Soulier Quartered by Bhargava

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Fabrice Soulier called Sachin Bhargava's raise, and the two players in blinds saw the board run out {3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

Bhargava' line was straightforward; he went bet-bet-bet. Soulier called on all three streets, but his {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} was good only for a quarter of the pot.

Bhargava opened his {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}, chopping the low with Soulier and taking the high half of the pot with two pair, tens and threes.

Boat for Ware

Level 26 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Stud

Ron Ware completed with the {10-Diamonds}, and Sachin Bhargava defended the bring-in with {5-Diamonds}. He check-raised fourth street and bet fifth, but Ware picked up an open pair on sixth.

Ware: {x-}{x-}/{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Bhargava: {x-}{x-}/{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{a-Hearts}

At that point, both players checked. Ware bet the river, and Bhargava slammed some chips together in frustration. He folded, and Ware showed {10-}{3-}{2-} for tens full.

Chris Vitch Eliminated in 5th Place ($27,142)

Christopher Vitch

No-Limit Hold'em

Chris Vitch's 8-Game run has come to a close. The Day 1 chip leader lost his tournament life when he open-shoved his remaining 350,000 from the small blind, and Ron Ware called in the big blind to put him at risk.

Vitch: {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Ware: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}

Vitch was in bad shape, hoping for a queen to crack Ware's jacks, but he wouldn't get one. The {6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{8-Spades} board was all but dramatic, sending Vitch to the rail in fifth place. The WSOP bracelet winner collected $27,142 for his efforts.

Ware is now navigating more than two million chips, nearly 60 percent of all the goods in play.

Ross Misses a Wheel Draw, Doubles Soulier

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

Fabrice Soulier has doubled up again, this time in the 2-7 Triple Draw. Soulier was in the big blind, and he three-bet after Mike Ross had opened from the button. Ross called, and Soulier stood pat.

Ross drew one, then called Soulier's bet. They ended up all in after the second draw, with Soulier still patting and Ross drawing one.

Soulier opened {8-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{2-}, and Ross hoped for a five, six or an eight to win the pot and eliminate Soulier as he held four to a wheel with {7-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Soulier's hand, however, remained the winner, as Ross received another deuce. Soulier's all-in was worth 106,000.

Soulier Doubles Through Ross

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

Fabrice Soulier raised first to act and got his last 83,000 in after Mike Ross made it three bets in the small blind.

Soulier: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Ross: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

The flop came {7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, keeping the fives best, but the turn was the {k-Clubs} and the river the {q-Diamonds}, so Soulier doubled up.

Soulier Sinking

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Fabrice Soulier called on the button, and Chris Vitch made it 55,000 in the small blind. Soulier called. They took in a {7-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop, and Vitch potted. Soulier said he couldn't call and released his cards, and he slipped down close to 200,000.

Vitch Wounds Soulier in Omaha/8

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Under the gun, Ron Ware limped to invite Fabrice Soulier (small blind) and Christopher Vitch (big blind) into the race for the pot.

The flop came {4-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, and Soulier checked. Vitch took the betting lead, and both players called his bet. Vitch fired again on the {J-Spades} turn, eliminating Ware from the contest. Soulier called again.

The river was the {9-Hearts}. Soulier let Vitch bet for the third time, then called, but Vitch already knew the outcome: "I got this," he said before turning over {J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for a runner-runner full house.
