Yu Eliminates Peters

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Ben Yu
Ben Yu

David Peters in the cutoff found himself all in and at risk against Ben Yu in the big blind.

David Peters: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Ben Yu: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Peters was behind but did have two live cards. He fell far behind on the {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{k-Spades} flop though the {j-Spades} turn, while improving Yu to the nut flush, did leave Peters drawing live to kings and jacks. He was unable to improve, however, on the {9-Spades} river, sending him to the rail.

Shortly after the conclusion of the hand, Peters was spotted in the late registration line, suggesting he has opted to re-enter the tournament.

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Upeshka De Silva and Maria Konnikova

Upeshka De Silva opened to 2,400 from middle position and was called by the big blind.

The big blind led out for 2,400 on the {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{a-Spades} flop and De Silva called.

Both players checked through the {q-Spades} turn to the {8-Hearts} river where the big blind once again checked. De Silva fired off 15,000 and the big blind snapped it off but mucked when De Silva turned over {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for the rivered two pair.

Don't Ask, Don't Hit

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Will Kassouf
Will Kassouf

Will Kassouf moved all in for his last 4,800 from early position and was called by a player in the small blind.

Will Kassouf: {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Small Blind Player: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Kassouf was in rough shape, likely needing to hit a jack to survive. No help came on the {8-Spades}{k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop or {5-Hearts} turn, leaving Kassouf calling for a jack on the river. He got what he asked for after the {j-Spades} founds it way onto the felt, handing Kassouf a full double. "You don't ask, you don't hit" he said as he stacked his newly acquired chips.
