Elliot Gets There to Double Through O'Kearney

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

Dara O'Kearney raised on the button and Donald Elliot three-bet all in for around eight big blinds. O'Kearney called with {a-}{q-} and was up against Elliot's {10-}{9-}

The {q-}{q-}{j-} suited O'Kearney and although the {6-} turn was a brick, the river was a {k-} giving Elliot a straight and doubling up.

Black Bubbles Moneymaker's Road to PSPC 2020 Dublin

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

Andy Black opened and Victor Antoci raised to 41,000 on the button. Black four-bet all in for 207,000 and Antoci tank-called.

With hands at all other tables finished, Black showed {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and was racing against Antoci's {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Black didn't seem confident, getting to his feet, assembling his things, putting his jacket on and slinging his bag over his shoulder.

The board came {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Black headed for the exit, the remaining 103 players all in the money.

Moneymaker Still Going Strong

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

Up on the feature table, and now joined by Irish poker veteran Padraig Parkinson, Chris Moneymaker has moved up to just under 800,000 in chips. After eliminating Marius Chiritoiu earlier, he's now added the scalp of Chris Knight when Knight shoved a {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{q-Hearts} board with {6-Hearts}{3-Spades} only for Moneymaker to show up with {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}.

The river was the {7-Spades} and Moneymaker added another elimination to his day.
