Mark Vos Eliminated by James Mackey

Mark Vos
Mark Vos
No-limit hold'em:

Now, for a little ginger-on-ginger violence.

Raphael Zimmerman opened from middle position for 6,000, Mark Vos raised to 17,000 from the hijack, James Mackey reraised all in for 60,000 from the button, Zimmerman folded and Vos called all in.

Vos: {K-?}{K-?}

Mackey: {A-?}{A-?}

The flop was {J-?} {J-?} {10-?}, the turn was a {Q-?} , the river was an {A-?} and Mackey's aces full of jacks took it down, eliminating Vos. Mackey is now up to 103,000.

Schneider Likes M&Ms

Stud:

Tom Schneider: x-x-5-8-3-9
Marcel Luske: x-x-J-K-Q-4
Sam Farha: x-x-10-5-A-5

After sixth street, Farha bet, Luske thought for a while before folding away his chances at the 40,000-plus pot, and Schneider called.

On seventh street, Schneider led out and Farha called. Schneider turned over 9-9-6 for trip nines and Farha mucked his hand.

A woman tossed Schneider some peanut M&Ms from the rail and said, "I made it for the river, I didn't like what I was seeing online!"

Schneider smiled and stacked his chips. He's now back to 185,000.
