Two Bracelet Winners Remain

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 3,000 ante

With Jeff Lisandro's elimination, which accounted for five WSOP bracelets leaving the table, there are just two bracelets represent. Perry Friedman accounts for one from winning the 2002 World Series of Poker Event #3 $1,500 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo for $176,860, while John Monnette accounts for the other thank to his Event #23 $2,500 Eight Game Mix win last year for $278,144.

Will one of these men be able to capture their second bracelet, or will either Huu Vihn or Tim Finne get their first taste of WSOP gold?

Jeff Lisandro Eliminated in 5th Place ($41,789)

Jeff Lisandro - 5th place
Jeff Lisandro - 5th place

After action was brought in, short-stacked Jeff Lisandro completed and received a call from Perry Friedman. The 2009 WSOP Player of the Year then led out on the turn only to call off when Friedman raised.

Lisandro: {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} / {9-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{A-Spades}{10-Clubs} / {10-Diamonds}
Friedman: {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} / {4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Spades} / {3-Diamonds}

Lisandro was ahead with nines when the money went in, but he needed to dodge Friedman's gut-shot straight draw, which became a double-gutted straight draw on fifth street. Sixth gave Friedman more outs, but it was the {3-Diamonds} on seventh that would give him the straight and send the five-time bracelet winner to the rail. Lisandro misses out on his sixth bracelet, which would have been his fifth in Stud variations, but he left with a $41,789 consolation prize for his fifth-place finish.

Mark Dickstein Eliminated in 6th Place ($33,325)

Mark Dickstein - 6th place
Mark Dickstein - 6th place

After John Monnette completed, Mark Dickstein put in a raise. Monnette not only called that bet, he called one on the turn before raising Dickstein's bet on fifth street. The latter called off and was ahead with a pair of tens, though he needed to dodge the overs and flush draw of Monnette.

Monnette: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades} / {7-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs} / {K-Spades}
Dickstein: {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts} / {10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{K-Hearts} / {J-Clubs}

Unfortunately for Dickstein, his opponent hit his flush on seventh and his run came to an end in sixth place.

Bryn Kenney Eliminated in 7th Place ($27,062)

Bryn Kenney - 7th place
Bryn Kenney - 7th place

Bryn Kenney completed with the {A-Clubs}, and Huu Vinh called along showing the {7-Clubs}.

Kenney: (x-x) / {A-Clubs} {8-Spades} {J-Spades}...
Vinh: (x-x) / {7-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {A-Hearts}...

Kenney bet his lead on fourth street, then check-raised all in on fifth. Vinh quickly called the remainder, and Kenney was at risk. The down cards were upped, and the boards ran out like this:

Kenney: {10-Spades} {3-Clubs} / {A-Clubs} {8-Spades} {J-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} / {4-Diamonds}
Vinh: {K-Spades} {7-Spades} / {7-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {5-Spades} / {J-Hearts}

Vinh's jacks up were plenty good, and he's sent Kenney off in seventh place. That's good for $27,062 as a consolation prize, but his first bracelet will have to wait for now.
