Largest Pot of the Tournament Gets Chopped

Barry Greenstein raised to 10,000 and Gus Hansen called.

The flop came down {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} and Hansen checked. Greenstein bet 14,000 and Hansen called.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and Hansen checked. Greenstein bet 30,000 and Hansen moved all in. Greenstein quickly called and the largest pot of the tournament was created. The hands were revealed and things were rather uneventful after all the build up.

Hansen: {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Greenstein: {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}

The two players would chop the pot and pulled their chips back as the river card was dealt a blank to officially complete the action.

"Tom Deserves A Bike."

Dwan eliminated
Dwan eliminated
Tony G opened the button and Tom Dwan reraised the pot all-in. The G called.

Tony G: {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
Dwan: {Q-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}

Board: {3-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {5-Spades} {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds}

And with that, Durrrr was out. Tony G dashed off and grabbed a special Party Poker bike and tried in vain to get Dwan to ride it out of the studio.

He came back to the table and said, "He won't ride the bike, he needs a trike."

Tony asked all the players on the table if they'd ride the bike if he busted them and then said he'd ride the bike himself if/when he gets knocked out.

Lisandro Next to the Rail

Jeff Lisandro has been eliminated, he made his move on a {3-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs} flop with {8-Hearts} {7-Hearts} but ran into Gus Hansen's {10-Spades} {8-?} and couldn't spike on the {9-?} turn or {9-?} river.

We're down to two tables of eight players, it's certainly not slow.

Graham Busts

Tony Bloom raised to 10,000 and Jarred "FlopNutsOnYou" Graham reraised to 36,000, leaving himself with 15,000 behind. Bloom moved all in and Graham made the call.

When the cards were turned up, Graham revealed a dominated {A-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}. The hand dominating his was Bloom's {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts}.

The flop paired both players, but didn't change things when the {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} fell. The turn card pushed Graham further out the door. The final card on the board was the {K-Hearts} and Graham was sent packing. Bloom moved up to 180,000.

John Juanda has been eliminated
John Juanda has been eliminated
We just lost John Juanda, who was eliminated at the hands of Gus Hansen. Hansen fired the river on an unknown board to put Juanda all in. After using both his time breaks, Juanda tossed in his last chips, but was shown two pair by Hansen and couldn't beat it. He mucked his hand and exited to the rail.

Sampoerna Eliminated

Michael Sampoerna was all in preflop from the small blind with {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}. He raised to 12,000 before Roberto Romanello reraised all in from the big blind and Sampoerna called.

Romanello revealed the lesser of the two hands with {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} and the two were off to the flop. Sampoerna was the player at risk in the hand.

The board ran out {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {K-Clubs} and Romanello made trip kings to sent Sampoerna to the rail.
