Josh Brikis Eliminated in 6th Place ($14,296)

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 2,000 ante
Josh Brikis - 6th Place
Josh Brikis - 6th Place

In early position Matt Perrins raised it to 16,000. Action folded around to Josh Brikis in the big blind, who re-raised to 48,000. Perrins looked back at his hand a few times and then went all in with a snap-call from Brikis.

Both players elected to draw one. Brikis showed a {7-}{4-}{3-}{2-} giving him a draw to the nuts, and Perrins showed a {7-}{6-}{5-}{3-} for a slightly worse draw. But, Brikis got unlucky and drew another {3-} to pair him while Perrins drew a {J-} to give him the pot and put him at about 500,000.

Brikis was bounced in sixth place.

One for Rightmire, One for Perrins, One for Bjorin

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 2,000 ante

Chris Bjorin raised to 20,000 and Robin Rightmire made the call. Bjorin stood pat and Rightmire drew one card.

Both players checked and Bjorin showed {10-}{7-}{6-}{3-}{2-}, but Rightmire's {9-}{6-}{4-}{3-}{2-} was good enought for the pot.

Thomas Fuller opened to 20,000 from the cutoff but had to fold when Matt Perrins moved all in.

Matt Perrins raised to 16,000 from the small blind and Chris Bjorin made the call, Perrins drawing two once more against Bjorin's one. Perrins check-called a 15,000 bet, but Bjorin showed {J-}{9-}{5-}{4-}{3-} for the pot.

Bernard Takes One Back

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 2,000 ante

Bernard Lee has been folding to a lot of three bets recently, but he just got one back with a big hand against Thomas Fuller.

Fuller in the small blind raised to 22,000 and Lee called from the big blind. Each player drew one.

Fuller bet 35,000 post-draw and Lee called and took down the pot with an {8-}{7-}.

Eighters Gonna Eight

Matt Perrins raised to 16,000 and Chris Bjorin made the call. Both players drew one card and Perrins fired out 31,000 before Bjorin raised to 91,000. It didn't take long for Perrins to make the call, and Bjorin said, "eighty-six," showing {8-}{6-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Perrins flashed {8-}{7-}{5-}{3-}{2-} and sent it into the muck.
