Just One Heart for Benton?

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a player limped in from early-middle position, Aaron Benton raised to 1,200 from the next seat. Everyone folded before he limper made the call.

The flop came down {9-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and the first player checked. Benton bet 2,475 and his opponent folded, showing that he was laying down the {Q-Hearts}. Benton showed a heart as well, the {A-Hearts}, and moved to 18,000 in chips.

Mirzikinian Out

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

On a flop of {5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} Warwick Mirzikinian called a 1,200-chip bet from his opponent as the {5-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and Mirzikinian proceeded to call a 3,500-chip bet.

The river of the {9-Hearts} was greeted by a check and Mirzikinian moved all in. His opponent made the call holding {J-}{J-}, and once Mirzikinian was sure his {7-}{4-} was no better, he made his way to the rail.

Reijmer Four-Bets and Shows

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Action folded to the player in the hijack seat and he raised to 850. The button then made it 2,000 straight before action fell on Daniel Reijmer in the small blind. He four-bet to 4,000. The big blind and original raiser both folded quickly. The button took a little bit longer with his decision and then tossed his hand in as well. Reijmer showed the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} and collected the pot. He's up to 83,000 now.

King Zmukic

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Vesko Zmukic's chip stack is looking a little healthier of late and it's all since the following hand took place.

Zmukic limped under the gun and after the player in the big blind made it 1,500, Zmukic would call and we would see a flop.

The {q-}{k-}{5-} enticed a bet of 5,000 from the big blind player and at this point Zmukic would move allin. The player called and the cards would be turned over.

Zmukic: {k-}{k-}
Opponent: {a-}{a-}

Running kings into aces can be a painful experience, but when you manage to hit a king on the flop and run into aces it can be quite pleasant.

The turn and river bricked and Zmukic doubled up to around 37,000.

Aristidou Exits

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante
Peter Aristidou
Peter Aristidou

Peter Aristidou strolled by the PokerNews blogging desk and detailed us his elimination.

Only having 6,000 remaining in his stack, being dealt {A-}{A-} under the gun, he opted to limp in a hope that someone might make a move on him.

He was wrong as two other players limped behind to see a {8-}{7-}{5-} flop. He led and a player behind him raised before Aristidou three-bet jammed all in with his opponent calling.

Aristidou: {A-}{A-}
Opponent: {8-}{7-}

A {7-} on the turn reduced Aristidou's out as a queen blanked the river to send the local tournament regular to the rail.

Kozlov Finds Two-Outer

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Martin Kozlov found himself all in for his last 7,275 against Kosta Varoxis.

Kozlov: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Varoxis: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}

The board would be spread {8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{J-Spades}{3-Spades} to see Kozlov spike his two-outer to double through to 21,000 (as there was a third player in the hand also) while Varoxis slipped to 13,500.

Quads Kings for Gray

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Someone on the rail has just detailed a hand involving Jason Gray.

Holding {K-}{K-} against an opponent's {A-}{Q-}, it would take until the turn until all the money went on a final board of {K-}{J-}{10-}{K-}(X).

With Gray's quad kings seeing him collect the double, Gray would stack the pot to amount to roughly a 53,000-chip stack.

Chronis Soaring

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

On a flop of {3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{A-Hearts} we found two players all in against Chris Chronis.

Chronis: {J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}

With both of Chronis' opponents dead, the turn and river landed the {J-Spades} and {2-Clubs} to see Chronis collect the pot to soar to 65,500 in chips.

Set for Tahtouh

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

A late piece of paper made its way to the PokerNews blogging desk from a hand that occurred just as we went to break.

On a flop of {4-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}, we found Emad Tahtouh all in holding {4-Clubs}{4-Spades} against an opponent's {K-Clubs}{k-Spades}.

The turn and river landed the {7-Spades} and {A-Clubs} to see Tahtouh double through to roughly 30,000 in chips.
