Smith Doubles With Nut Flush; Then Eliminates Davies

Level 15 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

There was 80,000 in the pot and action was three ways.

The flop came {k-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} and action checked to Dan Smith who was under the gun. Smith bet 15,000 and action folded to Michael Soyza who raised to 65,000. Smith called.

Action checked through on the {9-Spades} turn.

The river was the {9-Diamonds} and Soyza led out for 20,000. Smith raised to 124,000 leaving a single 1,000 chip behind. Soyza thought for a bit before making the call. He was left disappointed when Smith turned over {a-Spades}{5-Spades} for the nut flush which left Soyza short.

The next hand Seth Davies raised to 24,000 from the hijack. Action folded to Smith who moved all in for 135,000 effective. Davies made the call for his tournament life.

Seth Davies: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Dan Smith: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

It was a flip but Davies flopped a flush draw as it came {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} giving him plenty of outs. However they didn't come as the turn came the {3-Spades} and the river the {5-Diamonds} to eliminate him from the tournament.

Addamo Showers Heath and Silva

Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Shortly after Ben Heath was eliminated by Michael Addamo, Pablo Silva shoved all in for 104,000 from the hijack. Addamo was in the small blind and stuck out a stack of big chips for an isolating raise which folded everyone else out.

Silva was up a creek as he had the {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} against the {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} of Addamo and the board would leave him without a paddle as it ran out {6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to eliminate him as Addamo further strengthened his stack.

Daniel Dvoress
Daniel Dvoress

Daniel Dvoress raised to 20,000 from the cutoff before Sam Greenwood three-bet to 55,000 from the small blind. Dvoress four-bet all in for 128,000 and Greenwood snap called.

Daniel Dvoress: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Sam Greenwood: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

It was a classic flip with Dvoress at risk. The flop was good for him as it came {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. However the {a-Spades} changed everything as it put Greenwood way in front. The river was the {3-Clubs} which ensured Dvoress's elimination from the tournament.

Danny Tang: {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
