Daniels Doubles Through Eldridge; Harrison Busted

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Jake Daniels got it all in preflop for 64,500 against David Eldridge, who looked like he had three-bet someone else's open.

Eldridge: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Daniels: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The sweat was a short one for Daniels as he flopped a king and turned Eldridge dead on the {k-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts} board.

Shortly after that, Corey Harrison went bust.

Eldridge Busts Yunis for Big Lead

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
David Eldridge

Nick Yunis checked a flop of {4-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{2-Hearts} out of the big blind, and Sam Panzica bet 4,500. David Eldridge called in the cutoff on his left, and Yunis called. The turn was a {9-Hearts} and Yunis came alive with 13,000. Only Eldridge called. The river was a {j-Spades} and Yunis bet 27,400. Eldridge thought a long while and moved all in.

"Queen-ten of clubs?" Yunis asked, seeming distressed. After about three minutes, he called off his last 40,000 or so.

Eldridge showed {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}, and Yunis just nodded. The dealer turned over his cards: {k-Spades}{2-Spades}.

Aces vs. Kings and a Bust

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

David Morton limped from middle position, and David Eldridge followed suit on the button. Sam C. made it 7,600, and Morton asked for a count then shoved for 42,000. Eldridge folded, and Sam C. shot out of his seat in disgust.

"Always aces," he said. "Always aces."

He called anyway since he had {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and Morton did have {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, so the sweat was a short one. Left with 42,000 and clearly upset, Sam C. went bust shortly thereafter.

Eldridge Picks Off Daniels

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

David Eldridge opened for a raise to 3,000 in middle position and called a three-bet to 8,300 from small blind Jake Daniels. The flop was {k-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Eldridge called a barrel of 10,000. Both checked the {10-Spades}, and Daniels bet 23,000 on the {q-Clubs} river. Eldridge thought awhile and called.

"Good call," Daniels said, flicking {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades} into the middle.

Eldridge showed {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}.

Players are on a break.
