Matt Woodward Eliminated in 6th ($44,520)

Matt Woodward - 6th
Matt Woodward - 6th
Matt Woodward pushed from the button on the very next hand for 324,000. Bahador Ahmadi called from the small blind and Barry Greenstein folded in the big blind.

Woodward: {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}
Ahmadi: {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}

The board came a decisive {K-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {7-Spades} {J-Diamonds}.

Ahmadi's friends shouted, "Good call, you're playing your hand bro!"

Greenstein Gathers More Chips

Barry Greenstein raised to 55,000 and action folded to Bahador Ahmadi, who called from the big blind.

Ahmadi checked the flop of {3-Clubs}{K-Spades}{7-Clubs} before calling Greenstein's 75,000 bet. Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} on the turn and Ahmadi led out for 80,000 at the {3-Diamonds} on the river.

Greenstein called and Ahmadi showed {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for two pair, which wasn't enough against Greenstein's better two pair with {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}.

Schwartz Puts Greenstein to the Test

Ylon Schwartz raises to 60,000. Barry Greenstein makes it 90,000 from the small blind and Schwartz calls.

The flop is {K-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {8-Spades} and Greenstein bets 30,000. Schwartz makes it 60,000 and Greenstein calls.

The turn is the {10-Hearts} and Greenstein checks, then folds to Schwartz' bet.

Schwartz Takes a Monster

Barry Greenstein raised to 90,000 from the cutoff and Karlo Lopez three bet from the button. Ylon Schwartz called from the big blind, as did Greenstein.

Action then checked to Lopez on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. His bet was called by both opponents, as was his bet when the {J-Spades} hit the turn.

Everyone checked the {4-Clubs} on the river and Schwartz showed {8-Spades}{9-Spades} for a straight, which took the pot of more than 500,000. Lopez showed {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for two pair while Greenstein mucked.

Lopez Wins Half a Mil

Bahadir Ahmadi raises to 60,000 on the button and Barry Greenstein makes the call. Karlo Lopez raises to 90,000 in the big blind and Ahmadi makes it 120,000.

Greenstein calls this and Lopez caps the betting at 150,000. Ahmadi and Greenstein call and there's 450,000 in the pot before we see a flop.

The flop is {Q-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {8-Spades}. Greenstein checks, Lopez bets 30,000 and both players call.

The turn is the {K-Hearts} and it's checked around, the river is the {Q-Diamonds} and it's checked to Lopez, who bets 60,000. The other two fold and Lopez wins over half a million in chips.

He shows {J-?} {J-?}
