Topol Taken Out

Livello 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

We reported earlier that Stanley Topol got crippled after Jonathan Spinks sucked out on him. Well he got the rest of his short stack in preflop, and James Routos was the only player who came along for the ride. This time, it was Topol who was dominated and needed a three outer to survive.

Topol: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Routos: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop provided Topol with no help, coming {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The turn came the {8-Diamonds}, and the river brought the {9-Hearts}. Topol headed to the rail, while Routos strengthened his chances of making it through to tomorrow.

Van Nguyen Drops, Drops Out

Livello 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Anh Van Nguyen was under the gun when he opened to 18,000, and Christian Kruel three-bet a few seats over. When it came back to Van Nguyen, he shoved all in for just over 200,000, and Kruel quickly made the call to put himself all in for 178,000 total. Cards up, gents.

Showdown
Van Nguyen: {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}
Kruel: {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}

The board ran through {2-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, and Kruel scores the big double up to cripple Van Nguyen down to just 17,000 chips.

A full 8,000 of those had to go into the big blind the following hand, and Van Nguyen put the last of his chips in when Vitaly Lunkin raised. Lunkin's {K-Clubs} {10-Hearts} was a favorite against Van Nguyen's {Q-Spades} {7-Clubs}, and the {a-Spades}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} board is the last the Canadian will see today. He's out in 42nd place.

Spinks Gets There

Livello 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Jonathan Spinks moved all in from the cutoff for 111,000. Stanley Topel had control of the button and moved all in behind Spinks for 187,000. The blinds folded and the hands were turned face up.

Spinks: {k-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Topel: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Although Spinks was behind preflop, he turned the tables on the {9-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop. The turn {10-Clubs} and river {6-Clubs} were no help to Topel and he is left crippled while Spinks doubles to 240,000.

We missed the hand that took the last of his chips, but 2011 bracelet winner Mark "xqsays" Radoja will have to wait for another event to chase bracelet number two. He's out.

Williams Takes A Big Hit

Livello 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

It has been a roller coaster for Jeff Williams in this level, as he has just lost a big pot after doubling up about 20 minutes ago. Philip Lowery open shoved in middle position for 92,000, and action folded all the way around to Williams in the big blind. Williams counted out the chips for the call, then announced call. When the cards were flipped, Williams saw that he was well behind.

Williams: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Lowery: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

The flop came out {q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}, and Williams was already preparing stacks to hand over to Lowery. The turn gave him a shot at the pot, coming the {9-Clubs}. Williams would need a jack to complete his unlikely straight, and while the river was paint, it was the {q-Spades}. Lowery doubled up to 190,000, while Williams dropped down to 90,000 after the hand.

Captain Hook Coming Down The River!

Livello 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Michael Fosco opened the action with a raise to 14,000 which was called by Bruno Lopes, seated to his immediate left. Kevin Eyster then moved in his remaining stack of 88,000 before Fosco isolated the action by moving all in himself. Lopes got out of the way and the cards were placed on their back.

Fosco: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Eyster: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Eyster got up and started yelling for "Captain Hook's!". The flop was {7-Clubs}{k-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and now his rail, about 7 or 8 deep, all started yelling for those "Captain Hook's!" The turn was the {a-Diamonds} and just when they were about to give up, there he was, a "Captain Hook". The {j-Hearts} hit the river and Eyster celebrated with his rail.

Fosco began to smile and Eyster tried to comfort him. "You're my boy so I would have been happy if you won it too... not as happy though," Eyster said with a smile. He now has 200,000 while "his boy" slips to 100,000.

Radoja Crippled

Livello 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We just caught a bit of this pot, walking up to catch the turn card on a {7-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} board. Mark Radoja was heads up, and he checked to Isaac Baron. "WestmenloAA" put out a bet of 16,000 (or possibly 21,000), and Radoja made the call to see the {3-Clubs} fill out the board. Baron was allowed to bet 55,000 this time, and Radoja made a pretty quick call for most of his remaining chips.

Baron showed {9-Spades} {5-Spades} for the full house, and Radoja could only shake his head as he spun his cards into the muck. He's left with just 33,000 lonely chips now, the shortest stack in the room. Baron, on the other hand, is continuing his assault on the top of the leader board, stacking up 750,000 or so after that pot.

Linde Busted By Herm

Livello 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded around to Dylan Linde, who open shoved in middle position for his last 47,000. Mark Herm, the player who entered the day with the chip lead, made the call on the button. The blinds got out of the way, and the two players tabled their cards.

Linde: {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Herm: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Herm had Linde dominated, and he kept his big lead through the flop of {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}. The turn came the {8-Clubs}, giving Linde outs for a chopped pot as well as flush outs for the win. However, none of that came through as the river came the {5-Hearts}. Herm claimed the knockout, and his stack jumped up to 251,000.
