End of the Line For Cantu

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Brandon Cantu was knocked down to just a few thousand chips after losing a big hand against David Bach, and we just saw him hit the rail.

Three players went to fourth street and it was Barlow who bet, Cantu raised and Bach folded his cards. Barlow called and on fifth street he lead out and Cantu tanked for quite a long time before making the call with just 1,500 chips left behind.

"You want to put in the rest blind?" Cantu asked, and Barlow obliged.

Barlow: {3-}{6-} / {2-}{9-}{8-}
Cantu: {4-}{8-} / {3-}{9-}{J-}
Bach: (X-X) / {5-}{Q-}fold

What followed went by very quickly and Barlow ended up with a nine-eight low while Cantu missed his draw to a better nine-eight.

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Brandon Shack-Harris: (X-X) / {4-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} / (X)
Mike Watson: (X-X) / {6-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} / (X)

On seventh street Brandon Shack-Harris bet out 10,000, and with only 13,000 in his stack, Watson deliberated for several minutes before making the call.

Shack-Harris tabled his {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Watson mucked. However the next hand, Watson managed to double through Todd Barlow to return to 13,000 in chips.

Cantu Can't Do

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Brandon Cantu limped and David Bach completed with Cantu calling. Bach bet fourth, fifth and sixth streets with Cantu calling until he raised sixth to 20,000. Bach called and then was faced with a 10,000-chip dark bet which Bach calling.

Cantu: (X-X) / {10-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} / (X)
Bach: (X-X) / {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades} / (X)

Cantu tabled his {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades} for a seven-six low, but it was Bach's {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for a seven-five low to capture the pot and launch to over 200,000 as Cantu was left with just 21,000 in chips.

Huge Hand For Hastings, Chidwick Eliminated

Level 12 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Brian Hastings
Brian Hastings

Brian Hastings, Hoyt Corkins and Stephen Chidwick just created some fireworks on third street, which resulted in the latter being all in for his tournament life.

When Hastings announced, "five bets" it was time for Chidwick, who was caught in the middle of this raising war, to commit his final chips to the pot. Corkins called the raise and all three players went to fourth street.

Hastings: (X-X) / {A-}{6-}{K-}{4-} / (X)
Chidwick: (X-X) / {6-}{10-}{Q-}{2-} / (X)
Corkins: (X-X) / {A-}{A-}{J-}{7-}fold

Hasting bet fourth, Corkins called and on fifth he check-called a bet. On sixth street Corkins check-folded and Hastings showed {5-}{3-} for a six-five low. Chidwick tabled {3-}{10-} and he was drawing dead. Seventh street was meaningless and Chidwick left the tournament room empty handed.
