Dvoress Sends Livingston Home

Livello 21 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress raised to 250,000 only to see Alex Livingston shove for roughly 825,000. Dvoress made the quick call to set up a runout with Livingston the player at risk.

Alex Livingston: A♠J♥
Daniel Dvoress: A♦10♥

Livingston was in a dominating position for the much needed double headed to the flop but when it came K♠8♣10♦, that all changed as he would now need a queen or a jack on the turn to survive but when the board ran out with the 3♦ and K♥, Livingston's fate was sealed as he stood up to exit the tournament area.

Mercier and Elias Eliminated by Sapitavicius

Livello 21 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Jason Mercier was all in from under the gun for roughly 1,050,000, Darren Elias was all in from the cutoff for roughly 1,950,000, and both players were at risk against Arunas Sapitavicius in middle position.

Jason Mercier: J♠10♠
Darren Elias: Q♠Q♦
Arunas Sapitavicius: A♦Q♥

The 10♦9♥3♣ flop gave Mercier a bit of help while Elias stayed ahead, but the A♣ turn vaulted Sapitavicius in front, and the 6♣ completed the board to eliminate both Mercier and Elias.

Seidel Leads Turn, Binks River

Livello 21 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

Adrian Mateos opened to 250,000 from under the gun and Erik Seidel defended in the big blind.

Seidel checked on the 7♦5♦9♠ flop and Mateos continued for 350,000. Seidel called. Seidel then led out for 500,000 on the 9♥ turn and Mateos called.

The J♠ river completed the board and Seidel sized up to 2,000,000 to bring a quick call from Mateos. Seidel showed 10♣8♦ for a rivered straight and Mateos mucked in defeat as he told the Poker Hall of Famer and music enthusiast he had a nine.
