Adam Hussen Eliminated in 4th Place ($7,400)

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Adam Hussen
Adam Hussen

Samuel Roussy-Majeau opened to 75,000 on the button and called a three-bet jam from Adam Hussen in the small blind.

Roussy-Majeau: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Hussen: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Hussen was dominated but found a six on the {k-Spades}{6-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop. The turn, however, was the {q-Clubs} which completed a broadway straight for Roussy-Majeau and the river {6-Diamonds} was just an unnecessary needle before Hussen left the table.

Hussen picked up $7,400 for his fourth place finish.

Adam Podstawka

When action folded around to Adam Podstawka in the small blind, he open-jammed all-in and Matthew Wilkins quickly called from the big blind, putting Podstawka at risk.

Podstawka: {10-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Wilkins: {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

The dealer fanned out a {j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and though Podstawka picked up a ton of more outs on the flop, he couldn't connect and was eliminated in 6th place.

[Removed:263] Eliminated in 7th Place ($3,150)

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

[Removed:263] open-jammed all-in from the button and Samuel Roussy-Majeau made the call from the big blind to put Weese at risk.

Weese: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Roussy-Majeau: {10-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades}, giving Roussy-Majeau a flush and Weese was sent to the rail in 7th place.

Joseph Abou Khalil

Joseph Abou Khalil put himself at risk, moving all-in preflop and getting looked up by Adam Hussen.

Khalil: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}
Hussen: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Though Khalil picked up some additional outs on the {q-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop, the turn {8-Spades} and river {10-Diamonds} were not a card he needed and his day ended in eighth place.
