Matt Hawrilenko Eliminated in 16th Place ($20,916)

Level 18 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Matt Hawrilenko - 16th place
Matt Hawrilenko - 16th place

Matt Hawrilenko's exit, was a tale of two hands.

Hawrilenko: {x-}{x-} / {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} / {x-}
Tang: {x-}{x-} / {10-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} / {x-}
Brown: {x-}{x-} / {5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} FOLDED

Hawrilenko checked on fourth and then check-raised when Tang bet and Brown called but both called the raise. Hawrilenko then fired fifth with Tang calling and Brown folding, Tang called another bet on sixth street as well. On seventh, Hawrilenko check-called a bet but was very disappointed when Tang turned over {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} for trips to win the pot.

This left the former WSOP bracelet winner as the short stack and he was soon all in against Tang but couldn't make a pair with his board coming {K-}{J-Spades} / {10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-}{9-Spades} / {4-Spades} as Tang managed to make queens on a board of {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} / {K-Clubs}{8-}{Q-Hearts}{2-Spades} / {J-Clubs} - enough to win the pot.

Landfish or Sea Monster?

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Mizzi: {x-}{x-} / {6-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts} / {x-}
Landfish: {x-}{x-} / {8-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades} / {x-}

Sorel Mizzi had raised and Steve Landfish called, Mizzi fired again on forth but Landfish put in a raise before both players checked fifth. Mizzi then fired again on sixth and seventh and Landfish called both times.

"Sixes," said Mizzi and Landfish turned over {Q-Spades}{3-Spades}{K-Clubs} for kings to take the pot.

McCormick Busted By Nguyen

Tom McCormick
Tom McCormick

McCormick: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} / {2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} / {3-Spades}
Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} / {K-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} / {J-Hearts}

Tom McCormick was all in and ahead again on third against Men Nguyen. McCormick lead with 7's, but Nguyen made 8's on sixth. Nguyen flipped his last card first and it was of no help to him so McCormick would need to pair up to avoid elimination. Unfortunately for him, he bricked out and was eliminated as our bubble boy. We are now having a table redraw.

Glantzing Blow

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

While we are playing hand for hand, Matt Glantz took a decent pot off Men Nguyen.

Glantz: {x-}{x-} / {K-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts} / {x-}
Nguyen: {x-}{x-} / {2-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{K-Clubs} / {x-}

Glantz fired fourth and fifth and then again on sixth when Nguyen checked, after which last year's champion finally gave it up. Glantz showed him buried queens.
