Sahbudak Eliminates Crenan; Lee Spikes River to Triple

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Azad Sahbudak limped in from middle position and Jesse Crenan went all-in with a stack of about 80,000. The action folded to Jason Lee in the small blind, who re-shoved a stack of 27,000. Sahbudak tanked when the action came back around to him and eventually put in a reluctant call with both opponents covered.

Jason Lee: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Jesse Crenan: {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Azad Sahbudak: {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

"C'mon, man! How do you not fold?" Crenan whined when he saw he was dominated.

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for Lee to spike a ten on the river to triple up, while the side pot went to Sahbudak and Crenan was eliminated.

Trips for Raio

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nick Raio opened to 12,000 on the button and Edward Mroczkowski defended out of the big blind.

Mroczkowski checked on the flop of {4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{k-Hearts} and Raio checked back. Mroczkowski led out for 12,000 on the {3-Hearts} turn and Raio called.

Mroczkowski then checked on the {k-Spades} river and Raio bet 40,000. Mroczkowski folded, and Raio showed he had it by flipping over {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} for trip kings.

Dickie Malone Pulls $50K Bounty

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

The alluring and elusive $50,000 bounty is no longer in play as it has been claimed by Dickie Malone.

Malone had a good feeling when he walked up to pull his bounty as it was the 22nd bounty pull of the day, which just so happens to be Malone's lucky number.

Malone slowly opened the envelope and peeled the open the folded piece of paper, slowly revealing a "50" followed by a comma and series of zeroes.

"HAAAA! I'm serious!" Malone yelled to let the other players know he really won the big one.

Malone was ecstatic about drawing the $50K envelope, while none of the remaining players seemed too thrilled about the biggest bounty being removed from play.

"When he showed me that number ... it's my racing number, baseball number, basketball number ... I said 'this has got to be it,'" Malone said.

Russell Quick
Russell Quick

Picking up the action on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} on the feature table, Russell Quick led out for 20,000 from the small blind and David Moore called out of the big blind. Overall Day 1 chipleader Jason Cummings then raised to 105,000 and only Quick called.

Quick checked on the {k-Diamonds} turn and Cummings bet 250,000. Quick moved all-in for 590,000 and Cummings quickly called with a slightly bigger stack.

Russell Quick: {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Jason Cummings: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

It was a massive cooler as Cummings had flopped top set but Quick had flopped the nut straight. The board didn't pair on the {4-Diamonds} river and Quick doubled up to take a huge chip lead, while Cummings was left with crumbs.
