Reard Continues To Climb

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Alexandre Reard was involved in a bigger three-way pot in which he raised and called a three-bet along with one further player. The flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} was checked and Reard bet the {Q-Diamonds} turn for 11,000, both opponents called.

After the {6-Hearts} river, Reard made it 19,000 to go. Only Vivek Rughani called, but mucked when he was shown the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} by Reard.

Schluter Shoves Over Eichhardt

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

There was 28,000 in the pot and Heinz Schluter was facing off against Peter Eichhardt. Eichhardt had position in the hand and Schluter checked over to him on a board of {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

Eichhardt put out a bet of 13,000. Schluter dropped into the tank and thought for about a minute before he made the decision to move all in for a bit over 50,000. Eichhardt quickly released his hand and Schluter took down the pot.

Guagenti Eliminated

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

After an open to 2,500 in middle position and a three-bet to 6,900 out of the hijack, Nick Guagenti shoved from the small blind for 29,900. The middle-position opener reshoved and folded out the third player.

Nick Guagenti: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Guagenti was smashed and things worsened on the {9-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop, with the {7-Spades} ending Guagenti's miniscule hopes on the turn.

McDonald Builds Stack

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Mike McDonald limped in from the small blind and Jonathan Ulrich raised it up to 3,500, McDonald called. Both checked the {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop and McDonald bet 4,000 on the {9-Clubs} turn, Ulrich called. On the {9-Spades} river, McDonald bet 6,000 and was called once more to flip over {7-Spades}{5-Spades} for nines and sevens. That was good enough to win the pot for the Canadian.

Player Missing on Table 239 Believed to Be Travis Lutes

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

There's an abandoned stack on Table 239 in Pavilion Green section. The players at the table informed us that it's believed that the stack belongs to Travis Lutes whose chips were moved to the table after the dinner break. Lutes hasn't appeared at the table ever since and he's missed almost a full level now with his stack being slowly blinded out. There's about 150,000 left.
