Hachem Halted

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Joe Hachem is no longer in the tournament after flopping a set of nines and getting it allin against an opponent holding {k-}{k-}.

The {k-} on the river would be an unlucky card for Hachem as he was sent to join his brother on the rail.

Heart Not Good Enough For Portaro

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

With a raise in front, the player on the button moved his remaining 4,525 into the pot. Bruno Portaro was in the small blind and he made the call, while the initial bettor also came along to play.

The flop turned over {3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and the allin player watched on as Bruno Portaro led out for 8,000. The other opponent in the pot would open fold {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and it would be just Portaro putting the other player in danger.

Portaro: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

By the time the {2-Spades} rolled off on the turn, the folded tens would have been in front but when the {2-Hearts} came on the river it was a double-up for one player while Portaro takes a small hit to his stack.

Eames Alive; Gupta Survives

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

John Eames and Ash Gupta just battled head to head, with Eames' having his tournament life on the line holding {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} against Gupta's {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}.

Flop: {7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

A good flop for Gupta as he was looking to knock Eames out and see his stack increase to over 30,000. The turn card had other ideas, falling the {10-Clubs} and when the river bricked it was a double-up for Eames.

Gupta now falls to around 8,500 while Eames moves to 25,000.
