Black Out

Andy Black moved all in on a flop of {8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades} holding pocket fours but ran into the top set of his opponent, and was drawing to a miracle. The turn and river landed {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and it's lights out for Andy Black.

David Pham Chipping Up

On the turn, with a board showing {10-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {A-Spades} , David Pham bet 4,000 and his opponent moved all and Pham called. Pham held {6-Clubs} {8-Clubs} and his opponent held {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}. The {5-Clubs} fell on the river, completing Pham's flush and sending his opponent home.

After the hand, Pham moved up to 15,500 in chips.

Boeree Busts Clements

Liv Boeree has just eliminated Scott Clements after they got it all in on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-?}. Clements held {6-Spades}{7-Spades} for middle pair and a gutshot straight draw, but would need to improve against the pocket jacks of Boeree.

The turn and river bricked out and Clements is eliminated as Boeree moves to 6,600 chips.

Sebok Out

Joe Sebok was crippled in a hand on a baby flop when he held pocket nines but ran into an opponent holding pocket jacks.

A few hands later he pushed his short stack with {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} but ran into both {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} and {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} in the same hand. The board spiked a king to send Sebok to the rail.
