Seven Card Stud

Carol Fuchs: XxXx/Q♦9♥J♠10♠
Phil Hui: XxXx/K♥2♣10♣4♦

Phil Hui bet on fourth and fifth streets, with Carol Fuchs calling to sixth.

Fuchs now moved all in on sixth and Hui called, turning over A♠A♥. Fuchs, though, had K♣Q♣ for the straight and Hui was already drawing dead.

Hui pointed out that Fuchs, with 27,000 in her stack, had to leave 3,000 behind so she wasn't yet all in and he mucked his cards.

Stud Hi-Lo

Matthew Schreiber was all in by fifth street and up against Connor Drinan.

Schreiber had A♣A♠Q♦7♥6♠5♠ heading to seventh when he peeled the 10♦. "I have complete air," he told Drinan.

Drinan made A♦J♦J♠9♠4♥3♠2♠ and thought he won the hand. "I forgot he had aces," he eventually said as he mucked, handing over a double up to Schreiber.

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo

Carol Fuchs: 5♦5♠/5♥9♣2♣9♠/8♠
Phil Hellmuth: XxXx/A♦K♣A♠3♣/Xx
Wil Wilkinson: XxXx/3♥A♥10♣ - folded fifth street

Carol Fuchs completed Wil Wilkinsion's bring-in and got a call from Phil Hellmuth as well as a defense from Wilkinson.

With the betting lead on fourth street, Hellmuth bet and got two calls.

Pairing his door card ace on fifth, Hellmuth bet again which got a fold from Wilkinson, but a call from Fuchs.

Hellmuth bet sixth and got another call, then checked seventh street and faced a bet from Fuchs.

Hellmuth made the call and Fuchs turned over a full house of fives full of nines. Hellmuth stood up and rifled through his cards, frustrated that he was sending the pot across the table as he suggested that he had aces up but no low.

Limit Hold 'em

After Brian Yoon raised in the hijack and got three-bet by Alex Livingston in the cutoff, Andrew Barber went into the tank with 12,000 of his remaining 19,000 chips in on the big blind.

Barber waited a couple of minutes before making a decision to see if any other players were all in as well. Word got to him that Phil Hellmuth was all in during a pot in Stud Hi-Lo, but that the outcome would be a chop.

After receiving that news, Barber committed his final chips.

The flop came 4♦K♠Q♣ and after a check from Yoon, Livingston bet and Yoon folded. Barber would need some help to survive.

Andrew Barber: 10♠10♣
Alex Livingston: A♠Q♦

Livingston had outflopped Barber's tens, and after the 7♣7♥ runout, Barber became the bubble boy putting the final 28 players into the money with a min-cash of $16,354 in their pockets.

The first to collect that sum was Jerry Wong who was eliminated in the first hand after the bubble burst.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Three-handed on a flop of J♥2♠2♣, Mike Gorodinsky bet from the cutoff and Matthew Schreiber called in the small blind before Connor Drinan raised.

Gorodinsky called and Schreiber folded. Both players checked the 10♦ turn and the 6♠ fell on the river.

Drinan led out with a bet and Gorodinsky quickly called. Gorodinsky showed A♥A♦Q♦2♥ for trip deuces to win the pot as Schreiber said he folded tens and would've hit a full house on the turn.

Omaha Hi-Lo

The second post-bubble bustout is Chino Rheem, who battled back from a single chip to sneak into the money and cash for $16,354.

Rheem raised the button and got a call from Alex Livingston in the big blind.

On the A♣J♦2♥ flop, Livingston check-called a bet from Rheem. The turn brought the K♣ and after another check from Livingston and bet from Rheem, Livingston check-raised. Rheem called, leaving himself 8,000 behind.

The 10♠ fell on the river, and after Livingston bet Rheem's last 8,000, Rheem called it off to see Livingston's K♠K♥4♥2♦ for a set of kings. This was more than enough to send Rheem to the rail as he sent his cards back to the dealer and wished his now former tablemates luck.
