Mike Levin Eliminated in 33rd Place ($4,790)

Blinded all the way down to 2,000 in chips, Mike Levin moved all in from UTG. Steve Bouya limped from the button, Jordan Lamberg completed the small blind and Peter Aristidou checked from the big blind. The flop was {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Lamberg checked, Aristidou checked, Bouya bet 20,000, Lamberg called and Aristidou folded. The turn was the {3-Spades}. Lamberg checked and Bouya checked behind. The river was the {4-Hearts}. Both Lamberg and Bouya checked again.

Lamberg showed {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a seven-high straight and Bouya showed {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for a busted flush draw, while Levin mucked his cards and headed to the rail. He'll collect $4,790 for 33rd.

Sam Khouiss
Sam Khouiss
Sam Khouiss moved all in for 37,000 and Will Cucuzza called from the big blind. Khouiss turned up {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, dominating Cucuzza's {K-Spades}{J-Spades}.

"Spades!" called Cucuzza.

He got his wish. The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Spades} and Sam Khouiss looked as if he might vomit. The turn was the {3-Hearts}, but the river was the {8-Clubs}, and Khouiss doubled up to 75,000.

Cucuzza was still alive and kicking, though with 118,000 in chips.

Saab Gets Caught in a Bluff

On a board reading {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, Con Angelakis leads out for 30,000 and is min-raised to 60,000 by David Saab. The river card is the {3-Diamonds} and Angelakis checks to Saab, who bets 50,000. Angelakis insta-calls and Saab opens {J-Spades}{6-Spades}. Angelakis opens {A-Spades}{4-Clubs} and scoops in a pot in excess of 250,000.

Grant Levy Doubles Up

Grant Levy moved all in for 45,000 from the small blind and Kenny Ng called from the big blind. Levy turned up {Q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and was dismayed to see Ng's {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The flop, though, was {J-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} giving Levy a club draw and he made his flush on the turn when the {9-Clubs} fell. The river was the {Q-Spades} and Levy doubled up to 95,000.

David Meffert Eliminated in 34th Place ($4,790)

Ozzie Yildiz had just been moved to Table 24 and didn't even have the chance to un-rack his chips before he was faced with calling David Meffert's all-in bet. Having him well-covered, Yildiz peeked at his cards and said "Well, I guess I'm all in, too," as he pushed one of his racks into the middle of the table.

Meffert turned up {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and upon seeing Yildiz's {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}, muttered, "I'm dead."

The flop was {A-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, the turn was the {Q-Clubs}, giving Meffert outs to win with a ten or another queen, but the river was the {J-Clubs} and Meffert was eliminated from the tournament. He'll take home $4,790 for his finish.
