Mizrachi Eliminated

Robert Mizrachi has been eliminated from the tournament. According to Matt Waxman, Mizrachi opened the cutoff seat and the big blind, Thibaud Guenegou, three-bet before Mizrachi four-bet shoved for around 90,000. He held two eights, but Guenegou held pocket aces. There was no help for Mizrachi and he headed to the rail.

The Lone Ranger: Sean Getzwiller

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

There was a raise from under the gun and the action folded around to the teeny-weeny and the giant blinds. Sitting in the teeny-weeny blind was Ilan Boujenah and he three-bet to 17,000. Seated in the giant blind was WSOP bracelet winner Sean Getzwiller and he moved all-in for 81,000. The original raiser folded leaving the decision solely on the shoulders of Boujenah.

"You are an American," said Boujenah

"Yeah, so what?" Asked Getzwiller

"You Americans are like Lone Rangers," said Boujenah before folding his hand.

Rijkenberg Back Up

We just watched Constant Rijkenberg pay off a ~60,000-chip double up to the gentleman in Seat 1. The board was {8-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {7-Hearts}, and Mr. Double-Up was working with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. We were too late to the table to see Rijkenberg's already-mucked hand, but whatever it was, it couldn't beat ace-queen-high.

As we told you already, though, Rijkenberg is one of the most volatile players in the room. Even after paying off that double, he's still up from our last check. We eyeball him at 555,000 now -- still the biggest stack in the room.

Mattern Rivered?

Arnaud Mattern opened to 7,000, and Brian Roberts three-bet to 20,500 from the big blind. Mattern called, and off they went.

The flop came {8-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, and we had to step away to watch a hand at the adjacent table, so we're not sure what the betting action was. When we checked back, the turn {8-Spades} was out on board, and Roberts had a bet of 42,000 out in front of him. Mattern called, and the {A-Clubs} completed the board. Roberts checked. Lifting his glasses, Mattern asked to see Roberts' chips. Both men had about 135,000 left in their stacks, and Mattern eventually checked it back.

Roberts tabled {A-Diamonds} {9-Spades}, and Mattern hissed in displeasure. "River," he said flatly, spinning his cards into the muck.
