Queens Hold for Adler

Action checked to Gary Myers who limped from the button before Adam Adler raised to 4,600 from the small blind. Jeffrey Wan called from the big blind, as did Myers.

All three players then checked down the board which came {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{5-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Adler said "I guess these are good," before turning over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. He was right, and took down the pot.

Vinsant Vanquished

Early exit for Vinsant
Early exit for Vinsant
We wandered over to find Jeremiah Vinsant's chair empty and his starting 45,000-chip stack felted.

Talking to his fellow tablemate's they were able to give us some light on Vinsant's exit. Facing a raise in late position, Johnny Neckar reraised holding {A-?}{K-?} in the small blind, and with the action on Vinsant in the big blind he pushed all in.

The original raiser passed, but Neckar made the call to be in great shape against Vinsant's {J-?}{10-?}.

The board bricked out and Vinsant headed to the rail as Neckar soared to 115,000 in chips.

Deeb Eliminates Two

Deeb delivers early blow
Deeb delivers early blow
Shaun Deeb opened to 3,000 from early position, and with the action folding round to Jim Young in the cutoff, he pushed all in for his last 11,600 as did Jim Tipton and his last 1,300.

Deeb asked for a count and made the call announcing, "this is my favorite hand" and tabled his {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} to be behind Young's {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Tipton's {A-Spades}{5-Spades}.

The flop of {10-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{9-Hearts} pretty much locked the pot for Deeb, and when the turn and river fell the {7-Hearts} and {9-Hearts} Deeb took down two opponents while climbing to over 100,000 in chips.

Woodall Takes An Early Pot

Yue Fan Huang raised to 3,500 from late position and Warren Woodall called from the button.

Both players checked through the turn as the board came {5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. When Huang checked the {9-Diamonds} on the river, Woodall bet 7,000 and took the pot.
