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.

Cowboy Rides Into The Sunset

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

John "Cowboy" Land has been eliminated from play. He was short-stacked for a majority of the day and got in his last roughly 8,000 with pocket deuces before the flop. His opponent called with {A-}{Q-} and flopped an ace, sealing Land's fate and sending him packing.

Nguyen Crippled

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Andrew Nguyen and a lone opponent saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} in a raised pot. Nguyen checked over to his opponent who open-shipped all in for 12,625. Nguyen pondered for about a minute before calling only to find that he was behind.

Nguyen: {A-Spades}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

The turn was the {A-Clubs} and the river the {4-Hearts}, ensuring that Nguyen's opponents trips were the best ones. Nguyen was left with only roughly 7,000 after the hand.
