What Can Brown Do for You?

Livello 12

After getting crippled down to just 200 in chips, Andrew Brown has been on the comeback trail. First he won a pot in Stud-8 to get back to 700 before wisely investing that money into a hand shortly thereafter. Brown won that pot and now has 4,000 in chips.

Flop: {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

Pescatori, known as the "Italian Pirate", led out for a bet of 1,200 and Akkari made the call. The turn card came {6-Clubs} and both players checked the action.

River: {10-Hearts}

Pescatori led out for a bet of 2,400 and Akkari made the crying call. The Pirate's {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} proved to be good enough and Akkari mucked his hand. We will keep you updated as these two veterans of the tournament circuit continue to do battle.

Bach Bags Elezra

Livello 12

Sutd-8:

We missed the most of the betting but a large pot was at stake as Eli Elezra and David Bach played a heads-up hand.

Bach tabled the {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{J-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for two pair, aces and jacks, and Elezra mucked his cards with a smile, saying, "Is that all David, just two pair?" Elezra must not be accustomed to losing pots so far in this $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. event, as he appeared to be surprised that his holding was not the winner.

Ole! The Matador Slays Another

Livello 12

Stud:

We caught the action as Carlos "The Matador" Mortensen and one opponent were involved in a hand of seven card stud.

Mortensen: (X)(X) - {7-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} - (X)
Opponent: (X)(X) - {A-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts} - (X)

The Matador bet 1,200 on third street and was raised to 2,400 by his opponent. Mortensen came along and slowed down on fourth street, checking the action. His opponent fired a bet of 2,400 at the tournament veteran and Mortensen made the call. The action repeated itself on sixth street and after the last down card was dealt, Mortensen's opponent pushed all in for his last few chips.

The two-time bracelet winner looked his man up and tabled the {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for an ace-high flush, while his opponent could only show down the {A-Hearts}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs} for a pair of aces. The opponent was eliminated and Mortensen built his stack to over 39,000 chips.
