Sixth-Place Finisher

[user76079]
[user76079]
Markus Golser has finished in sixth place. Sitting on only 60,000 and 20,00 of that just went the big blind. Jimmy Shultz raised and Golser called before putting his last 20,000 in on the flop of...

{10-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {9-Spades}

Shultz made the call with {9-Clubs} {7-Clubs} and was ahead of Golser's {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} The turn and river blanked meaning we lose Golser after a valiant effort.

The price was 60,000 to go and Brendan Taylor and Markus Golser saw the flop come {5-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Golser check raised Taylor and Taylor slowly made the call. The river brought the {A-Clubs} and both players checked.

When the hands were it was Taylor's {J-Spades} {Q-Spades} that out kicked Golser's {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts}.

Golser is down to 50,000.
Taylor is at 760,000.

Vinny Short Now

[user76079]
Vinny just lost a a good part of his stack to Zac Fellows after reraising him preflop and betting out on a flop of...

{10-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}

Fellows raised it up to 40,000 that Vinh called before the turn came...

{9-Clubs}

Vinh decided to let it go though after facing a bet once he checked.

Shortly after he managed to steal the blinds before getting involved in a hand with Brendan Taylor and again laying it down on the turn after committing a lot of chips. He's down to just 65,000 now.

Four players saw the flop and Teddy 'Iceman' Monroe' was all in. The flop spread {8-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs} and all players checked. The turn was the {5-Spades} and Brendan Taylor bet out. Jimmy Schultz folded and Markus Golser called. The river was the {7-Clubs} and again Taylor bet and was called by Golser.

Taylor turned over {K-Spades} {7-Diamonds} for two pair.
Golser tabled {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for the flush and the side pot.
Monroe slammed down {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} for the nut flush and raked the main pot.

Monroe has 105,000

7th place for $41,441
7th place for $41,441
Ali Eslami lost the first pot back after play to leave him with just 70,000 chips. He was sitting in the big blind the next hand and was facing an early position raise from Jimmy Shultz. He made the call before we saw a flop...

{4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} He bet out 20,000 of his 30,000 very quickly and called the extra when Shultz put him all in.

Shultz flipped over {A-Clubs} {5-Hearts} which was ahead of Eslami's {9-Hearts} {5-Clubs} . The turn came...

{A-Diamonds} to seal the deal and eliminate Ali Eslami in 7th place.

[user76079]
[user76079]
In the last hand before the players go off for dinner break Jimmy Shultz raises to 30,000 from the button and Vinny Vinh defends his big blind by calling. The flop comes...

{2-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} Vinh check calls a 15,000 bet from Shultz before we head to the turn...

{3-Spades} Vinh check calls a 30,000 bet from Shultz this time before the river comes...
