Ace O'Brien Trumps King Jazz

Level 13 : 1,200/24,000, 400 ante

Jazz Mathers had that awful roller coaster of emotions that comes with first happily looking down at {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and then looking up and seeing the dreaded {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} of an opponent. On this occasion it was Paul O'Brien with the pocket rockets.

When the chips first went in the middle, the stacks looked pretty even and when the dealer spread out a {4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} board, it was time to count down the stacks and see if Mathers was elimianted.

O'Brien's stack was counted first. He had 92,200.

Mathers' was counted next and he had... 92,200.

With that, O'Brien is one of the larger stacks in the room, while Mathers wont be making back-to-back final tables.

Huang Continues to Fall

Level 13 : 1,200/24,000, 400 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Bryan Huang’s bad run continues as he battled in the blinds with Yanji Ge.

The action folded to Huang who completed from the small blind and Ge checked his option in the big. The flop fell {K-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} both players checked the flop and the turn of {J-Diamonds} but Huang bet 3,500 after seeing the river {5-Hearts}. However, he was raised by Ge to 8,500 and Huang made the quick call.

At showdown, Ge showed {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for two pair and Huang mucked his hand. Huang has moved down to 25,000 in chips whilst Ge moves close to 110,000.

Huang's Surge Halted

Level 13 : 1,200/24,000, 400 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Bryan Huang has just taken a hit to his stack.

We arrived to the table with Huang holding {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} and his opponent who was at risk holding {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}.

The race was on and the flop came {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{K-Spades} putting Huang way ahead, the turn {J-Hearts} helped no one but the cruel river card of the {Q-Clubs} made Huang’s hand second best and gave his opponent the double.

The loss has halted Huang’s late surge but he still has 40,000.

Handy River For Voegele

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Octavian Voegele started the day in second place and he continues to grow his stack after giving his opponent a brutal beat.

We arrived to the table with an all-in player holding the {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} against Voegele’s {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} on the {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop. The turn fell a {Q-Diamonds} but the brutal river card of the {10-Hearts} put Voegele ahead and sent his opponent to the rail with another bad beat story to tell. Voegele has now moved up to 260,000 in chips.

Huang's Dream Double

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

PokerStars Team Pro Bryan Huang has just doubled up after finding himself in a dream spot.

After arriving to the table with Huang all in preflop, he showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}, which had his opponent crushed who held the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

There is always a sweat though as the flop fell {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} to give Huang's opponent a gutshot draw.

However, the {10-Diamonds} and {2-Diamonds} on the turn and river were kind to Huang as he moves up to a comfortable 70,000.

Guerin's Stack On The Incline

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Didier Guerin's stack continues to head in the right direction.

The most recent chips to go to Guerin saw him eliminate a player. It started with Guerin opening with a small raise from the cut off before the eventual all-in player three-bet to 14,500. Back on Guerin and he moved all in with the player calling off his stack of around 40,000 in total.

When the cards were turned over it was revealed Guerin was dominating with his {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} against {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

The board ran out {8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}{q-Clubs} and one player was on the rail, while Guerin moved up to 170,000.
