Nasty River Sends Diaz Out in 48th Place

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

After a player opened for 6,100 and another called on the button, David Diaz three-bet to 18,400 from the small blind. Zachary Korik then four-bet to 45,600 from the big, the original raiser and button folded, and Diaz moved all in for right around 80,000. Korik made a quick call and discovered he was in bad shape.

Diaz: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Korik: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Korik's best chance at eliminating his tough opponent was to catch an ace, but that didn't happen on the {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop. The {5-Clubs} turn meant Diaz just needed to dodge an ace on the river, but as you can tell from the title of this post, that didn't happen as the {A-Diamonds} spiked.

Diaz looked devastated as he made his way to the payout desk in 48th place while Korik added to his already massive stack.

Diaz Hits the Tank

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

David Diaz opened for 4,800 from middle position and Nick Guagenti called from the button. The blinds both folded and then the two checked the {a-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{8-Hearts} flop. When the {3-Diamonds} appeared on the turn, Diaz check-called a bet of 6,000 and then checked the {6-Spades} river.

Guagenti took the opportunity to bet 16,000, and Diaz tanked for three minutes before releasing his hand.

Big Double for Jarvis

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Matt Jarvis, who finished eighth in the 2010 WSOP Main Event for $1,045,743, received a big double just before his table broke.

It happened when a preflop raising war resulted in him getting his stack of 129,600 all in holding the {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} against the {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} of his opponent. The {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop was no help to Jarvis, but the {K-Clubs} turn was. The {2-Hearts} completed the board on the river and Jarvis was shipped the juicy double.

Hellmuth Continues to Build

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

After a player opened for 6,000 under the gun, Phil Hellmuth called from the small blind and the two saw a flop of {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Hellmuth bet 8,000 and his opponent called. Hellmuth then bet 13,000 and 17,000 on the {2-Spades} turn and {10-Clubs} river respectively, both of which his opponent called with the {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Hellmuth rolled over the {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a better two pair and the win.
