Himmelbrand Barrels Liberto Out; Yun Busted

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Justin Liberto
Justin Liberto

Justin Liberto opened to 16,000 under the gun and got a call from cutoff Vinod Moorjani. Greg Himmelbrand popped it to 48,000 from the blinds, and Liberto and Moorjani both called. The flop brought {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and a continuation-bet of 50,000. Only Liberto called, and a {2-Clubs} hit the turn.

"How much are you playing?" Himmelbrand asked. It looked to be 165,000, and Himmelbrand bet 110,000. Liberto quickly folded.

Eugene Yun went bust at the same table a bit ago.

Jacobini Eliminates Zuniga

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Michael Zuniga
Michael Zuniga

Christian Harder opened for 17,000 on the button, and Michael Zuniga called in the small blind. Billy Jacobini made it 49,000 from the big blind, and Harder folded. Zuniga decided to go with his hand though, putting in his last 45,000 or so.

Zuniga: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Jacobini: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The dealer spread a flop of {8-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, causing Jacobini to groan. The turn and river were both aces though, and he took it with aces full of queens.

Bergen Eliminated

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
James Bergen
James Bergen

Billy Jacobini opened to 15,000 then called off when James Bergen jammed it in from the small blind, covering Jacobini's 99,000.

Jacobini: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Bergen: {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Bergen took the lead as {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flopped, but he didn't want two pair. The {6-Spades} was a safe turn, but he got two pair on the {q-Diamonds} river, giving Jacobini the winning straight. Bergen was left with just 14,000 and busted the next hand.

Adam Friedman
Adam Friedman

Adam Friedman shoved all in for 41,000 under the gun, and Christian Harder called in middle position.

"What do I have to beat?" Friedman asked.

"You might have the best hand," Harder said.

Friedman: {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Harder: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Friedman was way behind though, and Harder flopped a queen to put an end to things.

At another table, Matt Alexander lost his remaining stack. He said he lost with {a-}{k-} against Dennis Summers' {a-}{q-}.

Players are on break for 15 minutes.
