Se-Bokked!

Not Seebs' Day...
Not Seebs' Day...
Sometimes it's just not your day.

Joe Sebok had capped the betting preflop with {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs} before Ugur Marangoz made the call. Marangoz called a bet on the {K-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {3-Hearts} flop before he and Sebok got it all in on the {A-Hearts} turn. Sadly Sebok had run into {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} and was eliminated on the {J-Spades} river.

Mercier Finds Limit Easy

I'm On A Boat!
I'm On A Boat!
When he flops a boat with {7-Diamonds} {7-Spades} on a {2-Spades} {7-Hearts} {2-Clubs} board that is...

He got 4 bets in on the turn vs his opponent before firing the {A-Clubs} river and getting a call.

That pot helping him up to 22,000.

JC-es The Chips

JC Tran has knocked out an opponent after he reraised preflop and got his opponent all in on a {J-Spades} {2-Spades} {3-Hearts} flop with {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} against {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}.

The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and the river was the {K-Spades}, rivered trips no good against a rivered nut flush.

Has It All

Hasan Habib is up to 34,500 after getting his stack all in with {A-Spades} {A-Clubs} on a {3-Hearts} {5-Spades} {5-Diamonds} board against {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}. The turn was a scary {4-Spades} but the river was the {9-Hearts} to put him amongst the chip leaders.

Williams Takes A Hit

David Williams has been knocked down to about 10,500 after a two pair vs two pair encounter.

The board was reading {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {3-Spades} and it was checked to Williams who bet 1,100. The small blind check-raised to 3,000 and Williams quickly set him in for the rest, finding an equally speedy call.

Williams: {A-Spades} {3-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {A-Clubs} {J-Spades}

The river was the {K-Spades} and Williams nodded his head and passed several thousand over to his opponent.

Biggest Stacks

These look to be the biggest stacks at the moment:

Jean-Robert Bellande -- 40,000
Matt Hawrilenko -- 40,000
Daniel Negreanu -- 37,000

Meanwhile Greg Mueller just walked past Erick Lindgren, the latter saying, "Are you in this?"

Mueller, "I was..."
