Harrington Rebounding on Second Bullet

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 200 ante

On a flop of {5-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} with 4,800 in the middle, Brent Harrington led out from the small blind for 2,300 and his lone opponent in the hand called.

The turn fell the {10-Hearts} and Harrington tossed in 6,000 with his opponent quickly folding.

Harrington was pushed the pot to move to roughly 31,000 after only recently re-entering.

Kings for Huot

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Following a limp under the gun, Alex Huot raised in the cutoff to 2,000 and Nadya Magnus called in the big blind, as did the original limper.

The flop of {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{A-Spades} was checked round before the limper bet out 3,500 when the turn landed the {Q-Clubs}. Huot called as Magnus folded before the dealer dropped the {J-Hearts} on the river.

Huot would be faced with a bet of 5,000 from his opponent, and he would call tabling his {K-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} to best his opponent's {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

Knellinger Wins a Race

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Two players limped in, and John Knellinger shoved for about 11,000 from the small blind. An opponent with around 9,500 who open-limped in middle position called it off, and the other player folded.

Knellinger: {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}

The race was on and Knellinger took a lead on the {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop. The {3-Spades} turn and {2-Diamonds} river kept his jacks best.

Harrington Busts, Re-Enters

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Brent Harrington
Brent Harrington

After doubling an opponent up a few hands earlier, Brent Harrington committed his final 1,100 from the cutoff with the big blind coming along.

Harrington: {A-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Harrington hit the rail and headed out of the tournament room.

Just a minute later Harrington would return and walk towards the PokerNews blogging desk and state, "Well I considered it for about 2 seconds. What else am I supposed to do?"

Harrington is now back in the Tuesday Takeoff with a fresh 16,000-starting stack.

Evan Wolfson bet 1,600 in a battle of the blinds after the small blind checked to him on an {8-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop. The small blind jammed all in for 11,100 more, and Wolfson thought about a minute before splashing in a call.

Wolfson: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Small blind: {j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

Wolfson was fading nines and jacks, and the {a-Diamonds} and {4-Diamonds} were safe for him on the last two streets.

Top Two for Dowhower

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Following early position limps from Noel Edwards and Camden Dowhower, David Spurr raised to 1,700.

Both Edwards and Dowhower called as the flop fell {J-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. Edwards open-shoved his last 4,700 and Dowhower moved all in also as Spurr swiftly folded.

Edwards: {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Dowhower: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

The turn and river ran out the {4-Hearts} and {9-Hearts} and Edwards headed to the rail.
