Vance Fires Big On River

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

We came upon the table to find the board reading {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Tim Vance was heads up with an opponent and his opponent shot out a bet of 4,000 into a pot of roughly 13,000. Vance took a moment.

"Alright," said Vance. "I raise,"

He tossed out 18,000 total and sent his opponent into the tank. After about a minute, his opponent released and Vance took down the pot, boosting his stack to about 44,000.

Clinkscales Follows Moneymaker Out the Door

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Chris Moneymaker was recently eliminated from play and his table mate, Rex Clinkscales, soon followed. We caught the hand where he lost a majority of his stack but it seems the killing blow came only a few hands later.

According to Clinkscales' Twitter, he got his money in with {J-}{8-} against a player's {Q-}{10-} on a {J-}{9-}{4-}{2-} board. The river was a queen to give Clinkscales' opponent a higher pair and he was sent packing.

Clinkscales Doubles Opponent

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

We picked up with the action when the board read {5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Rex Clinkscales announced "all in" which was a bet to put his opponent all in for his last 10,200. His opponent mulled over the decision for some time before finally deciding to call.

Clinkscales: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Clinkscales was behind and needed to pair up on the final street in order to see his opponent's exit from the tournament. Unfortunately for Clinkscales, the river was the of no help and he was forced to ship over a solid portion of his stack. He's now sitting on about 16,000 in chips.
