Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Robert Peppe
Robert Peppe

There was all in action preflop between Robert Peppe and Andres Garcia with Peppe's stack at risk.

Robert Peppe: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Andres Garcia: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Peppe was racing for his tournament life and didn't recieve any help from the {9-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop.

The {10-Hearts} on the turn added outs to Peppe's hand drawing to broadway but he bricked the river as it fell the {2-Hearts} ending his Main Event run.

Golla's Power Play Extends His Chip Lead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Spencer Alexander checked a {6-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} board from the big blind, and Pratap Golla bet 120,000 into a pot of 180,000 from middle position. Alexander called.

Alexander checked again on the {2-Diamonds} river, and Golla announced a bet of 300,000.

"Power poker!" Alexander said. Alexander took stock of his remaining 450,000 in chips then went into the tank for a few minutes. Golla called for a clock after a few minutes.

"You look way too scared," Alexander told Golla a few seconds into the clock. Alexander then elected to fold.

Roth's Words of Wisdom

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Chris Roth
Chris Roth

The aftermath of a hand between Chris Roth and Jesse Bowman in a battle of the blinds saw Roth taking the last of Bowman's stack when his {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} bested Bowman's {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs} on a {3-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts} board. The chips all went in on the river, and Roth took the pot and knocked out Bowman with the flopped nut flush.

"Of course I led on the flop!" Roth said after the hand when some of his tablemates asked him about the hand. "Because if he calls, you know he's behind!"
