Lizzy Harrison Eliminated By Chris Hunichen

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

As relayed to us, Andy Hwang opened from UTG+1 to 16,000 and was called by Chris Hunichen in middle position and Lizzy Harrison on the button.

The flop fell {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and Hwang checked to Hunichen who bet 30,000. Harrison shoved for 107,000, Hwang folded, and Hunichen called with {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Harrison led with {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, but the {K-Spades} turn fell to give Hunichen Broadway. The {K-Clubs} river was no help to Harrison and she is eliminated.

Aces Jacked

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

After an all-in bet of 215,000 from a player on the button, Thomas Laviano looked him up with his {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}, but was dismayed to find see the button roll over {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}.

According to the PokerNews Poker Odds Calculator, the rockets were a 92% to 7% favorite over the dominated ace-high hand, and Laviano appeared resigned to his fate as he awaited the flop's verdict.

Flop: {J-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Poker can often be the cruelest of games, a fact the three cards above illustrate perfectly. Aces had been cracked in particularly brutal fashion, and when the turn and river blanked off, Laviano was lucky to push his stack over the 550,000 mark.

Randolph Langosa Goes Clubbing

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

With the flop reading {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Randolph Langosa called an all-in bet by an opponent seated to his right. When the hands were tabled, Langosa's {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} was drawing against the {4-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Turn: {7-Clubs}
River: {A-Hearts}

The turn delivered Langosa's flush, and his opponent could not fill up on the river, sending him to the rail early on this Day 3.

Carroll's Kings Cruise for the Double

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

A preflop raising war between Mike Carroll and an opponent in the small blind began when the circuit grinder raised, and responded to a three-bet by shipping for 137,000.

Turn: {7-Spades}
River: {Q-Spades}

No aces could be found, and with a spade in has hand to boot, Carroll eliminated the player and moved to just under 300,000 as Day 3 action continues.
