Linh Le - 9th Place

Linh Le shoved from the hijack for 1.265 million. Munehiro Kurozumi jammed on the button and chased the blinds away.

Le: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Kurozumi: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Kurozumi's kings stayed best on the {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}{9-Hearts} board.

Threes Good for Chang

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Carlos Chang opened to 240,000 in middle position and called a three-bet to 530,000 from Joshua Steiner in the hijack. Both checked the {6-Spades}{a-Spades}{8-Spades} flop, and Chang check-called 375,000 on the {q-Clubs} turn. Check-check on the {8-Hearts}, and Chang flipped over {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Steiner couldn't beat it.

Top Set, Minimal Value for Chang

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Carlos Chang raised and got two callers before the flop, and everyone checked a {5-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop. On the {10-Hearts} turn, Chang bet 200,000 after Darius Studdard checked in the big blind. Both opponents called, and everyone checked the {6-Hearts}. Studdard tossed {k-}{10-} in but it was far from good as Chang showed down {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}.

Players are on break for 15 minutes.

Five-Bet Pot to Kurozumi

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Linh Le opened to 175,000 on the button. Munehiro Kurozumi made it 380,000 in the big blind and Le came back with 680,000. Kurozumi wasted little time before pushing in 975,000, and Le folded after some thought.

Final Table Bubble for Nagasako

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Junichi Nagasako
Junichi Nagasako

Junichi Nagasako defended his big blind from a cutoff open by John Mann, and {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Spades} flopped. Nagasako shoved all in for about 550,000 and Mann shrugged and flicked in a chip to call.

Mann: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Nagasako: {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

Mann needed a seven, and the {q-Clubs} missed him but the {7-Diamonds} was what he needed. Nagasako shot out of his seat in disgust, and the remaining players are drawing for the final table.

"He Lives With Ace-King"

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Lenny Talerico jammed in the cutoff for 530,000 and Joshua Steiner called on his left.

"I hope I'm live," Talerico said, showing {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

He wasn't, as Steiner had {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, keeping Steiner best.

"He lives with ace-king," someone said, of Steiner's propensity to show down big slick.
