Scott Clements Eliminated

After a flop of {6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, Steve Paul-Ambrose checks from the small blind, Scott Clements checks from the big blind, the player in the cutoff bets, Paul-Ambrose calls, and Clements calls. The turn card is the {K-Clubs}. Paul-Ambrose checks, Clements checks, the cutoff bets again, Ambrose folds, and Clements calls all in with Q-J (queen high). The cutoff shows pocket fives, and Clements needs a queen or a jack on the river to stay alive.

The last card is a blank, and Scott Clements is eliminated.

Phil Gordon Eliminated

Jimmy Tran limped under the gun, the small blind limped, and Phil Gordon checked his option in the big blind. The flop came {A-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}. The small blind checked, Gordon bet 2,000, Tran raised to 4,000, the small blind folded, Gordon reraised to 8,000, and Tran called. The turn card was the {2-Spades}. Gordon bet 8,000, Tran moved all in, and Gordon called with {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} -- trip fives. But Tran showed {9-Spades}{8-Spades}, giving him the lead with a spade flush.

Gordon would need to spike a full house to stay alive, but the river card was the {3-Clubs}, and Phil Gordon was eliminated.
