Doug Carli 13th Place
Doug Carli 13th Place

Doug "Rico" Carli has been grinding a short stack since midway through Day 2 and his time finally ran out. Carli moved all in preflop and action passed to Chris Thompson in the small blind. Thompson called and the hands were tabled.

Carli: {4-Clubs} {2-Spades}
Thompson: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}

The board ran {3-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} {10-Hearts} and Carli's impressive short-stacked deep run came to an end.

Slow Going

It's been pretty quite as of late; in fact, the most recent hand of any note happened when Dustin Gardner opened for 50,000 from the hijack only to have Houston White three-bet to 140,000 from the big blind. Gardner made the call, but then folded to White's bet of 152,000 on the {Q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop.

Bazeley Gets Lucky to Take Over Chip Lead

Action folded to Houston White in the cutoff and he brought it in for a raise to 35,000. Jacob Bazeley was next to act on the button and he three-bet to 110,000. The blinds got out of the way and White pushed back with a four-bet, making it 200,000 more to go. Bazeley pondered for a bit before announcing all in for about 650,000 more. White made the call, and at first, he was glad he did.

Showdown

Bazeley{A-Hearts}{9-Spades}
White{A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

White was primed to take down a monster pot, but the {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{A-Clubs} flop had other plans as it delivered Bazeley two pair. White stood from his chair in disbelief and watched helplessly as the {3-Hearts} fell on the turn followed by the {Q-Diamonds} river. Bazeley remained stoic as he raked in the nearly 2-million chip pot.

Michael "Carwash" Schneider Eliminated in 16th Place ($9,734)

Action folded to the short-stacked Michael "Carwash" Schneider in the cutoff and he moved all in for 101,000. Frank Mull was next to act on the button and made the call, while both blinds got out of the way.

Showdown

Mull{Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Carwash{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

It was a classic flip, but things looked as if they'd come down in Carwash's favor as neither the {3-Spades}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop nor {4-Hearts} turn helped Mull. However, there was still one card to come and wouldn't you know it, the {Q-Diamonds} spiked to give Mull the win. Carwash was eliminated from the Main Event in 16th place.
