Kelly Eliminates Quoss

On a flop of {5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, Fabian Quoss moved all in from the small blind for 2,400, Dan Kelly called, and Tony Sama got out of the way from the cutoff.

Showdown

Kelly{A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Quoss{Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Kelly was ahead with his ace high, which is where he stayed as the {4-Hearts} turn and {2-Hearts} river failed to help Quoss, who hit the rail in 17th place.

Reiman Tumbles to Finish in 16th Place

On a board reading {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, Mike Watson bet 7,200 and Ty Reiman made the call. When the {4-Spades} appeared on the river, Watson moved all in for 35,000 and Reiman called. Watson rolled over {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for two pair with an ace kicker, which was good as Reiman dropped to just 2,100.

Not long after, Reiman moved all in under the gun for 1,900 and was called by Jonathan Karamalikis in the big blind.

Showdown

Reiman{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Karamalikis{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Reiman was ahead, and even improved his position on the {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop. Unfortunately for him, the improbable {5-Hearts} spiked on the turn to give Karamalikis a straight. Reiman still had out to a bigger straight, but couldn't catch as the {8-Clubs} appeared on the river. Reiman was eliminated on the hand in 16th place.

Jordanou Downed in 13th Place

Dan Kelly opened from the hijack only to have Billy Jordanou move all in from the cutoff for around 12,000. The blinds got out of the way and Kelly made the call.

Showdown

Kelly{K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Jordanou{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}

It was a flip, but not after the flop came down {K-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Kelly had paired his king to take a commanding lead. Jordanou seemed to know his fate was sealed as he collected his things and rose from his chair. The {A-Spades} turn was no help to Jordanou, and as soon as the {3-Clubs} was put out on the river, he made a hasty exit from the tournament floor.

Kings for Pedley

Michael Pedley opened from under the gun for 2,600 and received a call from Mike Watson on the button. Watson proceeded to call bets of 4,300 on the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop and 3,500 on the {6-Diamonds} turn, bringing about the {6-Diamonds} river. This time Medley fired out 7,000, which proved enough to get Watson off the hand. Medley then showed {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} for a full house.
