Uwe Brauckhoff Eliminated in 15th Place ($4,371)

Ulf Martensson limped in under the gun. Uwe Brauckhoff moved all in from middle position and action folded back around to Martensson, who made the call. The players showed:

Martensson: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Brauckhoff: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Martensson missed his overcards but rivered his flush as the board came {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Uwe Brauckhoff was eliminated in 15th place and will take home $4,371 for his strong finish here today.

Roger Spets Crippled

We caught up to this hand on the turn. Paul Adams was all in against Roger Spets with the board reading {J-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Spets held two pair with {9-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} but was drawing dead against the {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} of Adams. Paul Adams doubled up on the hand and has just under the average stack with 81,000. Roger Spets is on the short stack with 28,000.

No Music In the Money

A player was just reminded that personal electronics such as MP3 players and cell phones are prohibited once the players reach the money. This rule has become fairly standard amongst most big buy-in tournaments.

Isabelle Mercier Eliminated in 16th Place ($4,371)

James Honeybone opened for a raise to 10,000 from under-the-gun. Isabelle Mercier moved all in for 40,000 from the big blind. Honeybone made the call and the players showed:

Honeybone: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}
Mercier: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop came {A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts} giving Honeybone a stranglehold on the hand. Mercier would need running eights or running sixes to stay alive. She got neither and was eliminated in 16th place earning $4,371 for her efforts. James Honeybone now sits behind a chipstack of 170,000.
