Deeb Bubbles the Lowball

Livello 12 : 600/1,200, 300 ante

After about the fourth hand of hand-for-hand play, Shaun Deeb moved all in from UTG and drew one card against caller Rami Boukai. The latter stood pat with {J-}{9-}{6-}{4-}{2-} and Deeb drew to a {9-}{7-}{6-}{3-} but could only pair his {3-}.

At the same time Brian Brubaker was all in and had a {Q-}{9-}{7-}{6-}{5-} against Nick Brancato's {9-}{4-}{3-}{2-} but the latter paired the {4-} and Brubaker survived to make the money.

Luneau Bubbles the Bubble

Livello 11 : 500/1,000, 250 ante

According to Jason Mercier, Alexandre Luneau moved all in from UTG for 16,000 with Nick Brancato the one to get involved.

Luneau held {10-}{7-}{5-}{3-} and drew a {6-} but Brancato held {7-}{4-}{3-}{2-} and also drew a {6-} to make Number Two to eliminate the Frenchman.

There are now 29 players left and we are playing hand for hand.

Mercier Draws a Three To Double and Stay Alive

Livello 11 : 500/1,000, 250 ante

Pokerstars Team Pro Jason Mercier wasn't looking too hot when after he pushed all in from the cutoff for his last 11,175, Tim Phan insta-re-raised all in. Phan got no calls and Mercier and him were the only two left in the hand

Mercier drew one and Phan announced he was standing pat with a nine-seven low leaving Mercier with only a three or a two for the win. But, Mercier got lucky and squeezed out a three for {9-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{3-} to beat Phan's {9-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{3-}.

Mercier after the hand even said, "Man, I almost stood pat with a jack there." He is now up to around 25,000 and must be feeling invincible after that SICK draw.

Bouk It

Livello 11 : 500/1,000, 250 ante

Rami Boukai, who a bracelet in 2009, called a raise from Shaun Deeb and they both drew one card before checking. Boukai showed a {J-}{8-}{5-}{4-}{2-} and Deeb simply said, "Jack-nine," and folded.

Boukai: 60,000
Deeb: 30,000

Galen Hall Out

Livello 11 : 500/1,000, 250 ante

2011 PCA Champ Galen Hall has just busted out 4 short of the money.

Galen was all-in with an Ace-low against Stuart Rutter's pat {10-}{9-}{5-}{4-}{2-}. Galen drew one and didn't improve when he drew a nine to bust with {9-}{9-}{7-}{5-}{2-}.

With Galen's elimination, play will likely continue to slow down as we are getting very close to the money bubble.
