Amit Makhija Wins a Big Pot and Eliminates Gavin Smith

[user37786]

Amit Makhija, Jacques Zaicik and Gavin Smith were all in preflop, with Makhija's pocket queens leading Zaicik's A-J and Smith's K-J. But it was Smith who hit the {4-Spades}

flop, putting him in the lead--but only for as long as it took the dealer to peel the {Q-Clubs}

on the turn. The {4-Diamonds}

on the turn didn't give Zaicik his straight and he was left with just 5,000 chips while Smith was eliminated. Makhijia chipped up to 135,000.

And on the very next hand Zaicik committed the last of his chips and he, too, was knocked out.

Patryk Hildebranski Eliminates Thomas Jean-Narc

[user37786]

All the money went in before the flop, with Thomas Jean-Narc's pocket aces way ahead of Hildebranski's pocket eights. But pocket aces haven't been holding up very well today and this was another example, as the flop came {5-Hearts}

and gave Hildebranski the set. Deuces fell on the turn and river and Jean-Narc was eliminated, while Hildebranski's stack grew to 170,000.

Sarah Bilney Doubles Up

[user37786]

Sarah Bilney moved all in from the button for her last 14,000 and Robert Zoellner called from the small blind. He had pocket threes to Bilney's {J-Diamonds}

, but Bilney hit on the {K-Hearts}

flop and her hand held up as the {9-Clubs}

and

fell on the turn and river. She's up a bit past 30,000.

Jorryt van Hoof Boots Connor Allisen

[user37786]

On the button Justin Fitz raised to 6,200 and in the small blind Jorryt van Hoof reraised to 25,000. From the big blind Connor Allisen moved in for his last 15,000 and Fitz got out of the way.

Two rather modest hands were revealed-- {5-Hearts}

for van Hoof and {8-Hearts}

for Allisen. The {6-Clubs}

flop gave van Hoof a pair and Allisen a straight draw, but the {A-Diamonds}

on the turn and {6-Diamonds}

on the river didn't help Allisen and he was eliminated. Van Hoof is up to 150,000.

Stephen O'Dwyer Doubles Up

[user38971]

Jason Tikijian moved all in for his remaining 45,000 preflop and Stephen O'Dwyer moved all in as well, shoving 95,000 in total. No one at the table called, leaving Tikijian and O'Dwyer all in and heads up. O'Dwyer held pocket queens to Tikijian's A-10. The queens held up for O'Dwyer and he's up to 140,000 after the hand.

Adam Geyer Eliminates Amit Makhija

[user37786]

Ralph Perry raised to 7,000 and Adam Geyer called on the button. Amit Makhija raised to 25,000 from the small blind and when Perry folded Geyer again called. The flop came {4-Hearts}

and Makhija led out for 20,000. Geyer raised to 43,000, Makhija moved in for 130,000, and Geyer called, showing {A-Spades}

to Makhija's {10-Spades}

. The board ran out {6-Hearts}

and Makhija was eliminated as Geyer raked in a huge pot that pushed his stack up to 300,000.

Adam Geyer Eliminates Ralph Perry

[user37786]

Adam Geyer knocked out yet another player as he and Ralph Perry got it all in before the flop, with Geyer holding pocket eights to Perry's A-J. Geyer flopped a set of eights and the board cruelly ran out A-A to give Perry trips to Geyer's full house. Geyer now has 335,000.
