Marquez on a Nub

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jason Koonce put in all 570,000 of his chips in the cutoff and Ana Marquez set him at risk from the button with {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. She was way ahead against {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} but the {7-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop changed that in a big way. The {k-Diamonds} turn and {5-Clubs} river failed to rescue Marquez and she sent her neighbor nearly all of her chips.

Only moments later, Marquez was eliminated.

Wilson Eliminated by Stewart

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Daniel Wilson pushed from the cutoff for the last 175,000 and found a caller in Scott Stewart from one seat over.

Daniel Wilson: {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Scott Stewart: {A-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The board came {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and that spelled the end for the Irishman. Right after, Mario Silvestri also showed up at the payout desk.

Olivieri Withstands a Sweaty Flop

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Samuel Tsehai opened to 45,000 in early position and the action folded to Felipe Olivieri in the big blind. Olivieri shoved all in for 220,000 and Tsehai asked for a count before making the call.

Felipe Olivieri: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Samuel Tsehai: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The flop fell {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} to give Olivieri top pair but Tsehai flopped an open-ended straight flush draw. The {4-Diamonds} on the turn was a brick and the {j-Diamonds} on the river paired the board to give Olivieri a full double up.

Vogelsang Takes From Marquez

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Ana Marquez defended her big blind against the under-the-gun raise by Christoph Vogelsang and they headed to a flop of {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Marquez check-raised from 30,000 to 105,000 and Vogelsang came along. Both players opted to check the {9-Hearts} turn and Marquez also checked the {9-Spades} on the river.

Vogelsang bet 110,000 and Marquez sent her cards into the muck.

Baumstein Eliminates Kerber

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Kelvin Kerber opened in the cutoff for 40,000, Scott Baumstein made it 110,000 on the button and Kerber put in 540,000, leaving 15,000 back. Baumstein thought briefly and then stuck it all in. Kerber said he was going to take some time to give himself a chance to ladder, and he used a couple of banks before calling.

Kelvin Kerber: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Scott Baumstein: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The {k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Spades} did little for Kerber but the {j-Spades} turn gave him a straight draw. The {2-Hearts} was a brick, but he did ladder successfully.

Robionek Eliminates Ellefson

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Cliff Ellefson shoved all in from the small blind for about 240,000 and Michael Robionek called in the big with {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}. Ellefson was forced to show {10-Spades}{6-Spades} and the {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{q-Spades} left him in dire need of help.

However, he got some when a {k-Spades} turn gave him a flush draw. The {a-Hearts} river didn't do it, though.

Ellefson on Crumbs After Misclick

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Florian Duta had bet 155,000 in position against Cliff Ellefson, who had checked a completed board of {8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Ellefson slid in 255,000 and exposed {q-}{q-}, but he was soon informed he had put in too many chips. The tournament director arrived and ruled Duta could only call or fold to a min-raise as Ellefson had clearly intended to call since he exposed his hand. Duta said he called and showed {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a flopped boat.

Ellefson was left with only around 40,000, which he doubled on the first hand after the miscue.
