Minkin Busts Glazier

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Kelly Minkin - Jackie Glazier
Kelly Minkin - Jackie Glazier

Kelly Minkin's hot run in the Main Event seems to continue, as the ESPN floor and Alexander Lynskey confirmed she had sent Jackie Glazier to the rail. Earlier today, Minkin had tweeted about getting up to a million in chips and she now has even more than that.

According to Lynskey, a three-way flop of {J-}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop was check-raised by Minkin in the big blind and she called the under-the-gun shove of Glazier with {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. The Aussie was ahead until that point with {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for top pair and inferior flush draw, and the {6-Hearts} turn instantly left Glazier drawing dead.

Scott Davies, who has made the trip to Australia a few times already, remains on the table, while Elizabeth Montizanti was moved next to Minkin.

Chen Makes the Steel Wheel to Double Through Alaei

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Daniel Alaei raised from the button and Rotem Chen moved all in for 121,000 from the small blind. Paul Volpe folded his big blind and Alaei quickly called.

Rotem Chen: {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Daniel Alaei: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The dealer fanned the {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop and it was a monster flop for Chen who picked up a straight flush draw. Alaei picked up an open ended straight draw on the {q-Diamonds} turn and the {2-Clubs} completed the board.

Chen improved to a straight flush on the river to double through Alaei.

Barry Hutter Surges into the Chip Lead

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Barry Hutter
Barry Hutter

Following a hijack raise to 18,000, and a call in the cutoff, Barry Hutter three-bet to 65,000 from the button. The initial raiser folded, but the cutoff called as the flop landed {Q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

Hutter continued for 50,000, and his opponent check-called as the {4-Spades} rolled off on the turn. Hutter's opponent checked again, and Hutter bet out 125,000 with his opponent again making the call.

The river landed the {K-Hearts}, and after a third check from Hutter's opponent, Hutter announced he was all in for over 2.2 million.

Hutter's opponent snap-called for his 350,000 and tossed in a handful of chips and revealed his {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for trips.

Hutter revealed his {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} for a rivered full house to eliminate his opponent and soar to over 3.1 million in chips.

Gerrits Doubles Through Pasquale

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

With already more than 100,000 in the middle, Martijn Gerrits (button) was active in a hand against Frank Pasquale, who was in the big blind. Pasquale checked the {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} turn to Gerrits, who bet 100,000.

Pasquale rose from his chair, took a good look, then announced all in. Gerrits instantly called it off for 304,000 total.

Martijn Gerrits: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Frank Pasquale: {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Gerrits was ahead with his set but needed to dodge flush and straight draws from Pasquale. The {4-Clubs} on the river paired the board and Gerrits doubled up with a full house.
