Ian Matakis
Ian Matakis

Ian Matakis shoved his last 46,500 in from the cutoff and received action from Jeff Petronack, who was on the button. The remaining players folded and they were off to the races.

Ian Matakis: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Jeff Petronack: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Matakis won the coin flip as the board came out clean, falling {4-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Hearts} to give him the double and leave Petronack with only a handful of big blinds with which to play.

Petronack Gets a Double

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

The dealer was in the process of counting Jeff Petronack's remaining stack to be paid as his winning hand of {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} from the big blind was still tabled on a board reading {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Ian Matakis, who was in the small blind, had doubled him up and paid off the required amount.

Vang's Turn To Double

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Kou Vang
Kou Vang

Kou Vang shoved all in from under the gun for 35,000 and action folded around to Jon Hanner in the big blind, who immediately called.

Kou Vang: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Jon Hanner: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Hanner was in disbelief of how far ahead he perceived himself to be versus how far behind he actually was. The flop came {q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} to give Vang a bit of a sweat, and the turn {8-Diamonds} gave him even more cards to fade. The river {4-Clubs} came clean for his aces, however, and he earned the double at Hanner's expense.

Updated Chip Counts

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

There has been a bit of give and take with no major changes to stacks. Vic Peppe has seen three players shove all in over limps or raises of his, while the rest of the field appears to have maintained their stack or built it a bit.

Greenstein Helps Matakis

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Ian Matakis opened to 10,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Joseph Beasy, who called from the small blind. Vic Peppe was in the big blind and defended as well to take action three ways to a flop of {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. All three players checked.

The turn fell {5-Diamonds} and action checked to Matakis, who put out a bet of 16,000. Beasy called and Peppe folded to take action heads up to the river {a-Hearts}, where Beasy checked again. Matakis counted his stack and then decided to tap the felt to check behind.

Beasy showed {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for kings up and Matakis tabled {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for aces up, good to earn him the pot and bring him over 100,000 in chips at present moment.

Vang Short Again

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jeff Petronack was on the button and opened to 12,000. Kou Vang defended his big blind and the two saw a flop of {2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}. Vang checked to Petronack, who put out a continuation-bet of 10,000. Vang thought for a few moments and then let his cards go.

With the pot, Petronack now finds himself at around 130,000, while Vang has become the shortest stack among the six left in the tournament by a decent margin.
