Ben Yu Eliminated in 20th Place ($18,254)

Level 21
Ben Yu
Ben Yu

Razz

Richard Ashby completed and Ben Yu raised. The action got back to Ashby who called, then on fourth street Ashby bet out and Yu called. Yu then folded on fifth, leaving himself with just 19,000 chips.

Ashby: {X-}{X-} / {7-}{8-}{2-}
Yu: {X-}{X-} / {A-}{Q-}{8-} --fold

Two hands later Calvin Anderson had the bring-in and Daniel Negreanu completed. Richard Sklar and Ashby called and Yu tossed in the call as well, keeping just 2,000 chips left behind. On fourth street Negreanu and Sklar checked to Ashby who bet, Yu called all in, and both Negreanu and Sklar called as well.

On fifth Ashby bet again and that got the two other players to fold.

Negreanu: {X-}{X-} / {A-}{4-}{K-} --fold
Sklar: {X-}{X-} / {8-}{6-}{10-} --fold
Ashby: {A-}{9-} / {4-}{3-}{6-}{7-} / {Q-}
Yu: {5-}{2-} / {7-}{10-}{Q-}{2-} / {A-}

Yu was drawing dead on sixth street against Ashby's seven-six when his deuce paired up, and Ashby raked in the pot to cut the field to 19 players.

Kost Doubles Through Ohel

Level 22

Limit Hold'em

Action folded to Nick Kost in the small blind and he moved out a raise. Randy Ohel thought for a moment before making it three bets to go. Kost four-bet shoved all in and Ohel called. The cards were tabled to reveal that the two were racing for Kost's tournament life.

Kost: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Ohel: {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The dealer fanned {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} on the flop, pairing Ohel's eight and giving him the lead in the hand. Kost stood up from the table began to gather his belongings. The {5-Spades} dropped down on the turn and gave Kost the lead with a set of fives. The {4-Clubs} completed the board and Kost was able to ship the double up to around 105,000. Ohel's stack has fallen to about 515,000.

Negreanu showed {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades} for kings and tens and the second best hand. Goldman scooped the pot and now has about 260,000 in chips. Negreanu has dropped to around 95,000.

Ashby Keeps Firing

Level 22

Limit Hold'em

Richard Ashby raised from the button and Lee Goldman made it three bets from the small blind. It folded back to Ashby and he made it four bets to go. Goldman called.

The flop came down {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Goldman checked. Ashby continued his aggression with a bet and Goldman stuck around. The {2-Spades} put two pair on the board on the turn and the action once again went check-bet-call. The river was the {4-Hearts} and Goldman checked for a third time. Ashby fired one last bet, sending Goldman into the tank. He eventually opted to lay his hand down and Ashby was pushed a pot that brings his stack up to 515,000.

Daniel Negreanu Eliminated in 18th Place ($18,254)

Level 22
Daniel Negreanu - 18th Place
Daniel Negreanu - 18th Place

Omaha 8

Daniel Negreanu and Lee Goldman took a flop of {10-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} in a raised pot. Negreanu led out with a bet and Goldman instantly announced a raise. Negreanu three-bet all in for 11,000 more on top and Goldman called.

Negreanu: {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Goldman: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

"I have a flush," said Negreanu.

"There's no flush," replied Goldman.

"It's coming."

While "Kid Poker"'s statement was met with laughter from the table, his prediction was incorrect. The board finished with the {Q-Spades} and the {J-Clubs}, failing to give him a flush and allowing Goldman to finish with a winning Broadway straight. Negreanu was eliminated in 18th place and Goldman now sits at 275,000 in chips.
