Start-of-the-Day Chip Leader Done and Dusted

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
John Reading
John Reading

John Reading began Day 2 as the chip leader but nothing seemed to go right for him today.

In the last hand before the break, the WSOP bracelet winner got his last 130,000 all in preflop and was in dire straits against MSPT Season 7 Canterbury Park champ Jonathan Kim.

John Reading: {10-}{10-}
Jonathan Kim: {a-}{a-}

Reading wound up turning an open-ended straight draw but he missed when the river bricked to send him home in 65th place for $2,329.

David McConachie Wins Flip to Score Double Elimination

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Barb Blechinger open-jammed under the gun and David McConachie came over the top next to act. Action was on Shaun Decker who called holding less than McConachie but more then Belchinger and the three players tabled their hands.

David McConachie: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Shaun Decker: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Barb Blechinger: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Both Decker and Blechinger held made hands but McConachie took the lead after the {10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop.

The {8-Spades} turn didn't Decker nor Blechinger and they were eliminated after the {2-Diamonds} river completed the board.

Tens Hold for Joachim; Eliminates MSPT Champ Gibson

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
James Gibson
James Gibson

James Gibson open-jammed under the gun for roughly 25,000 and John Joachim came over the top from the hijack getting isolation.

James Gibson: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
John Joachim: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Gibson held an over but didn't find one of his three outs on the {q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Spades} flop.

The {k-Spades} turn however, added outs to Gibson's hand as he picked up staright and flushes draws heading to the river.

Unfortunately, the {k-Diamonds} river wasn't the card Bibson wanted and the former MSPT Champion took his exit.

Another Aces Vs King Cooler Sends Revniaga Home After Bubble

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Vlad Revniaga
Vlad Revniaga

Rob Wazwaz opened for 18,000 from late position and Vlad Revniaga three-bet all in for roughly 160,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back around to Wazwaz who called.

Vlad Revniaga: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Rob Wazwaz: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

Revniaga needed a king to stay alive but couldn't find one with the {6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} runout.

It was a cooler hand on the bubble but fortunately for Revniaga, there was another player eliminated on the same hand with fewer chips and he was able to snag a min-cash.

Zupancich Bubbles the MSPT Season 10 Finale

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Brian Zupancich
Brian Zupancich

Action folded to Brian Zupancich in the small blind and he moved all in for 53,000. Steve Webb was in the big, looked down at his hand, and made a quick call.

Brian Zupancich: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Steve Webb: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Zupancich was flipping for his tournament life and needed to improve to stay alive. Unfortunately for him, that proved easier said than done as the board ran out a lowly {3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} to allow Webb's fishhooks to hold.

Zupancich left empty-handed in 82nd place while the remaining players were guaranteed a minimum payday of $2,174.

A Bad Beat Bailout

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Steve Webb had opened with a raise from early position and Derek McMaster, who this past summer won a WSOP gold bracelet, three-bet all in for 88,500 from the small blind. Webb called and the hands were turned up.

Steve Webb: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Derek McMaster: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop gave Webb a set and it looked as if McMaster would be the bubble boy. However, the {8-Clubs} turn gave him some added straight outs, and the {k-Diamonds} river completed the said straight to give McMaster new life.
