Andrew Topakas Makes a Good Read

The button opened for a 1,200 raise and Andrew Topakas called from the small blind. The flop was Q-Q-9. Topakas let for 1,500, the button raised to 4,500 and Topakas called. The turn was a K and both players checked. The river was a ten. Topakas checked, the button moved all in for 5,000 and Topakas called.

The button turned up 8-8, for a pair of eights. Topakas showed {8-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and took it down. His stack is now north of 25,000.

Tony Hachem Eliminated

Tony Hachem
Tony Hachem
Tony Hachem moved all in from the cutoff and was called by a middle position player and Andrew Topakas in the big blind. The flop was {Q-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Topakas led for 3,000, inducing a fold from the middle position player. Topakas and Hachem then turned up their hands.

Hachem {A-Spades}{K-Spades}
Topakas {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Topakas flopped top pair and Hachem needed an ace, king, or jack to survive. The turn, though was the {3-Hearts} and the rived was the {2-Clubs}, sending Hachem to the rail.

After the hand, Topakas was up to 27,000.

Shane Beckham Eliminated

Beckham = Busto
Beckham = Busto
Shane Beckham and BoDog Ari butted heads on two hands. On the first, Beckkham held {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and flopped a set on a {Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop. There was action aplenty between the two players. Bodog Ari held {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. The turn was the {4-Diamonds} giving more outs to Bodog Ari. Unfortunately for Beckham the river was the {6-Diamonds}, and therefore BoDog Ari took down a 20,000 chip pot.

Beckham was left short stacked and not happy.

Beckham busted out on the next hand when his {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} lost to BoDog Ari's K-K. The board ran out {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{6-Hearts} and Beckham hit the rail.
