Obrestad Runs Good

Annette Obrestad is catching all the right cards today. She wound up putting a player all in before the flop. Obrestad had {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} and was up against {A-Clubs} {A-Spades}. It was no problem for her to find a matching king on a flop of {9-Spades} {7-Spades} {K-Hearts}. The board safely ran out {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} after that, giving Obrestad the chips and the win. She's up to 145,000.

Tony G Busto

Tony G eliminated
Tony G eliminated
There's no joy on media row -- another one of our own has fallen. Tony "G" Guoga has been particularly unlucky today, so it's par for his day that he was unlucky one last time. Tony moved all in preflop for 17,000 after an opening raise to 2,500 from Zach Gruneberg. Gruneberg, who has amassed chips during this level at an amazing rate, made the call with {K-Spades} {Q-Spades}. He was raising Tony G's {3-Hearts} {3-Spades}. The board was all clear for Tony by the turn, {10-Hearts} {5-Spades} {9-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}, but a tournament-killing {Q-Diamonds} hit the river to send him to the rail.

Gruneberg started the day with 23,550 chips and is now on approximately 150,000.

Blessadourian!

Eric Assadourian was all in from the button for his last 12,100 and Martin Comer made the call in the big blind.

Assadourian held {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} but was dominated by Comer's {Q-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. The first first cards fell {4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Assadourian quipped, "Want to chop it now?" as the river fell the {10-Hearts} to give Assadourian the flush and yet another double-up. He's up to 28,000 with Comer slipping to 68,000.

Chronis Reclaims Some Chips

Sometimes poker is easy -- flop the nuts and get paid. Chris Chronis flopped the nuts with {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} on a {K-Hearts} {k-Spades} {Q-Spades} flop. On the turn {2-Hearts} his lone opponent check-called a bet of 15,000. Chronis then moved all in after his opponent checked the {4-Hearts} and was called. His opponent did not have the nuts; he had unimproved {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} and was sent home before the first break with a bad beat story.

Chronis now has 160,000 chips.

Jarred "FlopNutsOnYou" Graham Doubles

Jarred "FlopNutsOnYou" Graham has just doubled through to give himself a slight amount of breathing space. In a battle of the blinds Graham got it all in preflop against Zac Fellows. Graham's {k-Spades}{j-Spades} in a commanding position against the {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of Fellows.

It wouldn't stay that way. The flop brought a {10-Clubs} in the door with the {a-Spades}{3-Hearts} to put Fellows in front, and leave Graham teetering on the brink of elimination. The {2-Diamonds} turn was no help, but like a gift from above the {j-Clubs} spiked the river to save Graham and push him up to 38,000 chips.
