Guerin Rivered

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We walked past Table 28 to see the player in the hijack open to 4,200. It folded around to Didier Guerin on the big blind, who moved all in for his last 13,500 in chips. He was snap-called, as both players tabled their cards.

Guerin: {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

Guerin was in great shape when the board ran out {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} but the {A-Diamonds} on the river was the final blow, as it gave his opponent a better pair, sending him to the rail just short of the final break.

Joyce Triples, Egan Crippled

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

With the flop reading {10-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, Aron Joyce checked from the big blind, as did Michael Egan from late position, as their opponent in the cut-off bet out 4,000. Joyce quickly made the call, before Egan grabbed all his chips, and moved all-in for his last 33,400 in chips. The original better snap-called for his last 22,500, as Joyce sat forward in his chair, staring down at his cards.
With 25,600 chips in his stack, he eventually convinced himself to call, as all three players tabled their cards.

Egan: {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Joyce: {2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Egan had both players covered and had the chance to win the big pot if any club but the three or ace would show on the turn or river. Joyce could hit any three or running cards for trips, but both trailed the top two-pair of their opponent. The turn and river shocked everyone, as it came {5-Diamonds} and {5-Spades} to give Joyce the win with trip fives from nowhere.

Egan was left with 7,800 as Joyce rocketed up to 84,000 in chips.

Assadourian Doubles

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Eric Assadourian has casually gone through his day without much notice. So we were happy when we caught him involved in a big hand.

It started with the player under the gun opening to 3,500 before Assadourian raised to 8,500 from late position. His opponent made the call, as both players saw the flop come {K-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Assadourian’s opponent snap check-called a bet of 9,000 and when the {Q-Spades} fell on the turn, check-called the 19,900 all-in bet made by Assadourian.

Assadourian: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}

Assadourian was in great shape to double, but needed to fade a spade and king on the river. The {3-Hearts} was good enough to see him win the hand and move up to 80,000 in chips.

Hinrichsen Loses Some

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We arrived at the table to see the player under the gun open to 4,800, and getting called by another player on the button. The decision was then on Andrew Hinrichsen on the small blind, who after a minute of thinking to himself, moved all in for 58,000 in chips. He was snap-called by the original raiser for his last 18,000, as the other player in the hand got out of the way.

Hinrichsen: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Hinrichsen was unable to eliminate his opponent from the tournament, as the board fell {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to give his opponent top-pair, seeing him drop down to 40,000 in chips.

Zhao Eliminated, Marsland Commanding Chip Leader

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The action started with Jie Gao opening to 2,500 from under the gun, before being met with a raise to 5,100 from Dale Marsland on the button. It wouldn’t stop there, as David Zhao four-bet to 13,700 from the big blind.

Gao tanked for what seemed an eternity, and had time called on him. He eventually mucked his cards, as Marsland quickly moved all in for around 83,000 in chips. Zhao instantly made the call and the players tabled their cards.

Zhao: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Marsland: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Board: {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Zhao looked in great shape to scoop the massive pot, and move to overwhelming chip leader. However, the flop favoured Marsland, with the nine spiking to give him trips, and when the turn and river blanked, it was the end of Zhao’s day, as Marsland moves up to 160,000 in chips.

Zalac Busts

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We arrived at the table to see Ivan Zalac move the last of his chips into the middle from the small blind, and get called by his opponent on the big blind.

Zalac was trailing with his {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} against his opponent's {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, and found no help when the board ran out {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}.
