The Room Fills with Boos

Livello 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Players have been taking full advantage of the Main Event coverage being projected up on the many screens in the Paris Ballroom and during one particular hand, all eyes were on Toby Lewis as he contemplated what to do with his nut flush on a paired board.

The room filled with gasps multiple times when the many viewers thought he would fold and when he finally did, the tournament area reverberated with boos.

A rather funny scenario to have a full tournament watching another tournament in action at the same time.

Dula Eliminates Buell on the Bubble

Livello 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Steve Buell moved all-in from middle position and Dalibor Dula made the call from the small blind.

Steve Buell: A♠J♥
Dalibor Dula: Q♠Q♣

Buell would flop a jack on the J♦6♦9♣ flop, opening the door to victory slightly wider, but the 7♠ turn and the 3♦ river would secure the elimination for Dula and send Buell home on the stone bubble.

Mackenzie Kramer: K♣K♥
Justin Fawcett : J♠J♥

The table let out a collective, "Awwwww..." when the flop came A♦5♦J♣, the turn and river never had a king come and the 4♠ and 3♠ were bricks.

Fox Finds the Fox Hole

Livello 19 : Blinds 8,000/160,000, 16,000 ante

Patrick Fox had the player on the button at risk and it appeared to be a flip when the cards were on their backs.

Button: A♣K♠
Patrick Fox: 6♥6♠

Once the flop came 6♦3♣3♦, Fox surged into the lead as he flopped a boat. The 5♦ on the turn dashed any hopes and the 9♦ on the river was of no consequence.
