William Thorson Eliminated

William Thorson
William Thorson
In an unraised, multi-way pot, the flop came down {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}. The small blind checked, the big blind led out, Thorson flat-called, the button re-raised to 2,500, and then, the small blind shoved all in. The big blind mucked, Thorson called all in and the button also called.

Button {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}
Small Blind K-T
Thorson {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The turn was a doozy-- the {10-Spades}. Thorson made nines full, the small blind made tens full, and the button made a straight flush leaving everyone drawing dead and eliminating Thorson.

Tom McEvoy Eliminated

Tom McEvoy=Busto
Tom McEvoy=Busto
Tom McEvoy moved all in for his remaining 7,000 with Q-Q and was called by an opponent with A-T. McEvoy looked good to double up and finally get something going today... only a river ace fell and sent him to the rail.

Englishman Steve Jelinek had gotten short and pushed from the small blind for just over 3,000 chips. He got looked up by the big blind, whose {A-Spades}{3-Hearts} was a favorite, as Steve was wielding the mighty hammer: {7-Spades}{2-Hearts}. No help materialized and Steve Jelinek was eliminated.

Nice Pot Sir...

With the board reading {2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} Johan Lund bets 5,600 into a 1,500 chip pot. Alexander Ellinson deliberates for a while and then calls. Johan shows {6-Spades}{3-Clubs} to take a 26,000+ chip pot as Alexander mucks.

Charles Furey Takes One Down

With 1,500 in the pot from pre-flop action, Charles Furey calls a 2,000 chip bet on a flop of {3-Spades}{J-Spades}{9-Hearts}. Both players check the {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades} turn and river with Charles turning over {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the rivered straight and he adds more chips to his stack.
