Just Quads For Haddox

Neil Ryder was all in preflop for 44,000 with {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, and Randy Haddox made the call with {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}. The {j-Diamonds} was in the window, but it wouldn't stop there, as the flop ran down {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. The turn brought the {j-Spades}, giving Haddox quad jacks, and the meaningless river was the {9-Hearts}. Haddox collected the chips, and he is now sitting on 910,000.

Kaiser Eliminates Leandrou

Just before the last break, Ronny Kaiser raised from early position and then called when George Leandrou moved all in from the small blind for 68,000.

Showdown

Leandrou{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Kaiser{A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The {8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop kept Leandrou in the lead, but it gave Kaiser a flush draw to go with his overs. The {K-Spades} turn ended up pairing Kaiser's king, and after the {7-Hearts} was put out on the river, Leandrou was sent to the rail.

Funkhouser's Jacks Set Deeb Back

We caught up with the action on a board reading {3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}, where Shaun Deeb was in a heads-up pot against David Funkhouser.

Funkhouser checked from under the gun and Deeb fired 25,500 into the middle. Funkhouser made the call.

The {4-Hearts} completed the board and both players checked. Funkhouser tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for jacks and fours. Deeb nodded his head and mucked - conceding the pot to Funkhouser.

Deeb slipped, but is still in good shape with 570,000, however.
