Hosbach Wins a Monster

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Scott Hosbach
Scott Hosbach

We've seen Scott Hosbach hold a chip lead here several times before (he even won a tournament at the Seneca Summer Slam in July). He's back on top again after winning a massive four-way all in at Table 2 moments ago.

Hosbach had the best of it preflop with the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} and he had to fade {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and Jason Nablo's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. Nablo had the best shot to come from behind with his three outs, but the {K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board improved Hosbach to a set of kings. He's now sitting behind a tower of 200,000 in chips.

Knight's Tale

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On his way out of the room, Josh Knight told us about his demise here in Level 9. With a raise to 3,000 and a call in front, Knight shoved with the {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} and he found a caller in Ray Book who held the {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. The inferior hand came from behind, sending Knight to the rail.

Defending Champ Exits

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Rick Block, who won this event last year, just busted his third bullet of the day and is heading home. Block told us that he had the {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and flopped top two pair on an {8-}{5-}{4-} flop. An opponent led out on the flop with pocket tens, Block shoved and his opponent called. But a {4-} on the turn left Block drawing thin and he was unable to full up on the river.
