That's How Truong Rolls

Peter Matusik raised to 18,000 after which Tam Truong moved all in for 89,000. Matusik called, creating a pot for Truong's tournament life.

Peter Matusik{A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Tam Truong{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Matusik was in great shape to knock another player out, but the board brought {9-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

"That's how I roll. This is how you win tournaments!" Truong yelled as he had made runner-runner flush. He stays alive with just three tables left in the event.

Aston Shoots Up, Stavropoulos Eliminated

Everything has been going extremely well for Anthony Aston lately, and he's now one of the chip leaders.

Aston raised pre flop to 13,000 under the gun after which two players called. Manny Stravropoulos was in the big blind and he opted to three-bet to 38,000. Aston decided to move all in after this raise, and the other players folded. Stavropoulos made the call for his tournament life.

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{K-Clubs}, and Stavropoulos was knocked out.

Cheong's Ship Sinks, Cohen's The New Captain

Within a three-hand span things were turned around massively over on Table 31. The number two in the tournament was knocked out, and Hugh Cohen emerged as the new chip leader.

On the first hand it was Cohen who raised under the gun plus one to 12,000. The small blind called, and Cheong three-bet to 33,000 from the big blind. Cohen opted to four-bet to 62,500 after which the small blind folded. Cheong moved all in, and Cohen risked his 222,500-chip stack by making the call.

Kyle Cheong{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Hugh Cohen{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}, and Cohen doubled up to 480,000 chips. Cheong was left behind with just 100,000, and he moved all in from the button two hands later. Cohen called from the big blind.

Kyle Cheong{K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Hugh Cohen{10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {4-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{A-Spades}{A-Hearts}, and Cheong's tournament was over. Cheong seemed shellshocked while Cohen started stacking his massive new stack.
