Negreanu Busts to Muted Applause

Negreanu
Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu: {7-}{6-}{9-} / {4-}{3-}{3-}{10-}
Theresa Viganola: {a-}{7-}{5-} / {3-}{2-}{6-}{a-}

Daniel Negreanu completed, and then called the raise from Theresa Viganola. Viganola bet out on fourth and called a raise from Negreanu. She bet out again on fifth street and this time Negreanu called all in.

Negreanu managed to river a nine for a 9-7-6-4-3 low, but Viganola had him crushed with 6-5-3-2-A.

A few people at the rail gave Negreanu what our reporter most evocatively described as a "golf clap" as he busted.

Mariakis Eliminated

Catching the action on fourth street we found Michael Mariakis all in against Brett Helm and William Wood.

Helm led the betting on fifth and sixth street, before folding on seventh with the following boards tabled:

Mariakis: (X)(X) / {9-}{2-}{4-}{6-} / (X)
Wood: (X)(X) / {7-}{A-}{J-}{A-} / (X)
Helm: (X)(X) / {8-}{7-}{5-}{J-} / (X)

Wood tabled his hole cards o {6-}{5-}{3-} to make an seven-six low, while Mariakis tabled his {8-}{5-}{4-} for an eight-six low before making his way to the rail as Wood climbed to 115,000 in chips.

Wallace & Vomit

Chris Wallace: {4-}{5-}{6-} / {2-}{5-}{7-}{8-}
William Wood: {2-}{3-}{5-} / {7-}{4-}{j-}{8-}

Chris Wallace completed and William Wood raised; Wallace reraised, and Wallace called.

Wallace bet out on fourth and fifth streets and both times Wood called. When Wallace bet out on sixth street, though Wood raised, Wallace called all in for 200 more, and they turned their cards over.

Wallace managed an 8-7-6-5-4 low, but Wood had him crushed with 8-7-5-3-2 and Wallace hit the rail.

Vedes: {6-}{3-}{5-}{J-}{10-}{7-}{9-}

With Hachem making a seven-six low to best Vedes' nine-seven, Vedes hit the rail as Hachem climbed over 100,000 in chips.

Team PokerStars Represent

Three Team PokerStars Pros remain in the running as this tournament starts to get very serious indeed - at almost 10% of the remaining field, that's a pretty good show by anyone's standards.

Dario Minieri is the biggest stack among our Team Pros at the moment, on 125,000. Joe Hachem, on around 70,000, is just a little below average, and Daniel Negreanu is bringing up the rear on 40,000 or so.

Hachem Gets Lucky

Joe Hachem was the agressor, Tommy Vedes was the caller. At the end of the hand, Hachem was the winner, and Vedes the loser.

"I got lucky," Hachem told him, which can't have made Vedes feel any better as he plummeted to 11,000.

Hachem: {3-}{8-}{6-} / {9-}{2-}{3-}{5-}
Vedes: {k-}{6-}{4-} / {q-}{2-}{8-}{7-}

Three-Pair No Good For Nguyen

John Nguyen completed and Jennifer Harman called before leading on all subsequent streets with Nguyen calling until seventh, when he opted to fold.

Nguyen: (X)(X) / {A-}{8-}{A-}{8-} / (X)
Harman: (X)(X) / {3-}{2-}{K-}{9-} / (X)

"I hit three pair" stated Nguyen after tossing his cards into the muck.

"Good laydown. Solid" added Daniel Negreanu as Harman raked in the pot to climb to 72,000 as Nguyen slipped to 174,000 in chips.
