Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 7,000 ante
Jim Wheatley - 3rd Place.
Jim Wheatley - 3rd Place.

Bryan Campanello completed with a {5-}, and Jim Wheatley raised with {7-}. Campanello reraised, and Wheatley put it all in with a five-bet.

Wheatley: {7-}{4-}{2-}
Campanello: {5-}{7-}{8-}

A {j-} for Wheatley and a {9-} for Campanello put Campanello in the lead. Campenello's next card was a {10-}, meaning he could finish no worse than ten-low. Wheatley picked up two deuces, and Campanello a {9-}, improving him to a nine-low. Wheatley needed improvement or his tournament was over, but he was dealt a {q-}, and he hit the rail.

Sebastian Pauli Eliminated in 4th Place ($52,844)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Sebastian Pauli
Sebastian Pauli

With a {J-} showing Sebastian Pauli completed. Jim Wheatley made it two bets in the next seat over and with action back on Pauli he called all in for less.

Pauly: {6-}{8-}/{J-}
Wheatley: {3-}{2-}/{10-}

Pauli picked up a {K-}{7-}{k-} in that order and frustratedly tossed his cards down without looking at his last {6-}, making him a king-jack low. Wheatley on the other side had drawn a {4-}{7-}{6-} {9-} making him a seven-six low and eliminating Pauli from the tournament.

Bach Still Grinding

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Pauli: {X-}{X-}{X-}/{3-}{j-}{3-}{7-}

With his {4-} up David Bach completed the bet. Bryan Campanello called with his {4-}. Sebastian Pauli made it two bets with his {3-} up. Both other players called.

On fourth street Pauli and Bach were dealt {J-}s while Campanello received a {K-}. Pauli bet, Bach made it two bets, Campanello folded, then Pauli called.

Fifth street came and Pauli paired up with another {3-} while Bach drew an {8-}. Bach bet and Pauli called.

On sixth street Bach bet his {A-} and Pauli called after receiving a {7-}.

Seventh was dealt face down and Bach bet. Pauli eventually called.

"Eight-five," Bach said showing his {5-}{2-} under.

"It's good," Pauli said. He mucked without showing his hand. Bach has found a bit more life after that hand.

Bach Folds the End

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Sebastian Pauli bet every street through sixth in a heads-up pot with David Bach.

Bach: {9-}{q-}{3-}{10-}
Pauli: {2-}{j-}{7-}{3-}

Pauli's board was now far superior to Bach's, so he went into the tank on sixth street. After about two minutes, he finally decided to call. Pauli bet the end, and Bach again began thinking.

"I'm not thrilled that you bet the river," Bach said.

"But you'll call me anyways," Pauli responded.

"Eh you got it," Bach said after another tank session. "That 40 might pay off later."
