Kyle Zechner Pairs His Kicker to Double Through Rex Clinkscales

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The preflop action escaped us, but we do know Kyle Zechner got his stack of 106,000 all in preflop and was way behind Rex Clinkscales.

Clinkscales: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Zechner: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Zechner needed some help, and he got it when the {8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades} flop paired his kicker. Neither the {3-Diamonds} turn nor {5-Hearts} river gave Clinkscales back the lead, and he sent chips across the table.

Mercier Cracks a Milly

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jason Mercier
Jason Mercier

Nick Mossa moved all-in preflop for around 105,000 and he was called by Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier.

Nick Mossa: {A-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Jason Mercier: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The board of {6-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} kept Mercier in front all the way and confirmed Mossa's exit. A couple of hands later, Mercier pushed an opponent off the pot and that was enough to bring him up to those seven figures.

"Just Another Day at the Officie for Cliff Josephy!"

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Cliff Josephy
Cliff Josephy

Cliff Josephy was first to act and raised to 18,000. Paul Ephremsen, right next to him, three-bet to 40,000 with about 90,000 or so behind. Action folded back around to Josephy and he slid forward a stack of 25,000-chips to put Ephremsen all in. The Brit quickly called.

Paul Ephremsen: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Cliff Josephy: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}

The flop ({2-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{6-Spades}) and turn ({A-Spades}) were blanks and Ephremsen was on his way to double up, but the {10-Diamonds} on the river hit Josephy and Ephremsen had to make his exit.

As Ephremsen was already on his way to the payout desk, John Dibella said "Just another day at the office for Cliff Josephy!"

Josephy replied; "I feel bad actually. I should be happy but I'm not."

Nick Maimone Runs Over Lucian Voigt with a River Boat

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

A short-stacked Lucian Voigt moved all in for 61,000 from the cutoff and action folded to Nick Maimone, who opted to call from the big blind.

Voigt: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Maimone: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The {10-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop was no help to Voight, and even though the {A-Clubs} turn paired Maimone, it gave Voight a flush draw. Another club hit the river, but unfortunately for Voight it was the {10-Clubs}, which paired the board and filled up Maimone.

Daniel Colman Hits the Rail

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Daniel Colman
Daniel Colman

Before the flop, Daniel Colman was in the cutoff and faced an all in from Scott Stewart in the hijack. Colman called.

Stewart: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Colman: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, which was looking good for Stewart.

The turn sealed the deal when the {k-Diamonds} came down, and the river was the insignificant {a-Diamonds}, sending Colman to the rail.

Nacho Barbero Eliminated By Alan Schein

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Nacho Barbero
Nacho Barbero

On a {4-Spades}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop, Nacho Barbero checked from the small blind and Alan Schein did the same from the big. Mikko Turtiainen then bet 38,000 from middle position, Barbero check-raised all in for 210,000, and Schein jammed over the top for 271,000. Turtiainen folded.

Schein: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}
Barbero: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}

Both players flopped a flush draw, but of course Barbero's was best. He was a heavy favorite in the hand, but then the dealer burned and turned the {K-Hearts} to give Schein the lead.

The {4-Diamonds} river was no help to Barbero, and he made his way to the payout desk in 58th place.

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Pratyush Buddiga
Pratyush Buddiga

Pratyush Buddiga was in the big blind and facing a raise from Rodrigo Cordoba on the button. Buddiga moved all in for his remaining 134,000 and Cordoba called.

Buddiga: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Cordoba: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Buddiga needed some help and got it when the flop came {q-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades}. The turn was the {7-Spades} and the river was the {10-Hearts}, giving Buddiga the double up he needed before the next break.
