Feldman Felted by Lew

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Action folded to Team Online's Randy Lew in the cutoff and he raised to 1,600. The button folded, and then Australia's Joel Feldman moved all in from the small blind for 13,200. The big folded, and Lew thought for about 30 seconds before making the call.

Lew: {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Feldman: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}

"Good luck," Feldman said, though he was the one that needed to improve. The {j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop paired his jack, but it also delivered Lew a set. Feldman needed to catch running cards to stay alive, but any chance of that happening disappeared after the dealer burned and turned the {8-Clubs}. The meaningless {7-Clubs} was run out on the river for good measure and Feldman made his way to the rail

Teja Topples Karamalikis

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Jonathan Karamalikis
Jonathan Karamalikis

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}, Satrya Teja checked to Jonathan Karamalikis who bet out 2,800. Teja called before both players checked the {10-Spades} on the turn before the {8-Hearts} landed on the river.

Teja tossed in three yellow 5,000-denomination chips to effectively put Karamalikis all-in, and after a few moments of consideration, Karamalikis made the call for his last 10,100.

Teja tabled his {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} and Karamalikis mucked and was eliminated as Teja moves to roughly 110,000.

Rubbing Salter in the Wound

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Action folded to Ilya Krupin in the cutoff and he put in a raise to 1,700. The button and small blind both folded, and then the UK's Jack Salter decided it was time to go and shoved all in for 11,325 from the big. Krupin made the call and the cards were turned up.

Salter: {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Krupin: {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Both players held an ace, but Salter was in bad shape with his inferior kicker. Fortunately for him, he got a bit of luck when the {4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Spades} flop delivered him two pair. The {J-Hearts} turn opened up a counterfeit option for Krupin, but the {K-Hearts} river did not complete it. Salter's two pair held to give him a double.

Fan Fills Up

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

On a flop of {4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} we found Terry Fan faced with a 2,050-chip bet. Fan responded by check-raising to 5,000 and his opponent called as the {4-Diamonds} landed on the turn and Fan tossed in 10,000.

Again Fan's opponent made the call before the {10-Diamonds} was checked through on the river.

Fan tabled his {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for trip fours that improved to a full house as his opponent flashed what looked to be {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} and mucked. Fan is now closing in on 70,000.

Tam Closing in on 200k

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Following a raise to 1,500, Aidan Tam three-bet to 4,000 from late position. The original raiser made the call before check-calling 3,700 on the {4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop before both players checked the {2-Diamonds} on the turn.

The river of the {10-Clubs} saw Tam's opponent lead out for 9,000 only to have Tam raise to 27,500. After a few moments of deliberation, Tam's opponent folded as Tam was pushed the pot to move to
