Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Joe Serock
Joe Serock

With four eliminations to go until the bubble, Joe Serock, Natasha Barbour, and Shan Huang saw a flop of {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Huang checked, Barbour checked, Serock bet 27,000, Huang called, Barbour check-raised to 62,000, Serock called, and Huang called as well.

The camera's were swooping in as the dealer flipped the {2-Hearts} on the turn. Huang checked, prompting Barbour to quickly slide a tower of 5,000-chips forward, totaling 100,000. Serock called in position, Huang folded.

On the {4-Clubs} river, Barbour checked. Serock took about twenty seconds, then moved all in for 235,000. It definitely wasn't the river Barbour wanted to see, and she slumped back in her chair. Nearly two minutes passed until she elected to fold her hand, sending the huge pot over to Serock.

[Removed:2] Makes a Huge Call

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

On a flop of {6-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts} three players saw a flop including [Removed:2] and Pierre Calamusa. Calamusa bet 20,000 and Maksoud was the only caller.

The turn was the {5-Spades} and Maksoud check-called a bet of 33,000. The river was the {9-Spades} and Maksoud checked to Calamusa who shoved all in, covering Maksoud's stack. With the impending bubble perhaps weighing heavily on his mind, Maksoud went deep into the tank before eventually calling with around eight seconds left on his clock. Calamusa showed {4-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a bluff with seven-high and Maksoud showed {q-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a queen-high flush.

Joseph Cheong Triples Up In Massive Clash

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Joseph Cheong
Joseph Cheong

Joseph Cheong opened to 11,000 from middle position, Thomas Muehloecker called on the button, and Kyle Keranen defended his big blind. The flop was {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Keranen checked. Cheong continued with 21,000, Muehloecker called, and Keranen called as well.

On the {A-Hearts} turn, it was time for fireworks. Keranen checked, Cheong checked, Muehloecker bet 56,000, Keranen called, then Cheong check-raised all in for 148,000! Muehloecker thought for a minute, then shoved all in as for 153,000. Action back on Keranen, who had to blink after witnessing the action in front of him. Getting over 4:1 on his money on a call, the American shrugged and put in the extra 100,000, creating a monstrous three-way pot.

Joseph Cheong: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Thomas Muehloecker: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Kyle Keranen: {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Cheong had a commanding lead on the hand, and the former November Niner only needed to dodge the remaining five or the clubs for a huge triple-up. The {2-Hearts} on the river was the brick Cheong needed, launching him to the top of the standings. Muehloecker, left with just one big blind, got 5,000 from Keranen for finishing second. Keranen himself was crippled as well, remaining with just five big blinds on the verge of the bubble.
