Lehr Bounces Binger

Michael Binger was all in for around 36,000 when we arrived at Table 446, and the flop was {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{j-Spades}. Keith Lehr and Andy Seth were battling for a side pot, and Lehr bet enough to force Seth to fold.

Lehr tabled {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, and Binger showed {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. The turn was the {6-Spades}, the river was the {q-Hearts}, and Binger was eliminated in 28th place.

The remaining 27 players are now redrawing to the final three tables. We'll have a complete table draw for you shortly.

Allan's Le-aving

Andrew Brown opened to 17,000 in middle position, Allan Le moved all in for 27,000 from the small blind, and Bryn Kenney cold-called from the big blind. Brown called as well, and the flop came {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. Brown and Kenney checked.

The two also checked after the {3-Diamonds} turned, and the {4-Spades} fell on the river. Kenney tabled {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for trip nines, and we never saw Le's hand.

Clemencon Clobbered

Allen Cunningham doubled through Tristan Clemencon, leaving him with just 3,000 chips, and the next hand, Clemencon moved all in for less than a small blind. Cunningham raised the pot from the cutoff, Joe Kushner called from the small blind, and the flop came {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades}. Kushner checked, and Cunningham went all in. Kushner folded.

Clemencon: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Cunningham: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The turn was another nine - the {9-Hearts} - and the {j-Clubs} completed the board, eliminating Clemencon in 31st place.

RW3rd Player Paid

Jan-Peter Jachtmann limped in from the small blind, and Robert Williamson III checked from the big. The flop was {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and RW3 got the remainder of his 80,000-chip stack in the middle holding {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Jachtmann had him at risk with {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Jachtmann's flopped full house held as the turn and river came {10-Hearts}, {3-Hearts} respectively, and RW3 became our third player eliminated in the money.

Huck Seed Bubbles on Fourteenth Hand of Hand-for-Hand Play

Matthew Kirk opened to 12,000 from the cutoff, and Huck Seed defended his big blind. The dealer fanned {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, and Seed moved all in for 13,000. Kirk called.

Seed{a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Kirk{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Seed had two pair, but Kirk had a flush draw, and he completed said flush when the {3-Diamonds} turned. The {k-Spades} on the river did not improve Seed's hand, making him our bubble boy.
