Brunson Eliminated by Price

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Todd Brunson
Todd Brunson

All the money went in before the flop between Todd Brunson and Oliver Price with Brunson all in for right around 150,000.

Todd Brunson: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Oliver Price: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

There was no luck for Brunson when the flop fell {Q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, leaving him in a massive hole drawing to running jacks. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and that sealed the deal, rendering the {A-Spades} on the river meaningless. Brunson hit the rail while Price moved to a bit under 400,000 chips.

Dub for Kanit

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Mustapha Kanit shoved on the button for about 190,000 and the small blind reshipped to isolate. Matthew Smith tank-folded in the big blind.

Mustapha Kanit: {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Small blind: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The flip went to Kanit as the {2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Spades} board just missed the small blind.

Rheem Spikes River and Takes the Chip Lead

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Chino Rheem
Chino Rheem

Chino Rheem opened to 30,000 in middle position before his opponent three-bet to 79,000 from the cutoff.

The action folded back to Rheem, and he called and stated, "Action is on you, sir!"

The dealer spread a {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop, and with the action on the cutoff, he bet out 90,000 and responded, "Now the action is on you!"

Rheem paused, grabbed a stack of chips, and added, "Nope, it's back on you!"

Rheem had dropped in a stack of green 25,000-denomination chips amounting to a check-raise of roughly 600,000. His opponent immediately tossed in a few chips to signify he had called all in for 548,000.

Rheem: {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

The turn of the {5-Clubs} changed little but reduce Rheem's outs by one, but when the {9-Hearts} fell on the river, Rheem would eliminate his opponent and climb into the chip lead.
