Orpen Kisacikoglu
Orpen Kisacikoglu

In a hand that ran into the break, Scott Margereson raised to 8,000 from the hijack and Orpen Kisacikoglu defended his big blind.

They both checked through the {5-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop to the {8-Clubs} on the turn. Kisacikoglu bet 7,500 and Margereson called.

The river completed the board with the {k-Spades}, Kisacikoglu checked and now Margereson fired a bet of 35,000 into the pot. Kisacikoglu tanked, used a time bank card, and then made the call. Margereson tabled {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for the pair of eights on the board with the ace-kicker. Kisacikoglu showed {q-Clubs}{j-Spades} for two pair to scoop the pot.

Troyanovskiy Doubles Through Li

Level 14 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Vladimir Troyanovskiy open-shipped all in for 80,000 in the hijack and Yuan Li asked for a count from the big blind. Li made the call to put Troyanovski at risk.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Yuan Li: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The flop of {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} whiffed both players but the {a-Clubs} on the turn made things interesting. Troyanovskiy hit a pair of aces but Li picked up a straight and flush draw. The {8-Hearts} bricked out on the river and Troyanovskiy doubled up.

Margereson and Boivin Bow Out

Level 14 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

As Scott Margereson was making his way to the exit, Thomas Boivin also shoved all in for 50,000 from the cutoff. Daniel Dvoress re-shoved all in from the small blind and Kahle Burns folded his big blind.

Daniel Dvoress: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Thomas Boivin: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

Boivin was happy to see that he was in a coin flip but the {a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades} runout did not work out in his favor. With those two eliminations, the tournament is now down to 16 players and the final two tables.
