Keefe Continues to Slip

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

This orbit is one that Oliver Keefe is going to wish he never sat down to play as he has seen his 300,000-plus stack dive down to just 46,000.

Facing a 35,500-chip all in, Keefe made the call with his {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} to be up against {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{A-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} to see Keefe flushed once again to double his opponent.

Sowers Flushed to Chip Lead

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Oliver Keefe opened to 2,000 preflop only to have Mike Sowers three-bet to 7,000. Keefe made the call as the {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{A-Spades} flop was greeted by a 5,000-chip continuation-bet from Sowers.

Keefe check-called as the {5-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and he proceeded to check-call a 20,000-chip bet as the {10-Diamonds} landed on the river.

Keefe checked and Sowers moved all in for 112,300 with Keefe making the call tabling his {5-Spades}{4-Spades} for a flopped flush.

Sowers however had him beat with his {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} as Keefe slumped down to {5-Hearts} while Sowers soared to 345,000.

Mizzi Sticks to His Word

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

From the cutoff seat, Sorel Mizzi raised to 4,500. Lee Nelson reraised all in from the big blind to 31,100. Before Mizzi knew the count he stated that if it was over 30,000, he'd fold. It was indeed over 30,000 and Mizzi did just that, he folded.

"I have over 30, too," said Eric Assadourian from across the table. "Can you raise my blind, too?"

Aces Over Kings Net White a Massive One

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Gavin Griffin raised from middle position to 4,500 before action folded to Michael White in the cutoff seat. He three-bet to 9,000. After the button folded, the small blind moved all in for right around 110,000 in chips -- a nice, big shove. The big blind and Griffin folded before White snap-called the shove and tabled the {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}. His opponent had shoved with the {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

The flop, turn and river ran out {Q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} and White won the pot and it was a massive one. He collected the chips and now has 342,000. That's good enough for second place right behind chip leader Sorel Mizzi.

Lew to 100k

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Jarred Solomon looking up Randy Lew

With a raise in middle position to 4,700, Jarred Solomon made the call from the button before Randy Lew three-bet the small blind to 11,600.

The original raiser folded but Solomon made the call as the {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop was greeted by checks from both players.

The turn of the {K-Hearts} saw Lew lead for 10,500, and after a few moments of thought, Solomon made the call to see the {J-Spades} produced on the river.

An emotionless Lew dropped in a bet of 30,000 to put Solomon in the tank for over four minutes before he eventually chose to fold his hand while slipping to 230,000. Lew on the other hand collected the pot to move to 100,000 in chips.
