"pokeYou1" Eliminated in 9th Place ($44.16 + $44.28) in Bounties

Blinds: 12,000/24,000

"pokeYou1" had folded all the way own to just 55,000 when he moved all in, and he was called by "SenorAlto", "Rlo125", and "TuBucK."

Those players who check down the board of {2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, and in the end, a mighty pair of threes from "TuBucK" was good enough to claim the biggest bounty of the final table.

"billypoker101" Crippled, Eliminated on the Final Table Bubble

Blinds: 7,000/14,000

In a battle of the blinds, "pokeYou1" and "billypoker101" would get virtually identical stacks in preflop, with "billypoker101" holding the lead with {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} against the {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} of "pokeYou1".

Neither player would hit the flop, but a king on the turn immediately flipped the script. No ace on the river meant that "pokeYou1" would score a hue double up, while "billypoker101" is left with just one small blind. He was eliminated two hands later, leaving us with just nine players now.

"yudibean" Scores Another Knockout With Aces

Blinds: 5,000/10,000

Action started with "yudibean" raising to 40,000. It folded all the way to the big blind, "uubboobb", who had just 1,000 more than that raise. He would commit his stack with {k-Hearts}{7-Spades}, but unfortunately for him, "yudibean" had pocket rockets.

"uubboobb" was drawing dead by the turn, while "yudibean" is now up to over 260,000.

"irishmurphy" is the Bubble Boy

Blinds: 4,000/8,000

Action folded around to "Rlo125", who has become the chip leader after a string of big pots, and he put out a raise to 20,000. Right after him, "irishmurphy" would move all in, as would "yudibean."

"Rlo125" called with {a-Spades}{4-Hearts} to put both players at risk, but it was the pocket kings of "yuidbean" that would reign supreme. "yuidbean" would more than double up with this pot, while also securing the key bounty that gets the rest of the players into the money!

"ocsandman" Gets Unlucky to Bust

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

From early position, "ocsandman" moved all in for his final 60,000 and change. Next to act, "mattstep98" moved all in over the top.

"ocsandman": {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
"mattstep98": {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

"mattstep98" was in rough shape, but that would all change after a queen came on the flop. No help would come for "ocsandman", and he busts just short of the final three tables.

The Three Best Hands in Hold'em Clash

Blinds: 2,000/4,000

Action kicked off with "NJMACMAN" raising to 10,000. A few seats over, "ABeautfiuDay" moved all in for 39,000 and change. "Rlo125" attempted to isolate by reraising, but "NJMACMAN" wasn't going anywhere, moving all in. "Rlo125" called, and three monster hands were shown.

"ABeautfiuDay": {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
"NJMACMAN": {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
"Rlo125": {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The big stack "Rlo125" had the worst of the three hands, but that all changed after the flop came down queen high. No aces or kings would come, and "Rlo125" scooped a huge pot to take the overall chip lead, while also knocking two more players out.
