Grammer Bests Kastle

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The board was all but rushed away and Casey Kastle headed to the payout desk. The Slovenian three-bet shoved for around 140,000 with the {A-Spades}{2-Spades} and initial raiser Ross Grammer called with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} to stay ahead and reduce the field by one.

Ajez Picks Off Koren

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Artur Koren opened on the button and got action from both blinds. After unknown flop action, he bet 78,000 on a board of {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{a-Clubs}. Big blind Najeem Ajez called and the river was a {10-Hearts}. Ajez checked and Koren bet big: 275,000. Ajez called and Koren immediately mucked. Ajez slapped down {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}.

Ho Doubles Through Hachem

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Duy Ho: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Anthony Hachem: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Tchong Busts on the Feature Table

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Michael Tchong in the cutoff and Joshua Abady on the button clashed with the latter being the player at risk with {K-Spades}{J-Spades}. Tchong was marginally ahead with {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and the board came {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} to give Abady a straight.

Tchong was all in for 6,000 soon after and Abady forced out Arne Ruge on the {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} turn with a bet of 20,000. Tchong turned over his {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Abady had the {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a gutshot and straight draw. Sure enough the {8-Clubs} river improved Abady to a straight and Tchong was gone.

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Harry Demetriou
Harry Demetriou

Ben Richardson got most of Harry Demetriou's chips in a flip and he just got the rest in a dominating spot. This time, it was {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} against {k-Spades}{j-Spades} and the board came jack-free to send Demetriou to payouts.

Lubana and Charette Depart

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Duff Charette
Duff Charette

Prior to the elimination of Jamie Sadlier, Gurpreet Lubana had ran with ace-king into pocket aces to depart.

Duff Charette followed soon after when he open-shoved for 121,000 from the cutoff and was called by Chen An Lin in the big blind.

Duff Charette: {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Chen An Lin: {K-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop sent Charette in desperate mode and it was all over on the {8-Hearts} turn, making the {3-Hearts} river a formality.

With that elimination, the next table was supposed to break but there was still action going on. A raise and a call were followed by a three-et to 56,000 by Beau Palmer on the button and Johan Schumacher shoved out of the small blind. It folded back to Palmer, who asked for a count, and reluctantly folded to the shove for 488,000 in total.

Engel Eliminates Stonehouse

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

David Stonehouse pushed all in for 88,000 and Ari Engel called in the small blind.

Ari Engel: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
David Stonehouse: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

The {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop put Stonehouse in a big hole, and the {k-Hearts} led him to fist bump Engel in resignation as the {4-Diamonds} hit.

Zhang Wrestles with River Raise

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Bobby Zhang raised to 16,000 from under the gun. Saijes Mundadan called on the button and Ross Grammer called in the big blind.

The three players checked the {10-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop and Grammer checked to Zhang on the {j-Hearts} turn. Zhang bet 24,000 and Mundadan called, with Grammer folding.

The river was the {3-Diamonds}. Zhang bet 55,000 and Mundadan raised to 130,000. Zhang went deep into the tank, mumbling all sorts about what Mundadan could be raising with.

"Are you raising with queen-jack on the river?" he said. Eventually the clock was called and Zhang let the clock run all the way down before folding.

Shimizu showed {a-}{q-} while Del Vecchio took down the pot with {3-}{3-}.
