Double Delight for Dulay

MarcC

Jun Dulay made a standard raise from mid position before chip leader Andrew Cohen set him in from the big blind. Dulay shrugged his shoulder and called.

Off to the races we went as Cohen tabled {A-Spades}

to Dulay's {9-Hearts}

.

The board ran {5-Hearts}

.

Dulay hits a set that he didn't need and doubles up to 150,000. Cohen sits at just under 200,000 now.

Adler out of Time

MarcC

Al Adler just busted after a valiant effort over two days. Overhearing his table talk he seemed to have little to play with today and had to make a couple of good lay downs with big hands to survive too.

His exit hand played itself though as he open shoved for for 32,000 with {7-Hearts}

and was looked up by neighbor Osmel Castro with {10-Clubs}

.

As you already know the tens hold and Adler collects his cash and heads off through the relatively empty Amazon room.

Biggest Name In The Field Busts...

[user76023]

Jesse Duangrudeesawat, unfortunately for him but luckily for my spellchecker, has been knocked out. He moved his last 35,000 in with {A-Diamonds}

and Ferdinand Boleski made the call with {A-Spades}

. The board came {2-Spades}

and we lose the player with the 15 letter surname.

Fe-Lixed!

[user76023]

Felix Karli, last night's chip leader is out, he got his stack in on a {A-Diamonds}

board with {A-Spades}

but ran into the very nutty {J-Diamonds}

belonging to Casey Kuhn.

Although the turn was a {K-Spades}

, Karli could not get the board to pair the river as well, we're now left with just 14 left.

Creeping towards our Final Table

MarcC

It was folded around to Aaron Kelly in the small blind who moved all in. Sammy Porter, who has been playing a very thoughtful calm game all day, took one look at his cards and called.

Kelly showed {Q-Clubs}

but would need help against Porter's {A-Diamonds}

.

That didn't happen on a {7-Diamonds}

board and a frustrated Kelly leaves the table in a hurry.
