Katchlov Takes One from Vo

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

From under the gun, Tony Vo raised to 3,200. Eugene Katchalov reraised from the small blind to 8,800. Vo made the call and the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Both players checked and the turn brought the {7-Spades}. Both checked again.

The river card was the {10-Spades} and Katchalov bet 11,500. Vo mucked and Katchalov won the pot.

Giang Busts Schulman and Needles Him on Camera

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Nick Schulman was just busted by his friend Chau Giang. Although we missed the hand, we caught the antics put on by Giang after Schulman had exited the tournament. Giang held up Schulman's bounty chip for the cameras and gave Schulman a bit of a needle that will surely air later on.

At one point, Giang and Schulman ordered burgers from Bobby's Burger Palace here at Mohegan Sun. Giang said he lost to Schulman and had to pay the $20 for the two burgers, but because he busted him he won $2,000 and considers it a big win.

Tony Vo just busted Kurt Kohlberg to earn his third bounty of the day and tie Eli Berg for the most bounties. Kohlberg shoved in for 9,200 from the cutoff seat with the {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Vo called in the big blind with a dominating {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}.

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Kohlberg hit the rail.

Berg Crushing

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Eli Berg
Eli Berg

Eli Berg is doing work over at his table. He eliminated Jonathan Duhamel and had the chip lead three handed with 88,000 in chips to Jimmie Guinther's 66,000 and Blake Purvis' 46,000. Then, Berg busted Purvis.

On the flop of {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}, Berg and Purvis got the money in. Berg flopped trips with the {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Purvis held an open-ended straight flush draw with the {J-Spades}{10-Spades}. The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and the river the {5-Clubs} to give Berg a full house and send Purvis to the rail.

Berg now has three bounties and that's the most in Flight A. He also holds the chip lead over Guinther with about 140,000 to Guinther's 60,000.

Lyndaker Out

Richard Lyndaker was all in for 17,200 and called by Scott Blackman. Lyndaker held the {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} and was dominating the {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for Blackman.

The flop came down {10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and kept Lyndaker in front. The turn added a flush draw for Blackman with the {J-Diamonds} peeling off. The river missed his flush draw, but landed with the {9-Spades} to give Blackman a pair of nines and bust Lyndaker.

Panayiotou Busts Conley

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

On the feature table, the flop was {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} when Eracles Panayiotou and Justin Conley got all the money in. Panayiotou held the {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for middle pair and a flush draw. Conley held a worse flush draw with the {8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and was the player at risk in the hand.

The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and the river the {2-Hearts}. Conley wasn't able to improve past the pair of tens for Panayiotou and hit the rail.
