Lyall Leaves

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante

Dean Lyall was first to act and opened to 1,200 before Shaun Deeb three-bet to 3,325 with the button. Both blinds released, Lyall moved all in and Deeb snapped it off.

Lyall: {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Deeb: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

The board ran {5-Spades}{k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Lyall was eliminated.

Canelas-Miller Eliminated by Waxman

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante
Dane Canelas-Miller
Dane Canelas-Miller

Dane Canelas-Miller had been short stacked for awhile and recently found himself all in for his last 11,400 with {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts} against the {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} of Matthew Waxman. The cameras surrounded the table as the flop came out {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

"Oh, you've got some outs," Madsen said to Canelas-Miller. The dealer then burned and turned the {J-Clubs}. "Even more out," Madsen joked. Unfortunately for Canelas-Miller, the river was the {6-Spades} and his opponent improved to a full house. Waxman took down the pot and added around 12,000 to his stack.

Jaka Doubles

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante
Faraz Jaka
Faraz Jaka

Faraz Jaka returned from break with a short stack and with late registration open for another hour in the $25,000 High Roller event his mentality was to double or bust.

Jaka was all in three of the first four hands back and finally he got it in preflop against Alex Wice.

Jaka: {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Wice: {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

These hands frequently chop in this situation, but the {k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop vaulted Jaka into the lead. The {a-Hearts} on the turn gave Wice six outs to a chop, but the {5-Diamonds} was not one of them and Jaka doubled to around 21,000 chips.

Brotherly Love

Level 3 : 200/400, 50 ante
Brotherly Love
Brotherly Love

Michael Binger opened to 1,000 with the button and his brother Nick Binger moved all in for around 5,000 in the small blind. Marton Czuczor tank-folded in the big blind and Michael snapped it off.

"Sorry," he said rolling over {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

Nick turned over the {8-Hearts} slowly.

"Slowroll?" Michael joked.

The next card was the {k-Spades} however, and Nick was in a world of hurt. The board ran {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and Nick was eliminated from the tournament.

Waxman Doubles

Level 3 : 200/400, 50 ante

Matthew Waxman, who was the small blind in the hand, found himself all in for his last 12,475 with {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. Dane Canelas-Miller had him covered from the big blind with {A-Diamonds}{4-Spades} as the board ran out {Q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{J-Spades}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

"Straight," Waxman said as he doubled back to the starting stack of 25,000. Meanwhile, Canelas-Miller took a big hit and dropped down to around 6,000.

Big Stacks Collide

Level 3 : 200/400, 50 ante

When we caught the action, there was over 20,000 in the pot and a board reading {Q-Hearts}{5-Spades}{J-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. It had been a blind vs. blind confrontation and Shaun Deeb had moved all in for 36,275 from the small blind. Alex Wice was in the big blind and had Deeb covered; however, a call would represent the better portion of his stack. Wice thought for approximately five minutes before reluctantly tossing his hand. Deeb smiled as he showed his {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for just a pair of sevens!

Ladny Races for Tournament Life

Level 3 : 200/400, 50 ante
Eric Ladny
Eric Ladny

Eric Landy was in the cutoff and put in a standard raise only to have Marton Czuczor move all in from the big blind. Ladny called off his remaining 19,000 or so and it was off to the races:

Ladny: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Czuczor: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

While Ladny was ahead preflop, the {2-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{K-Spades} flop turned the tables. Czuczor had hit a queen and taken the lead in the hand. The {7-Hearts} turn changed nothing and neither did the {2-Hearts} river. Ladny made his exit from the tournament area as the first casualty of Table 3.
