Cohen Doubles with Set

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Freedman had :{j-}{10-} and was unable to hit the running cards she needed, doubling up Cohen in the process.

Suzuki's Ladies Let Him Down

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

"Payout!" was overheard and Patrick Suzuki was standing up. The board read {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, and his {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} on the button was no good against big blind Wendy Freedman's {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, sending him home in 19th place.

There is no redraw for the final two tables in this event, though chip counts for each table will be provided shortly.

Keeline Gets There To Bust Shenkin

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ben Keeline
Ben Keeline

Adam Shenkin opened to 20,000 from the hijack and Ben Keeline went all in from the big blind. Shenkin called off his remaining chips, which were less than what Keeline had.

Adam Shenkin: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Ben Keeline: {a-Spades}{9-Clubs}

Shenkin was a big favorite prior to the flop, but the runout came {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} to give Keeline aces and nines and leave him dry on chips to finish in 20th place in the tournament.

Freedman Finds a Double

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Wendy Freedman
Wendy Freedman

Wendy Freedman was in the process of raking in a huge pot with her winning hand of {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} tabled on a board of {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}{q-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Hearts}.

"I got it in bad," she said. The victim was Barb Visher, who had {a-Spades}{3-Spades} and saw her nut flush succumb to a rivered full house by Freedman.

With the pot, Freedman finds herself back near the top of the leader board, and Visher still has one of the top stacks in the room as well, despite the lost pot.

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Samuel Uhlmann: {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Bobby Sanoubane: {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Uhlmann found himself with two live cards up against Sanoubane's ace-high before the flop. The flop came {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, taking two more of Uhlmann's outs away. The turn and river fell {5-Spades}{6-Hearts}, sealing his fate for the tournament as the pot was sent Sanoubane's way.

Voorhees Busts Pupillo

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Nick Pupillo shoved all in from the hijack and action folded around to Matt Voorhees in the small blind, who announced he was all in over the top of Pupillo. Samuel Uhlmann was in the big blind and got out of their way, making it time to turn up the cards for the runout.

Nick Pupillo: {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Matt Voorhees: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

Pupillo was in need of pairing up or better in order to stay in the tournament. The flop came {a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, leaving him drawing insanely slim to either running eights or running nines. The turn {j-Hearts} left him drawing dead as the river {4-Diamonds} fell to make the hand official as Voorhees raked in the pot, bringing him close to the half-million mark in chips.

Zoller Doubles Through Pupillo

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Nate Zoller
Nate Zoller

There was around 90,000 in the pot on a board of {10-Hearts}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts}{a-Spades} and Nate Zoller had checked from the small blind to Nick Pupillo, who was on the button and announced he was all in. The bet size was for the effective 117,000 that Zoller had behind.

After two minutes in the tank, Zoller called.

Nate Zoller: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Nick Pupillo: {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Pupillo was astonished to see Zoller take as long as he did with a hand so strong. Zoller held as the river was a brick and he mentioned as he raked in his newly acquired chips that one thing that crossed his mind in the middle of his thought process was that his decision would have probably been a snap-call for every other person at the table. Nonetheless, he finds himself back in comfortable position, while Pupillo now becomes one of the shortest stacks in the room.
