Marsland Falling
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
We caught the action with Dale Marsland re-raising to 14,000, after an initial bet from a player in early position. Luke Brabin was in the cut off, and elected to move all in for his remaining 65,500 in chips. It folded back around to Marsland in the hijack, who counted out the bet, and placed it in the middle.
Brabin: 
Marsland: 
The board wouldn't help Marsland, as it ran out 
to give Brabin a much needed double up.

Can You Hit Anymore!
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
The hand started with Sam Khouiss opening to 7,000, before Amanda De Cesare moved all in from the cut off for her remaining 38,000 in chips. Dale Marsland casually called from the small blind, prompting Khouiss to get out of the pot.
Marsland: 
De Cesare: 
The cards were tabled, and De Cesare would need a lot of help to stay in the tournament. And that’s exactly what she got. The board ran out 
to see her hit not one, but two different full houses to secure the pot.

Mason Slipping
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
The chip leader heading into Day 2 is slowly slipping as the day progresses. Ashley Mason was involved in another hand, losing some more chips.
The hand started with the player under the gun opening to 5,000. The action folded around Mason in the small blind who re-raised to 12,200. His opponent called, and both saw the flop fall 
. Mason bet out 8,500 which was met with a min-raise to 17,000. He called as the 
came on the turn. Both players checked, and again on the river, when the 
was placed on the table.
Mason’s opponent tabled for top pair, which was good enough to win the hand.

Carlton Takes Another from Benoit
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
The action was caught with the board reading 
. Benjamin Benoit had bet out 25,000 in chips and the decision was on Adam Carlton. He thought for a minute before making the call as both players saw the 
fall on the river. Benoit again bet out 45,000 in chips, as he buried his head into his hands. Carlton went into the tank for a few minutes before announcing all in for around 200,000 in chips, resulting in Benoit mucking his cards.
Benoit has dropped down to 70,000 in chips, as Carlton moves up to 310,000 in chips.

Tran Takes One Out
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Trung Tran opened the pot with a 5,000 chip bet which was met with a quick call from the player on the button. The small blind looked down at his cards and announced all in, committing his last 7,000 into the middle. Tran wanted to raise, but knew he couldn’t. He made the call as did the other player in the hand.
The flop came 
and Tran continued with a bet of 6,000. It forced a fold from his opponent and both live players tabled their cards.
Tran: 
Opponent: 
Tran had flopped trip jacks, and when it ran out the and 
, it was all over for his opponent.
