Matthew Gallin Eliminated in 16th Place ($22,809)

Matthew Gallin raised before the flop, and Brock Parker made it three bets to go. Gallin moved all in for 42,000 over the top, and Parker called to put him at risk.

Showdown
Gallin: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}
Parker: {K-Spades} {10-Clubs}

The news was good for the at-risk Gallin, but the flop was quite the sweat. It came down {J-Spades} {6-Spades} {Q-Clubs} to pair up Gallen but leave Parker drawing live to his open-ender. The turn was a safe blank, the {6-Hearts}, but the river was not blank at all. The {9-Clubs} filled out the board and filled in Parker's straight, and he is responsible for Gallin's 16th-place finish here tonight.

Painter Counterfeited

We picked up the action on a flop of {3-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} as Darren Woods was check-raising Jameson Painter. Painter called the extra small bet, and Woods check-called a bet on the {A-Hearts} turn.

The river came the {K-Spades}, and Woods fired out now. Painter called with {A-} {10-} for aces up, but he was out-kicked. Woods' {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} had counterfeited his opponent on the river, and aces up with a jack kicker earns him the pot and the chip boost up to 830,000.

Painter is back to 292,000.

Mizrachi Chiu-ed Up

Michael Mizrachi opened for a raise and David Chiu called on the button. Mizrachi led out on the {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and Chiu called. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and Mizrachi fired again, earning another call. Mizrachi checked the {3-Spades} on the river, then called a bet from Chiu.

Chiu turned over {K-Clubs}{J-Spades} and Mizrachi mucked. Chiu is up to 250,000 while Mizrachi is on 270,000.

Grinder down, but not out

Matt Keikoan raised from under-the-gun, Brock Parker three-bet from the cutoff and Michael Mizrachi four-bet on the button. Both players called.

The flop was {7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and the action checked around to Mizrachi. He bet, Keikoan called and Parker folded. They went heads-up to the turn, which fell the {J-Diamonds}. Keikoan check-raised Mizrachi and he called the extra bet. Keikoan bet the {10-Hearts} on the river and Mizrachi caled.

Keikoan showed {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the flush. Mizrachi mucked, the {Q-Hearts} accidentally turning over as he did.

Keikoan is up to 410,000 and Mizrachi is down to 190,000.

More for Morris

Simon Morris open-raised from middle position, Darren Woods three-bet and Morris called.

Morris checked the {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop over to Woods, who bet out. Morris raised and Woods called. The turn was the {A-Hearts} and Morris bet. Woods called. The {K-Clubs} landed on the river and Woods called one more bet from Morris.

Morris showed {A-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for two pair and Woods mucked. He's down to 540,000 while Morris increased his stack to 470,000.

Parker Pulls a Pot

Matt Keikoan open-raised from the cutoff seat, and Kyle Ray three-bet next door. Brock Parker called from the small blind, Keikoan reraised, and both Ray and Parker called the extra bet to see a three-way flop.

It came down {8-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {3-Spades}, and both opponents called a Keikoan bet.

On the turn, the {Q-Hearts} drew a check-fold from Keikoan, while Parker check-called a bet from Ray. That brought them heads up to the {A-Diamonds} river, and both men checked it down.

At showdown, Ray turned over pocket nines, but he was pipped by Parker's {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts}. That moves the double bracelet winner up to 375,000, slipping Ray back down to 570,000.
