Bye, Bye Ms. American Pie

Jeff Lisandro
Jeff Lisandro
T6 Pro Jeff Lisandro has recently eliminated actress Shannon Elizabeth from the field.

Holding {K-Spades} {6-Clubs} and a fairly large chip lead, Lisandro put Elizabeth to a decision for all of her chips before the flop. Shannon made the call and tabled {A-Spades} {5-Hearts} for a slight lead against her opponent, but a {4-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {9-Spades} {K-Hearts} {3-Hearts} fell in favor of 2-7 runner-up Lisandro, sending him through to the round of 128.

Negreanu, Out!

Nicolas Levi limped from the button and Daniel Negreanu rapped the table, opting to see a free flop:

{Q-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}

Negreanu passed the first option to Levi who fired a 400 bet. Negreanu then check-raised, making it a total of 1,100 to go. Levi then reraised, putting Negreanu to a decision for all of his chips and the four-time bracelet winner made the call:

Negreanu: {Q-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}
Levi: {A-Hearts} {A-Spades}

Blanks on the turn and river spelled the end for Negreanu, sending Levi through to the round of 128.
