That Was Easy

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

One of the more amusing aspects of the featured table in this event comes in the form of Joseph Zeman's "Easy Button." The iconic red button made popular by a office supply company is sitting right behind Zeman's stack of chips. He recently won a three handed pot after the other players folded on the flop. As he raked in the chips he hit the button which proclaimed, "That was easy!"

Zeman is still near the top of the chip counts.

Lambrix Eliminated

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Nicolaas Lambrix open-raised all in from the cutoff and was called by Christopher Perez in the small blind who had Lambrix covered.

Lambrix: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Perez: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Lambrix's sixes found no help as the board ran out {J-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}, sending him to the rail and chipping Lambrix up to approximately 130,000.

Low Swept Away

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

David Low limped in for 3,000 and Joshua McBroom raised to 7,500. With action back on Low he committed his final 56, 000 and McBroom called.

Low: {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
McBroom: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The board fell {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades} one of the worst flops Low can see. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn had low drawing dead and the {k-Diamonds} fell on the river.

McBroom scooped up a big pot for over 50,000.

27 Remain...

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

We now have only 27 players remaining in the tournament and they are currently redrawing for seats for the final three tables. They will do another redraw when they hit 18 and again when they reach the final table. The tension in the air is building with each elimination.

Tammy Murray Knocked Out

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

In a four-way limped pot, Tammy Murray bet 6,500 from early position on a flop of {2-Hearts}{A-Spades}{10-Clubs}, only to see Romeo Samblero raise to just over 20,000 from the cutoff. The small and big blind folded, leaving just Murray to act. Murray fell deep into the tank and eventually Samblero called the clock on her, giving her just one minute to act. With about 10 seconds to go, Murray folded what she claimed to be a pair of aces.

In the very next hand, Edward Marcus open-raised to 9,000 from late position and Murray made the call from the big blind with just 8,000 behind. Murray donk-shoved into Marcus for the rest of her chips on the {10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop and Marcus made the call. Murray was in good shape and looking to double up with {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The turn came the {7-Clubs}, but a {Q-} hit the river, giving Marcus a higher pair and sending Murray to the rail.

Barela: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Dulay: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

The board came out {4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Dulay was sent to the rail.

Nagata Stays Alive

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Todd Nagata, from Las Vegas, pushed all in under the gun for his last 9,500 chips. Action folded all the way around to Stefan Martin in the big blind who called and flipped up {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Nagata turned up {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {q-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} on the flop, putting Martin ahead with a pair of sixes. Nagata eventually caught up on the turn and river when he caught two diamonds. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn and the {3-Diamonds} on the river.

Nagata now sits with around 20,000.

Martin Holds to Win Huge Pot

Livello 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Two of the bigger stacks in the room just tangled, with Stefan Martin propelling himself close to the chip lead at the expense of James Heisler. We caught the action on the flop of {7-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Spades} with 26,000 in the pot. The action was fast and furious, as Martin bet 20,000, Heisler went all in, and Martin called in about a 4 second span.

The cards were flipped up, with Martin showing {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} for an overpair and gutshot straight draw and Heisler showing two overs and a flush draw with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}, making him the slight favorite. Martin was able to dodge all of the outs, with the turn coming {4-Clubs} and the river coming {5-Diamonds}. Martin scooped the giant pot, and is now over 150,000 in chips.
