folded, and it was King's {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} dominated by the {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts} for Capps.

The flop, turn, and river ran out {A-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, and King was eliminated.

Somerville Sheds a Tear as he Hits the Rail

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Well, not really, but he gave us permission to dramatize the situation.

Jason Somerville was down to his final 15,500 chips when the action folded to him in the small blind. Somerville moved all in and Chad Gerry called from the big blind in an attempt to take out the host of the event.

Somerville: {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Chad Gerry: {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} and Somerville got up, wished the other players good luck before exiting the tournament. Somerville stuck around to support the other players left in the tournament, and he's probably exited for the next event at 8:00 p.m. tonight, the $85 All-in or Fold.

Casey's Run Ends

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Bill Casey was sitting on a lot of chips earlier in this event, but the cards ran dry and just now we caught the elimination of the player who's been on Jason Somerville's left all day.

On his final hand Casey was all in with {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for just a few big blinds and up against the {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} of his opponent.

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Casey hit the rail.

Lucky Six for Rajnoha

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Luke Rajnoha just ended up all in for his tournament life worth 26,600 chips and he was dominated by the pocket pair of his opponent.

Rajnoha: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}

The board ran out {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Rajnoha hit a set on the turn to get himself a double up. Rajnoha's opponent was left with just a few chips and he'll be all in shortly with the blinds and antes going up fast.
