Kyte Rivers Alm as Bubble Approaches

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jon Kyte
Jon Kyte

Jon Kyte opened to 7,000 and Bo Alm called on the button.

The flop came {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Kyte bet 16,500 which was enough to put Alm all in.

Bo Alm: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Jon Kyte: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and Kyte leaned forward to throw the chips towards Alm. However, the river was the {6-Spades} giving Kyte a set and sending Alm to the rail.

"Better to be lucky than good," said tablemate Kanji Aleem as Kyte raked in the pot.

"Is throwing the chips the new standing up?" asked Karam Ramzi but Kyte remained silent.

Thivyanathan Busts to Karam's Kings

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

After an early position open to 6,000, Aaron Thivyanathan moved in his 82,500 in the hijack, and only Ramzi Karam called in the big blind to put him at risk.

Aaron Thivyanathan: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Ramzi Karam: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades} and the cowboys stayed ahead to eliminate Thivyanathan close to the money bubble.

Packer Picks Terrible Timing

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Leslie Packer and Majid Nadeem were heads up on a runout showing {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, with Packer moving all in for his final 30,500 chips. Nadeem snap-called, and the cards were turned over.

Leslie Packer: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Majid Nadeem: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Packer showed his pair of kings with a flush draw, but it was no good as Nadeem had already hit the nut flush. The inconsequential {2-Diamonds} completed the board, and Nadeem exclaimed "unlucky" to Packer as he wish the table good luck.
