Pat Walsh advances
Pat Walsh advances

On the flop of {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, Mike Baxter check-raised Pat Walsh's bet of 7,000 to 25,000. Walsh shoved and Baxter called off the rest of his chips. Baxter was ahead with the {10-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a flopped two pair. Walsh held the {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for top pair.

The turn was no help to Walsh except that is brought him some more outs to win the hand with the {8-Diamonds}. The river then landed the {6-Hearts} and Walsh was able to make a better two pair to win the pot. At the final count, Walsh had the most chips and won the table. He finished with three bounties total and captured to $40,000 prize, netting himself $46,000 total already.

Moneymaker and Duhamel Exchange Blows

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Jonathan Duhamel
Jonathan Duhamel

Jonathan Duhamel and Chris Moneymaker have something very big in common in the poker world -- they've both won the World Series of Poker Main Event. Moneymaker won it back in 2003 and ignited the poker boom, which more than likely led to Duhamel getting interested in the game. Duhamel is the defending WSOP champion.

On the first big clash, Moneymaker was all in preflop for 81,000 with the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} against Duhamel's {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. The board ran out {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Spades}{A-Spades} to give Moneymaker a full house and double him up.

Moments later, Duhamel was all in for 42,700 with the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades} against Moneymaker's {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Duhamel doubled back.

Clements Out; Buchanan with Bounty Lead

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Shawn Buchanan
Shawn Buchanan

Scott Clements was eliminated by guess who? Shawn Buchanan. Buchanan now has collected five bounties, meaning he's earned back $10,000. The buy-in for this event was $10,000+300, so Buchanan's only out a whopping $300. That's not too bad.

He's also taking a big lead in the race for the most bounties. The winner of that will earn an extra $20,000. The next closest person to him has three and that's a tie between Pat Pezzin, Pat Walsh and Mike Baxter. Pezzin and Walsh are the only two still alive to add to their total.

Giang Out; Moneymaker Heads Up with Duhamel

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Chau Giang was all in on the feature table with the {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} versus the {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} for the defending World Series of Poker champion Jonathan Duhamel. On the flop, both players picked up sets when it came {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

The turn brought the {K-Spades} and gave Duhamel quads, which left Giang drawing dead. The river completed the board with the {3-Spades}.

Duhamel and Moneymaker are now heads up, which is something they should be very familiar with. Just a few days ago, the two faced each other in the semifinals of the NBC National Heads-Up Championship.

Duhamel Advances After Defeating Moneymaker

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Chris Moneymaker and Jonathan Duhamel got all the money in on the flop of {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Duhamel held the {K-Hearts}{K-Spades} and Moneymaker the {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} in a failed bluff attempt.

The turn brought the {8-Diamonds} for a minor sweat, but the {A-Clubs} on the river wasn't what Moneymaker needed. He was eliminated and Duhamel got his revenge for a few days ago when Moneymaker beat him in the NBC National HEads-Up Championship semifinals.

Duhamel finished the day with four bounties for $8,000 and $40,000 for winning his table.
