Gruissem Reaches 45k

Like an Andy Roddick first serve, Philipp Gruissem played the following hand fast...

We caught up with the action on the flop, with the board showing {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. Gruissem fired a 1,450 bullet and was called by David Bach.

The turn brought the {Q-Diamonds} and Gruissem fired again, this time making it 3,700 to go. Bach called again.

5th Street delivered the {8-Spades} and Gruissem fired yet another bullet, his biggest yet -- 5,000. Bach looked him up and Gruissem tabled {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for top pair, which was all he needed to take down the pot as Bach threw his cards into the muck.

After the hand, Bach was left with 21,100 in chips. Gruissem stacked up 45,000 in chips with the win.

Opponents In Streif

Stefan Streifeneder has emerged as one of the bigger stacks in today's flight. Streifendeder (we're not making that up) has 98,000 in chips to his name.

He collected most of them after making an opening raise and calling a preflop three-bet with {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. The flop came {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and all the chip went in against an opponent with {A-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.

The board blanked sending 70,000 chips to Streifeneder. We'll keep you updated on his progress.

Perfect Timing for Pierre

Pierre Aoukar and his opponent, Robert Damelian got all their chips in the middle after a preflop raising war. Aoukar held aces, and Damelian kings. The board fell {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, and Damelian made his exit. Aoukar, on the other hand is now flourishing with about 65,000.

Nathan Stacks Some Chips

Rayan Nathan made it 1,200 to go preflop and was called by the cut off and the big blind.

The flop fell {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}.

The big blind checked and Nathan fired off a bet of 2,400. Both the cut off and the big blind folded and Nathan scooped in the pot.

He has lost a few chips from his 100,000 mark, but after this pot he's at 68,000.

Duplicity

Ever wonder how someone would play a hand in your shoes?

Two guys - Mile Kristanoski and Ray Ellis, from the same hometown - Perth, just so happen to be sitting on the same table. They recently tangled in a pot with an interesting ending.

Preflop, Kristanoski made it 1,400 to go with Ellis making the call.

The flop came {k-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts}. Both players checked. The {9-Clubs} hit the turn and Kirstanoski fired 1,700 with Ellis calling again.

The river was the {5-Spades} and both players checked.

Now here's where things go weird. Kristanoski showed {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, with Ellis tabling {Q-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

Baby Got Bach

John Myung was just sent home by 2009 WSOP $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. champion David Bach.

We caught up to the action on the turn, with the board showing {Q-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}. Bach announced all in and Myung made the call for less:

Bach: {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Myung: {K-Spades}{2-Spades}

The river then delivered Myung's fatal blow -- the {J-Hearts} -- which gave Bach a flush to send Myung packing.

After the hand, Bach stacked up 31,000 in chips.

Not a De-Bokkel

A player in the highjack raised it to 1,225. Yuri Bokkel made it 2,800 on the button and his opponent made the call.

The flop came down {j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and the player in the highjack check-called Bokkel's bet of 3,500.

The two checked the {8-Hearts} turn and went to the river.

The {4-Spades} fell on the river and again Bokkel's opponent check-called when he bet 7,000.

Bokkel turned up {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and his opponent threw his cards in the muck.

Sixes Spell the End for Karamalikis; Johansson Takes Chip Lead

Jonathan 'xMONSTERxDONGx' Karamalikis just lost a race against new overall chip leader Andreas Johansson which resulted in his elimination from the main event.

An unidentified player opened the pot with a raise to 1,100, Johansson called and when the action reached Karamalikis, he moved all in for a total of 6,125. Both of Karamalikis' opponents made the call, creating a sidepot heading into the flop: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}.

The original preflop raiser then fired a 6,100 bet that was called by Johansson, sending the action to the turn -- {Q-Spades}. Here, the action was checked to Johansson who fired a hefty bet of 15,000, prompting the unknown third party to fold, setting up the following showdown between Karamalikis and Johansson:

Karamalikis: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Johansson: {A-?}{Q-?}

The river then blanked, {2-Hearts}, and just like that, Karamalikis joined the rail.

After the hand, we counted Johansson at 125,000 in chips, which puts him, for the time being anyway, at the top of our leaderboard.

Ling Busto

Peter Ling has gone the way of the wind after being eliminated.

Ling shipped it in with {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and was called by {k-Spades}{Q-Spades}. Unfortunately he was outdrawn on the {Q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop. The {5-Spades} turn and {4-Spades} river failed to save him.

David Docherty Getting Short

We caught up to the action on the turn with the board reading {2-Spades}{4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. David Docherty tossed out a bet of 7,200 only to be called by his opponent who was UTG.

The river was the {3-Hearts} and after Docherty checked, his opponent moved all in with a stack that had Docherty well covered. The young Scotsman than went deep into the think tank, turning his baseball cap backwards while he thought. Finally, after someone at the table called the clock Docherty released his hand. He is down to about 20,000.
