Alaei Out

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Daniel Alaei raised to 1,500 and Yasuhiro Waki reraised to 5,000. Alaei made the call and the flop came down {7-}{6-}{5-} rainbow. Waki moved all in on the flop and Alaei made the call with {A-}{8-}. Waki held the {A-}{K-}. The turn and river both blanked out and Alaei had missed.

That hand knocked Alaei down to 11,000 and he was all in shortly thereafter with the {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts} against Michael Guttman's {A-Spades}{K-Spades}. The board ran out {J-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Alaei was eliminated.

Jarvis Loses a Big Flip and Busts

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante
Matthew Jarvis - eliminated
Matthew Jarvis - eliminated

2010 World Series of Poker November Niner and Full Tilt Poker Red Pro Matthew Jarvis has seen his tournament life come to an end here in Level 6 on Day 1c.

Jarvis was all in preflop with the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} for 41,000. He was up against the man who's been killing it lately, Charles Chua and he held the {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

Off to the races they went with the {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts} coming down on the flop. Chua stayed in front. After the {4-Clubs} hit the turn and the {8-Spades} hit the river, Jarvis was relegated to the rail and Chua saw his stack boom to 187,000 in chips. He's by far and away the chip leader in the event right now, but only time will tell if he can hold onto those chips.

Chua Picks One Off

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Charles Chua just picked off a bluff on the board of {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} with the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. His opponent had bluffed 16,000 on the river with the {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and lost. Chua is now on 120,000 and crushing.

He's also at the same table as one of the other big stacks in the room Daniel Reijmer. With the way Reijmer plays, this could mean an explosion of chips is coming soon.

Gorr Takes a Dip

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

With a 9,300-chip all in ahead of him, David Gorr made the call.

Gorr: {q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The board was spread {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{9-Spades} to see Gorr double his opponent up and slip to 31,000 in chips.

Flush for T-Hach

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Tony Hachem
Tony Hachem

On a flop of {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}, Tony Hachem fired out 3,600 and his opponent check-called to see the {5-Spades} land on the turn.

Now facing a bet of 5,000, Hachem bumped it to a clean 15,000 to force a fold from his opponent.

Hachem tabled his {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} and happily collected the pot to move to 45,000 in chips.

Ducks No Good for Kostritsyn

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

With a raise to 1,050 from under the gun, Alexander Kostritsyn made the call from the hi-jack before Joel Cohen three-bet to 3,000.

The original aggressor folded as Kostritsyn made the call to see a {8-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop fall with both players checking to see the {7-Clubs} land on the turn.

Kostritsyn fired out 4,000 and Cohen made the call before the {4-Spades} was checked through.

Kostritsyn tabled his {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, but it would be Cohen's {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} that would see him collect the pot as Kostritsyn slipped to 20,500 in chips.
