Recent Eliminations

A defiant and stubborn short-stacked Gary Benson has just been eliminated. Karib Karib has also been eliminated in a big pot with JJ Hazan. Karib raised pre-flop and Hazan made the call from the big blind.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} and the boys then went nuts. After it was established Karib was the all-in player the cards were turned.

Karib: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.
Hazan: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}.

Hazan had hit the flop hard and when the {Q-Spades} came on the turn Karib was dead to an ace. The river blanked out and a shocked Karib had to leave the tournament area.

Hazan was stoked as he has been battling the short stack for most of the day.

The Wheel of "The Hoon"

Mick "The Hoon" raised Roy Winston on the river with the board reading {Q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Hearts}. Winston had made a 2,000 bet and "The Hoon" bumped it up another 8,000. Winston folded his hand and "The Hoon" shows {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{2-Spades} for the wheel.

Mick says "I haven't had this many chips in about three years!" - he now has around 35,000 of them!

Jeff Brown Takes Down Monster

On a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{5-Spades} Jeff Brown bets the pot of 10,000 and his opponent shoves for around 20,000 in total. Brown makes the call and the cards are shown:

Brown: {K-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}

Brown's set of queens are well in front as the turn and river come {2-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and he takes down a pot of around 50,000 chips!

Karib Karib

Karib Karib has just eliminated a player to add to his chip stack. Karib held {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Clubs} against his opponent's {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} to give Karib a straight.

Karib has been battling the short stack for most of the day, and now has over 12,000 chips as he makes a late surge for a final table berth.

Crocky Gets 3/4

Billy "The Croc" Argyros
Billy "The Croc" Argyros
With virtually all of the money in the middle prior to the flop, Billy "The Croc" and Brandon Schaefer collided in a huge pot.

Crocky: {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}
Schaefer: {6-Clubs}{A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and both players split the low but Crocky takes the high hand also with his two pair to move to around 20,000 in chips.
