Greg Mueller Crippled

Greg Mueller raised from late position, Marco Johnson three-bet from the button, and Mueller called. The flop was {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Mueller bet and Johnson called. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and both players checked. The river was the {6-Clubs}. Mueller bet and Johnson called. Mueller showed {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} but Johnson had {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and took the pot.

Mueller was down to only 12,000 after the hand.

Tommy Rounds Eliminated in 21st Place ($7,761)

Tommy Rounds raised pre-flop and got a call from Vivek Rajkumar. The flop was {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Rounds bet out, Rajkumar raised, and Rounds called. The turn was the {10-Clubs}. Rounds checked, Rajkumar bet, Rounds raised all in, and Rajkumar called. Rounds showed {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a set, but the turn had made Rajkumar's flush with the {J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The {7-Clubs} on the river didn't pair the board for Rounds and he was eliminated.

Aces and Kings

Chad Brown and Greg "FBT" Mueller tangled in a rather large pot, Brown holding K-K and Mueller holding A-A. Brown hit his set on the K-T-4 flop, but Mueller rivered an ace for the re-suck and scooped the pot.

Shortly thereafter they hooked up again, only this time Mueller had the pocket kings and Brown held A-T. Brown flopped an ace and rivered another one to take most of the chips back that he'd lost in the first hand.

Phil Hellmuth Eliminated in 25th Place ($7,761)

Phil Hellmuth limped in for 4,000, Serena Liu raised to 8,000, Hellmuth re-raised for his last 9,000 and Liu called the remaining 1K. Liu turned over {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Hellmuth tabled {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop brought a set for Liu, and Hellmuth began to rant about how "there's no skill in this game." The turn was the {A-Hearts}, the river was the {5-Hearts}, and Hellmuth's run at a 12th bracelet ended . . . at least until the next tournament.
