MacPhee Falls to Quad Eights

Level 19 : 1,700/3,400, 340 ante
Kevin MacPhee
Kevin MacPhee

Brian "pure_reason" Wood raised to 6,800 from under the gun and Kevin "ImaLuckSac" MacPhee three-bet jammed for 21,198 from the late position.

Action folded around to "Syracuseball" who came over the top for 51,821 from the big blind and Wood called putting both players at risk.

"Syracuseball": {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Brian "pure_reason" Wood: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Kevin "ImaLuckSac" MacPhee: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

MacPhee was ahead until the {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{9-Spades} flop appeared giving "Syracuseball" quad eights.

The {k-Hearts} turn left MacPhee drawing dead and he hit the rail after the {q-Clubs} completed the board on the river.

Raymer Flushed by Calenzo

Level 20 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante
Greg Raymer
Greg Raymer

Kevin "SpecialK333" Calenzo raised from the hijack and then called Greg "FossilMan" Raymer's 66,330 three-bet jam from the small blind.

Greg "FossilMan" Raymer: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Kevin "SpecialK333" Calenzo: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Raymer was dominated and he didn't like the {10-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop that took away one of his outs.

The {2-Spades} turn didn't change a thing as Raymer needed a non diamond six to stay alive.

Unfortunately for Raymer, the {7-Diamonds} river completed Calenzo's flush and eliminated him from the tournament.

Six-Time Ring Winner Bubbles

Level 21 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Maxwell Young
Maxwell Young

Action folded to Max "Mawkswell" Young who raised to 13,434 from late position and Upeshka "gomezhamburg" De Silva three-bet to 38,880 from the button.

Action folded back around to Young who jammed for 234,068 and De Silva snap-called.

Max "Mawkswell" Young: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Upeshka "gomezhamburg" De Silva: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Young was behind and nothing changed after the {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop.

The {6-Diamonds} turn gave Young more outs with the nut flush draw as any diamond or ace would win him the hand.

Unfortunately for Young, a third king fell on the river {k-Clubs} improving De Silva's hand to a full house and the six-time ring winner exited the tournament on the money bubble.

Joe McKeehen
Joe McKeehen

Joe "fanofdapoker" McKeehen, who two weeks ago won Event #14: $3,200 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller for $352,985 (the biggest first-place prize of the 2020 WSOP Online series on WSOP.com), moved all in for 35,600 under the gun and "uosdwiSj3woH" three-bet jammed over the top for 193,594 from the cutoff. The rest of the players got out of the way and the 2015 WSOP Main Event champ discovered the bad news.

Joe "fanofdapoker" McKeehen: {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
"uosdwiSj3woH": {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} to give both players a straight, but McKeehen's was second best to send him out the door in 215th place for $1,817.73.

Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter Bows Out in 37th Place

Level 32 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Jamie Kerstetter
Jamie Kerstetter

Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter was on the shorter side of things with approximately 240,000 when she raised most of it, leaving herself about 25,000 back. An opponent three-bet to 450,000 next to act, and action folded back to Kerstetter, who called off.

Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter: {a-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Opponent: {10-}{10-}

Kerstetter was behind but did flop a wheel draw. A third club appeared on the board on the turn to give her a flush draw, but she missed as a red jack on the river proved useless.

Kerstetter was eliminated in 37th place for $6,463.04.

Ryan Laplante
Ryan Laplante

Action on the table folded around to Ryan "protential" Laplante who raised all in for 790,426 from the button and "Bubblealot" isolated from the small blind.

"Bubblealot": {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Ryan "protential" Laplante: {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Laplante was behind needing help and found some with the {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop but was still trailing after pairing his jack.

The {a-Clubs} turn didn't change a thing as Laplante needed a jack to win or a nine to chop but the {2-Clubs} river ended his tournament in 30th place for $7,876.53.
