Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Christoph Vogelsang rising on Day 3
Christoph Vogelsang rising on Day 3

Christoph Vogelsang in the under-the-gun position and Justin Ouimette on the button were involved in the action on a {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop and Vogelsang checked. Ouimette made it 34,000 to go with around 150,000 behind and Vogelsang used one time bank before moving all in, Ouimette gave it some thought and called without needing a time bank.

Justin Ouimette: {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Christoph Vogelsang: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Neither of the players had a diamond in their hand and Vogelsang took the lead on the {Q-Diamonds} turn. The {K-Spades} on the river further improved the German to a straight and Ouimette headed to the payout desk.

Erwann Pecheux: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Bad Beat Sends Quinn Packing

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Patrick Quinn
Patrick Quinn

Yesterday, Patrick Quinn's non-stop banter at the table caused a bit of consternation, but today, the Canadian has been much more subdued. After a raise from Tommy Nguyen, he shoved his final 59,000 on the button in quiet fashion and Nguyen called it off.

Patrick Quinn: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Tommy Nguyen: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The board remained safe for Quinn until the river: {5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. "Good luck, guys," he calmly said before heading out of the area.

Kaverman Gets a Fold From Rheem

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chino Rheem opened to 13,000 from middle position. Mike Leah, in the hijack, called, along with Byron Kaverman in the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {3-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Kaverman checked. Rheem bet 23,000. Leah folded. Kaverman check-called.

The turn brought the {j-Spades}. This time, Kaverman led for 50,000. Rheem called.

The {a-Diamonds} river completed the board and Kaverman threw in a bet of 115,000. Rheem went deep into the tank, but proceeded to fold after using three of his time bank cards.

''You bluffed me?'' kept asking Rheem. Kaverman didn't react.

''I think he doesn't want to tell,'' commented a player at the table.

Strelitz Straightens Out Furbert

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Picking up the action on the {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}, Chris Furbert in the small blind check-shoved over a bet of 23,000-bet by Daniel Strelitz and was at risk for 163,000. Strelitz eventually called and they turned over the cards.

Chris Furbert: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}
Daniel Strelitz: {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The {J-Clubs} rolled off on the river to give Strelitz a winning straight and Furbert sat there emotionless. After a few seconds he seemed to realize what had happened and stood up from his chair with a few curse words that followed.
