Ryan Doubles

Kyle Ryan got himself all in for his last 80,000 on the turn of a board showing {4-Spades} {J-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}, battling with Matt Keikoan.

Ryan was in good shape with one card to come, turning over {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} to Keikoan's {Q-Spades} {9-Spades}. The river was safe for him as well, the {5-Clubs}, and that marks a much needed double up for the short stack.

Ryan is up at the 700,000-chip mark now.

Sad Pumpkin

Jameson Painter opened for a raise, Dan Idema reraised and Painter called.

Idema led out on the {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop and Painter called. Idema bet out again on the {6-Hearts} turn and Painter called. Same story when the {Q-Clubs} hit the river.

Idema showed ace-queen for queens and sixes and took it down, much to the chagrin of the "pumpkin patch."

On the {7-Spades} {10-Clubs} {5-Clubs} flop, Idema check-raised to two bets, and Painter came along with the call. Painter called one more big bet on the {8-Hearts} turn, but he folded to the last one when the {5-Spades} did not help his hand.

Painter is now on the short stack with 610,000.

Ray Back on the Short Stack

Kyle Ray opened for a raise, Dan Idema reraised and Ray called.

In a flurry of betting on the {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop, Ray checked, Idema bet, Ray raised, Idema reraised and Ray called. Ray check-called Idema's bet when the {K-Diamonds} hit the turn. The river was the {J-Hearts} and Ray checked again. Idema bet and Ray sat up on his knees, hovering over the table with his hands covering his face. After a few moments, he let go of his hand and Idema took down the pot.

Ray is down to 400,000 in chips.
