Taylor von Kriegenbergh Eliminated in... Oh, Wait!

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Taylor von Kriegenbergh one card from the exit
Taylor von Kriegenbergh one card from the exit

From middle position, Taylor von Kriegenbergh opened to 20,000, and Aaron Overton three-bet to 48,000 in postion. When it came back to von Kriegenbergh, he shoved in for about 230,000 total, and Overton's snap-call meant he likely knew he was in trouble.

Showdown
Von Kriegenbergh: {A-Spades} {5-Spades}
Overton: {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs}

The {9-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} flop was a bit of a start for the at-risk von Kriegenbergh, but he was still drawing to just two outs for his tournament life. The turn {K-Hearts} was not the five he was looking for, but the river {5-Hearts} most certainly was. Von Kriegenbergh finds his lucky trips to earn the unlikely double up, pushing his stack back up to 482,000.

Overton is back to 850,000 after having those aces go under.

A Flip of Plouffe's Coin

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Adam Geyer raised to 23,000 under the gun, and Corey Hochman and Joe Tehan both called in position. That brought the action to Philippe Plouffe, and he shoved all in for 185,000 total. Geyer re-shoved, and that successfully isolated him against Plouffe with a chance at the knockout.

Showdown
Geyer: {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs}
Plouffe: {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts}

The {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {9-Spades} flop was money in the bank for Plouffe, and the turn {A-Spades} and river {K-Hearts} secured his double up. Winning that race pushes Plouffe's stack up to 440,000.

Things are not going so well for Adam Geyer. He began play with 803,000 chips today, but that stack has been whittled down to less than half of its former self. Geyer has 385,000 chips left.

Kyle Loman Eliminated in 22nd Place ($12,000)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Kyle Loman - 22nd place
Kyle Loman - 22nd place

In a battle of the blinds, Kyle Loman got his last ~160,000 into the middle with {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs} from the small, and he ran his big(ish) ace right into the bigger {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs} of big blind Steve O'Dwyer.

The first four cards off the deck were the {9-Clubs} {5-Spades} {2-Hearts} {8-Clubs}, and a frustrated Loman toppled his remaining chips forward, spilling them onto the felt as he turned away from the table. The river {10-Spades} failed to save his tournament life, and Loman is out in 22nd place.

O'Dwyer is up to 680,000 with that knockout, and we have 21 players left.

Tehan Gets Geyer

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Adam Geyer was the preflop raiser under the gun, and Joe Tehan called from the button to go heads up.

The flop brought {A-Spades} {4-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}, and Geyer led out with 42,000 chips. Tehan clicked it back to 84,000, and Geyer made the call. Both players check-checked the {5-Diamonds} turn, and the {10-Spades} river drew another leading bet from Geyer, 105,000 this time. Tehan made the call with 105 yellow chips, and Geyer tabled {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}. It was no good; Tehan flipped up {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs} to take the pot with two pair.

Tehan - 680,000
Geyer - 575,000

Eric Froehlich Eliminated in 23rd Place ($12,000)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Eric Froehlich - 23rd place
Eric Froehlich - 23rd place

From the cutoff seat, Vanessa Selbst raised to 22,000, and Eric Froehlich was the lone caller, coming along from the big blind to a heads-up flop.

It came {9-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} and Froehlich check-called a bet of 33,000. On the {Q-Clubs} turn, Selbst fired another 62,000, but this time Froehlich check-raised all in for about 320,000 total. Selbst snap-called and Froehlich was in a bad spot.

Showdown
Froehlich: {J-Spades} {10-Hearts}
Selbst: {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}

Selbst's set had Froehlich drawing dead to his open-ender, but the dealer would not give him any help. The {J-Hearts} river was a blank, and Froehlich is out as the second casualty of this fourth day.

Selbst's charge toward a remarkable repeat title presses on; she's closing in on 2 million chps with a quickness.

Jonathan Schroer Eliminated in 24th Place ($12,000)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Jonathan Schroer - 24th place
Jonathan Schroer - 24th place

Kyle Loman raised to 21,000 from middle position, and Jonathan Schroer three-bet shoved for his last 209,000. Next door to him, Dan Shak stuck in a cold four-bet of his own, reraising all in over the top of Schroer. That was enough to get Loman out of the way, and the two men went to showdown with Schroer's tournament life hanging in the balance.

Showdown
Schroer: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}
Shak: {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}

Schroer could not find an out as the board ran down {3-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {6-Clubs}. It's been another impressive run for the amateur from North Carolina, and he's got another cash to report to his ever-growing résumé. This one's good for $12,000.

Busquet's Cold Four

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Jean-Philippe Matte raised to 21,000 to open the pot in early position, and he was three-bet to 56,000 by Nenad Medic. Action came to big blind Olivier Busquet, and he took a long pause before cold four-betting to 100,000 straight. Both Matte and Medic released their hands eventually, and Busquet climbs his way up to 435,000 with that preflop pot.

Gibbons Gets His Card

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Jonathan Schroer opened to 22,000 from middle position, and Joseph Gibbons flatted on the button. From the small blind, Jacobo Fernandez raised to 87,000, Schroer folded, and Gibbons flatted again, committing more than half his stack to the pot preflop.

The dealer burned and spread {9-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}. Fernandez shoved, and Gibbons called off his last 80,000 to put himself at risk. He was well ahead, though, turning up {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} for the set against Fernandez's {A-Spades} {K-Spades}.

The turn {10-Clubs} secured Gibbon's double, and he's back up to about 385,000 now. Fernandez could afford to donate that double, and he's still got 645,000 chips to work with.
