Ron Kluber Eliminated

It's game over for Ron Kluber. One of his opponents was consistently raising his big blind. When it happened again, Kluber shoved with ace-six. Unfortunately, his opponent had a hand -- ace-queen -- and snap-called. Kluber couldn't come up with the suckout. He has hit the cash games.

Campitiello Doubles Through Williams

Robert Campitiello has doubled through Daniel Williams after Campitiello pushed his last chips into the middle with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Williams made the call with {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}.

The flop brought plenty of cries of "wow" as it landed {K-Hearts}{A-Spades}{Q-Hearts} giving both players two pair. The turn was the {8-Clubs} but the {A-Hearts} on the river completed Campitiello's full house to double him up to 30,000. Williams slips back to 17,000.

Van Dyk Backslides

Jan Van Dyk raised for what seemed like the tenth time in a row. He was under the gun and made it 3,000 to go. Action folded to the small blind, who promptly moved all in for 16,500 total, folding the big blind. Van Dyk went into the tank, staring in silence for over a minute. He asked a single questions, "Aces?" which got no response. After another minute in the tank, he called.

SB: {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades}
Van Dyk: {K-Spades} {Q-Hearts}

Van Dyk was on the short end of a flip. He got no love on the {9-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} flop, the {A-Clubs} turn or the {6-Hearts} river. His stack dipped to 84,000 as a result.

Saab Gutted

James Suen just got away with one, and his victim was David Saab. Suen limped into the pot preflop, then was the only person to call Saab's raise. When the flop came down {2-Hearts} {4-Spades} {5-Clubs}, Suen shoved all in for a bit more than 20,000 as first to act. Saab snap-called with {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} and found himself up against Suen's {A-Spades} {8-Spades}. The {3-Clubs} promptly hit the turn to make a gutshot straight for Suen. Saab needed an ace or a six on the river to eke out a chop, but got the {7-Hearts} instead.

"You should be on the rail, my friend, talking about how badly you played that hand," said Saab. "That's alright. Sucking out is part of the game."

Despite that nonchalant attitude, after the hand Saab announced to the table that he is "on mega sick tilt." He had 49,000 in chips Suen is up to 52,000.

Davis Sends Jung's Kings Crashing

Tim Davis = Chip Leader
Tim Davis = Chip Leader
A monster pot has just gone down that left Justin Jung heading for the exit and Tim Davis raking in a pot worth over 80,000!

We caught the action on a flop of {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, where Jung led out for 6,500. Davis made the call in position.

The turn was the {A-Spades} and Jung quickly fired 10,000 into the middle. Davis deliberated and made the call, as the fans on the rail had to be moved back as they all tried to catch a glimpse of the action.

Before the river had landed Jung moved the last of his 23,700 chips into the middle, in a sign of super-strength. The river landed the {A-Diamonds} and Davis raised his eyebrows as he went into the tank. He eventually made the call and flipped over {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for running trips as Jung slammed {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} onto the felt in frustration at the way the hand went down.

Jung hits the bricks and Davis jumps to the tournament lead with around 100,000 chips.
