Webb Busts Kempson

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

They continue to fall quickly with Corey Kempson being the next player that ended up on the rail. He shoved for his last 65,000 with the {A-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Reece Webb called out of the big blind with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. The door card was the {8-Diamonds} to create a glimpse of hope, but it was followed straight away by the {9-Hearts}. The rest of the board ran out {6-Spades}{J-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and that was it for Kempson.

Fraser Makes The Call

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Michael Fraser called a 27,000-chip Walter Treccarichi bet on a {6-Spades}{A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts} board to the turn and checked the {7-Spades} river.

Treccarichi fired again, making it 80,000. Fraser spent a good minute thinking about it before making the call with the {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

He was right, Treccarichi had missed his flush with the {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

Mason and Lee Double

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Ashley Mason got the remainder of his stack in with the {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} on the {10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs} turn. There were about 70,000 chips in the pot and Don Mishra looked him up out of the small blind with the {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} only to see the river blank.

Over on table 35, Alex Lee four-bet shoved from the cutoff for 137,000 and Michael Fraser called from the button after having three-bet to 36,000.

Lee: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Fraser: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The board {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Spades} gave Lee a flush and he doubled up.

Mason Feels the Payne

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

On the flop {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades}, Mark Payne bet 20,000 from the small blind and Ashley Mason called in the big blind. On the {8-Diamonds} turn it was 32,500 to go and again Mason called before the {2-Diamonds} river triggered another value bet by Payne. Mason called it off and mucked when he was shown the {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}.

Spiess Eliminated

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Hubert Spiess lost most but not all of his chips in a big hand against Michael Frasers full house and then doubled up a tiny stack. Just now he was all in for only 13,500 from the big blind. Stewart Davidson and Robert Spano called before the former then announced all in after the flop {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Spades}.

Spano folded and Spiess turned over his {5-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, while Davidson had {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for two pair. It was all over after the {6-Hearts} turn and the meadningless {7-Diamonds} river just a formality.

Nguyen Loses; Maximum Payne

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Mark Payne and Minh Nguyen got into a preflop raising war that eventually saw Nguyen shove in for almost 150,000 and Payne call it off with the {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

Nguyen was racing for his tournament life with the {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, but could not hold on a {10-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{a-Hearts} run out that made Payne not one, but two bigger pairs.

Payne now has a massive lead 11 handed.
