"Not Bad for Coming Here With 27K"

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Greg Illig began the day as one of the shortest stacks with only 27,000, but he's well above average after busting Rob Stinson moments ago. On a flop of {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} Stinson moved all in with the {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Greg Illig called with pocket kings. Illig needed help to survive and it came quickly with the {K-Spades} turn. "Nice!" said Illig as he pumped his fist in the air. The river bricked off and Stinson was eliminated.

Raimondi Busts Anslow

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Peter Raimondi opened to 24,000 from the button and Zachary Anslow called from the big blind to see a {J-}{5-}{6-} flop with two hearts. Anslow checked, Raimondi bet 45,000 and Anslow check-shoved for 190,000. Raimondi called and needed to fade a flush draw.

Anslow: {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Raimondi: {Q-}{J-}

The turn and river bricked for Anslow and he made his exit. Raimondi is back among the leaders with 615,000.

River Kind to Rivera

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Alex Rivera opened to 23,000, Olivier Dufour moved all in with the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and Rivera called holding {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. The {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} board looked promising for Dufour until the {J-Hearts} arrived on the river. Rivera pumped his fist in the air in celebration as Dufour made his way to the cage.

In the Money

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Atif Choudhury moved his short stack in from the cutoff and nearly escaped without confrontation, but the player in the big blind peeked down at aces and snap-called. Choudhury was in bad shape with his {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and failed to get any help on the {K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Clubs} board.

With that, the remaining 45 players are in the money. Let the madness ensue.

Olshan Finds Timely Double

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Sharman Olshan was one of the short stacks trying to survive, but she found an opportunity to get her chips in moments ago. Olshan shoved for 34,000 from middle position and Darrin Bracken called from the big blind. Olshan was slightly behind with her {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} against {A-Spades}{9-Spades}, but the {Q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} board have her two pair and a much-needed double.
