Nolan Burton Eliminated in 11th Place ($3,280)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Nolan Burton
Nolan Burton

For the fourth consecutive hand, a player has been eliminated here at HPT Ameristar Vicksburg, sending us to our preliminary final table of ten in quick succession.

Nolan Burton three-bet shoved last 115,000 in chips in preflop from the small blind, and found himself in a pickle once original raiser Yousef Saleh made the call on the button.

Nolan Burton: {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Yousef Saleh: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

Saleh flopped the nut flush draw to go with his aces on the {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop, and although he turned said flush with the {4-Diamonds}, Burton still had four outs to survive, as he turned two pair. The {q-Clubs} river bricked off, and the final ten players are now at one table. Stay tuned for a seat draw, as well as updated chip counts.

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Wyatt Boothe
Wyatt Boothe

Before the dust could settle from the previous two eliminations, Wyatt Boothe was seen heading to the rail, and kindly shared the details of his final hand.

Boothe jammed for 60,000 from middle position, and JW Carter three-bet shoved for 140,000 on the button, chasing out the field.

Wyatt Boothe: {k-}{9-}
JW Carter: {a-}{a-}

Boothe had ran into aces, and the board ran out completely dry, giving us another knockout as Day 2 quickly speeds along towards the final table.

Hannah Guthrie Eliminated in 13th Place ($2,597)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Hannah Guthrie
Hannah Guthrie

Just as Jimbo Hughes was eliminated, Hannah Guthrie hit the rail, as she had jammed her last 100,000 chips with the nut flush draw on the turn, and Kip Jones looked her up with a pair of fours. Guthrie failed to improve and joined the quickly growing line at the payout desk, as the action continues in a flurry here in Vicksburg.

Jimbo Hughes Eliminated in 14th Place ($2,597)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jimbo Hughes
Jimbo Hughes

Jimbo Hughes raised to 16,000 from the cutoff, and was called by Yousef Saleh in the small blind and Nolan Burton in the big blind.

Action checked to Hughes on a {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop, and he bet 45,000. Saleh check-raised to 420,000, enough to commit both of his opponents. Burton quickly folded, and Hughes instantly called for his last 140,000.

Jimbo Hughes: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Yousef Saleh: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The table gasped as Hughes realized he had been coolered, and he couldn't hit a miracle straight flush with the {9-Spades} turn and {j-Spades} river to hit the rail.

Williams Three-Bet Jams

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Shomari Williams raised to 16,000 on the button, and JW Carter called in the big blind.

Carter checked the {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop over to Williams, who bet 18,000. Carter check-raised to 45,000, and Williams paused for a few beats before three-bet shoving, putting Carter at risk for his last 121,000. Carter flicked his hand to the muck a few moments later.

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Morgan McBrayer
Morgan McBrayer

Two hands after losing a 400k flip with her {a-}{q-} failing to improve against the {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} of Nolan Burton on a {9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} board, Morgan McBrayer had her last 20,000 at risk from the big blind against Yousef Saleh, who had opened to 21,000 from early position.

Morgan McBrayer: {10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Yousef Saleh: {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Saleh paired up on the {9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop, and McBrayer couldn't hit a ten on the {6-Clubs} turn or {8-Diamonds} river to end her run.

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jason Riesenberg
Jason Riesenberg

A few hands after a sick cooler in which Jaron Bailey turned quads with {8-}{8-} and Jason Riesenberg rivered top boat with {9-}{9-}, Riesenberg was left with just 50,000. He jammed those chips in preflop and got a call from Judge Leo Boothe.

Jason Riesenberg: {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Judge Leo Boothe: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Riesenberg was out of his seat before the {a-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} fell, and he quickly made his way to the payout desk after the {j-Hearts} turn and {8-Spades} river.
