Kirchner Busts Steenkamp

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Dale Steenkamp was grinding a short stack for what seems like the last six hours, and his luck finally ran out a few moments ago.

Steenkemp open shoved his last 40,000 under the gun with {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, and Isaac Kirchner looked him up with {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. The board ran down {a-}{j-}{4-}{6-}{a-}, and Kirchner's trips sent Steenkamp packing.

After that pot, Kirchner is now up to 345,000.

Yamada Falls to Butler

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Derrick Yamada had hopes of making his second Circuit Main Event final table, after finishing runner up in Lake Tahoe last year but he fell just short of his goal, busting in 22nd place.

Yamada open shoved his last 150,00 holding {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, and he was called by the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} of Ashly Butler. The board ran down {8-}{8-}{5-}{4-}{2-}, and Butler's ace high was good enough to secure the bounty, and get his stack back up to 450,000.

Campanello Busts Riess

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded all the way around to Ryan Riess in the small blind, and he moved all in for his last 180,000. Unfortunately for him, Bryan Campanello woke up with {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts} in the big blind, and made the call. Riess was well behind with his {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}, and the board came down {2-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}.

Riess bowed out in 21st, while Campanello, who had lost a decent part of his stack, is back up to 740,000.

Eyster Busts Phillips, Cracks 500k

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The eliminations are still coming fast and furious here down the stretch of the tournament, and we are barely able to keep up with it. Just a couple of minutes after Ryan Riess busted, we lost Jacob Phillips.

Kevin Eyster started the action by raising it up to 22,000. Phillips shoved all in for his last 108,000, and Eyster looked him up.

Eyster: {a-}{3-}
Phillips: {k-}{q-}

The dealer put out a board of {a-}{j-}{4-}{q-}{4-}, and Phillips headed to the payout desk. Meanwhile, Eyster, who was one of our chip leaders when the bubble burst, is back up to 560,000.

Eyster Scoops Another Monster

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

No more then 10 minutes after busting Jacob Phillips, Kevin Eyster took down another huge pot to give him the chip lead in the tournament.

We didn't catch the action until the river, but there was a mountain of chips in the middle, and a board that read {6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. David Pecaski made a bet of 120,000, and Eyster responded by moving all in, having Pecaski covered.

Pecaski tanked for a couple of minutes, clearly pained by the decision. Eventually, he tossed his hand towards the dealer, giving the wave of chips to Eyster.

Pecaski plummeted to 205,000 after the hand, while Eyster jumps up to a chip leading stack of 742,000.

Kim Doubles Through Ho

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Benjamin Kim open shoved his last 82,000 on the button, and Ting Ho tanked for about a minute before putting the chips in for the call. Kim was in great shape with his {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} against the {a-Clubs}{4-Spades} of Ho, and he kept the lead throughout the {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts} board. Kim jumped up to 180,000 after the hand, while Ho fell to 190,000.

Blazer Binks The Double Up

Level 23 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Lawrence Blazer started the action by raising to 30,000, and Jared Ingles three bet it to 62,000. When it got back to Blazer, he moved all in for 216,000, and Ingles called, though he didn't look too thrilled about it.

Blazer: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Ingles: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Blazer was in great shape to secure the double up, and he kept the lead as the board came down {8-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Blazer bumped his stack up to 445,000, while Ingles tumbled to 320,000.

Lecavalier Busts, Final Two Tables

Level 23 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Isaac Kirchner has just busted Ross Lecavalier in a huge pot that has gotten us down to our final 18 players.

We don't know the exact betting sizes, but we know that Ross Lecavalier raised it up in early position, and Kirchner three bet him from the small blind. Lecavalier put out a four bet that was for more then half his stack. Kirchner moved all in having Lecavalier slightly covered, and Lecavalier made the pot committed call.

Lecavalier: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Kirchner: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Lecavalier was looking for a ten to secure the hand, but it never came, as the board ran down {6-Hearts}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Lecavalier, who started the day as the chip leader, will have to settle for 19th place, while Kirchner is now up to a whopping 835,000.
