Laak Takes a Walk

We're not quite sure how the betting action went, but we do know that Phil Laak ended up all in for his last 17,550 against one other player after a flop of {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs}. Laak's {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} was behind his opponent's {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The turn and river brought the {2-Spades} and {4-Spades} which were of no help to Laak and he was eliminated.

Friedman Busted by Markholt

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

The pot was opened with a raise by a player under the gun before Prahlad Friedman moved all in from middle position for about 10,000. Lee Markholt was sitting to his direct left and reraised all in for 19,075. The original raiser got out of the way and the hands were turned up.

Friedman: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Markholt: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Right in the window, Markholt hit a set. The board ran out {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Friedman was sent to the rail.

Madsen's Day Toughening

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Jeff Madsen had a hot middle third to his day, but things have cooled off quickly here as the night has gone on. We just watched Madsen involved in a pot three-handed as the dealer spread out a {8-Clubs} {J-Spades} {3-Clubs} flop. The player in the big blind checked, Jeff Madsen (who was likely the preflop raiser) put out a bet of 3,135. Allen Bari tanked and folded next door, but the big blind came along with the call.

The turn came the {9-Clubs}, and it went check-check to the {10-Diamonds} river. With one last check in front of him, Madsen took his cue to bet 7,325. His opponent didn't waste much time calling, and Madsen knew he was likely in trouble. "Sixes?" he half-asked.

The big blind showed up {7-Spades} {7-Hearts} for the bottom straight, and it was good.

From his high point of around 70,000, Madsen has tumbled back down to 27,000 or so.

Good News, Bad News

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Which do you want first? We'll go with the bad, but feel free to read this post backwards if you want it the other way around.

Dwyte Pilgrim has just been eliminated.

We lost track of T.K. Miles and assumed he was busto. He's just reappeared on our radar with 33,500 chips.

The tournament giveth one, and the tournament taketh one away.

Cody Loses 100,000-Chip Pot

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Jake Cody had {a-Spades}{q-Spades} had the chance to eliminate his opponent all in preflop against his {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. His opponent had 52,350 preflop, resulting in one the largest pots of the tournament so far, if not the largest. Lucky for him, the window card was the {a-Diamonds}. Unlucky for him, the flop also came with the {k-Diamonds}.

Receiving no more help, the large pot was shipped away from Cody. Not to worry though, he still has a very healthy 46,500 left.

Money, Money, Maimone!

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

We just caught the tail end of this put, but it did get us back in touch with the early-day chip leader, Nick Maimone.

The board showed {8-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {7-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}, and there was about 9,000 in the pot when a player we don't recognize bet 7,500. Maimone had his full stack of about 35,000 out there as the covering stack, and his opponent was considering the call for his last ~10,000 or so. He spent a long while soaking in the tank, and he eventually grabbed his cards and lifted the corner of them as if he were about to muck them. He paused to gauge the reaction, though, then dropped his chips into the pot to call all in.

Maimone couldn't table his {7-Hearts} {7-Spades} quickly enough, and that knockout has pushed him back up to about 68,000.

Watkinson Bests Duhamel

Livello 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Lee Watkinson opened the button to 1,500, and Jonathan Duhamel three-bet to 4,275 from the small blind. Watkinson flatted, and off they went heads-up.

The dealer spread out a {9-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Hearts} flop, and Duhamel continued out with a bet of 4,700. Watkinson considered, then shoved all in with his covering stack. The two cards Duhamel was holding couldn't have hit the muck any faster, and he's chosen to save 11,250 chips for a better spot.

Like, one where he hits the flop, for example.
