Peters Cooked Near Bubble

Level 25 : 12,500/25,000, 3,000 ante

David Peters was down to a few blinds and got them in with {a-Clubs}{9-Spades} against {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. The {4-Spades}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs} was no good for him but he found the {a-Diamonds} on the turn. However, a {j-Spades} river sent the pot to Benjamin Rolle.

The tournament is now hand-for-hand on the bubble.

Petrangelo Eliminates Ponakovs

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 3,500 ante

Nick Petrangelo raised to 60K on the button, Aleksejs Ponakovs reraised to 447K and Petrangelo jammed barely covering his 600K or so.

Ponakovs: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Petrangelo: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The {2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} was beautiful for Ponakovs as he hit his set. Running {8-Clubs} and {9-Clubs} gave Petrangelo a straight, however.

Kelopuro Eliminates Vieira

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 3,500 ante

Sami Kelopuro raised to 66K in the cutoff and Joao Vieira shoved all but a few thousand in from the button. Kelopuro set him in for just under 650K.

Vieira: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Kelopuro: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Vieira flopped some backdoor potential on {2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}. The {q-Hearts} and {7-Hearts} were bricks, though.

The tournament is once more hand-for-hand on the final table bubble.
