Today's Phrase Is "All In"

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The double ups have not stopped since we got down to our final two tables. Everybody is still pushing all in preflop and getting calls as well. Our most recent doubler is Gian Carlos Oliveri.

From late position, Dejuante Alexander raised to 37,000. Oliveri re-raised all in for a total of 236,000 and Alexander called.

Oiveri showed {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and Alexander showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. With no help on the board, Alexander shipped over most of his stack to Oliveri who now has 500,000 and he was left with just around 230,000.

Sybe Smit Eliminated in 21st Place ($14,116)

Sybe Smit - 22nd Place
Sybe Smit - 22nd Place

From under the gun, Sybe Smit raised to 24,000 and the small blind called. James Schaaf in the big blind moved all in which covered both remaining players. Smit quickly made the call, and the small blind, after about a minute or two of thought, folded.

Smit: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Schaaf: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}

The flop was {7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and left Smit drawing to a runner-runner straight. He was dead on the {a-Spades} turn, and Smit will have to watch his friend and fellow Dutchman, Lex Veldhuis, from the rail.

Jason Hallee Eliminated in 22nd Place ($14,116)

Jason Hallee - 22nd Place
Jason Hallee - 22nd Place

Jason Hallee opened the pot with a raise from early position to 26,000. Diana Allen called from the small blind and Gian Carlos Oliveri thought for a long while. He counted out his stack and also counted out chips for a raise before he finally just called. The flop came out {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and Allen fired out 100,000. Oliveri folded before Hallee moved all in for 378,000. Allen tanked for a few minutes before finally making the call.

Hallee: {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Allen: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

The turn was the {7-Spades} which gave Hallee three extra outs with the seven, but also took away the king of spades because Allen picked up a flush draw. The river bricked everything with the {9-Hearts} and Hallee was sent to the rail.
