The Levy Bursts

Level 5 : 150/300, 0 ante
Bruce Buffer
Bruce Buffer

We're not sure when the money went in, but Adam Levy was all in holding {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} against the {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} of his opponent. The board read {6-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Levy was sent to the rail, but not before making plans with Joseph Cheong to grab sushi later this week.

In other news, the voice of Mixed Martial Arts, Bruce Buffer, has been eliminated from the Big Event and immediately jumped in to a side event.

Wiper Whacked

Level 5 : 150/300, 0 ante
Charlie Wiper - out
Charlie Wiper - out

"Yeah, I put 21k into a pot and folded for 700," Charlie Wiper said, walking up to us. We just laughed, and he added, "Well I had a huge draw. And I ended with nothing." He pointed to "that guy" who'd gotten his chips, and it turns out it's everyone's favorite Vlad -- apart from "The Impaler" and "Vlad from Ukraine", of course.

It was Vladimir Schemelev who got Wiper's chips, and the Russian now finds himself with about 65,000 in front of him.

Ramdin Stalled

Level 5 : 150/300, 0 ante

Victor Ramdin limped from middle position only to have the button raise to 1,050. After both blinds folded, Ramdin made the call and watched as the flop fell {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Both players checked as the dealer burned and turned the {J-Hearts}. Once again both players checked and the {K-Spades} peeled off on the river. Ramdin led out for a modest 1,200, the button called, and Ramdin showed {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Unfortunately for him, the button showed {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a full house and took down the pot. Ramdin has his work cut out for him as he dropped to around 20,000.
