Delgrosso Dumps Some Chips

Marcello Delgrosso made a small raise under the gun and was called when action foled to the big blind. The two saw a flop of {J-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} and both players checked.

When the {K-Spades} hit the turn, the big blind bet 2,500 and Delgrosso made the call. The {J-Diamonds} paired the board on the river and, once again, both players checked.

The big blind turned over {3-Spades}{Q-Spades} for a flush and Delgrosso tossed his cards in the muck. He is down to 34,000.

"Sick Bet, Bro."

After a flop of {2-Spades}{A-Spades}{6-Hearts}, Will Failla checked and Adam Heger bet 2,300. Failla made the call and then checked when the {9-Hearts} came on the turn. Heger bet 4,800 and Failla called.

The river was the {4-Clubs} and Failla checked for a third time and said, "Bro, I ain't on the flush draw." Heger bet 10,400 and this time Failla shoved all in. Heger mucked and Failla scooped the pot. Failla claimed to have held {A-}{9-} and increased his stack to 55,000 while Heger is down to 18,000.

Broadway Cripples Brogdon

Edward Brogdon and an opponent were all in preflop in a hand that left Brodgon with just 1,000 chips.

Brogdon: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

The flop fell {6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}, keeping Brogdon ahead. The {k-Hearts} on the turn gave him two pair, but it also gave his opponent some more outs. When the river came {j-Diamonds}, Brogdon's opponent managed to hit his broadway straight, leaving Brogdon in a bad way.

326 Remain

We're on the bubble and play is going hand-for-hand. As expected, we're moving at a slow pace as people try to avoid two day's work for nothing.

Players Have Made the Money

It was slow and took four hands, but we have lost two players to burst the money bubble. One of the players who was eliminated got his remaining money in with {J-}{6-} and was way behind his opponent's {J-}{9-}. The flop brought a {9-} and that was the end of that.

The other player eliminated was Vinnie Pahuja. Pahuja was crippled the prior hand when his pocket aces were cracked by a flush. The very next hand, Pahuja shipped his remaining 1,200 with {A-}{Q-} and was called by {6-}{6-}. Pahuja could not improve and he appears to be the official bubble boy.

Once all hands were completed, the tournament director congratulated the remaining players for making the money. Action is now back to normal and we expect a surplus of eliminations now that the bubble has burst.
