Jeff "TheSwagWagoon" Stellwagon Gets Unlucky to Bust

Blinds: 3,500/7,000

"fubadbeatbob" raised to 14,000, and Jeff "TheSwagWagoon" Stellwagon moved all in, barely having them covered. "fubadbeatbob" called with {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, but they were miles behind the {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} shown by Stellwagon. That all changed, however, after the flop came down {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Now Stellwagon was looking for a two outer, but it didn't come on the turn or the river.

That hand left Stellwagon with less than a small blind, and he would bust out on the next hand.

Double Up For "HoneyJawn U"

Blinds: 5,000/10,000

Action folded to big stack "BDGEJLM" in the small blind, and they shoved all in, easily having "HoneyJawn U" covered in the big blind. They would call off their final 111,000 with {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}, and were out on front of the {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} held by"BDGEJLM."

The board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} brought a few more outs for the big stack, but the {3-Spades} turn wasn't one of them, and the {a-Clubs} river improved "HoneyJawn U" to two pair.

"MatthewMara" Next to Bust

Blinds: 5,000/10,000

"fubadbeatbob" raised to 20,000 from under the gun, and on the button, "MatthewMara" three bet to 150,420, leaving 25 chips behind. "fubadbeatbob" set them all in holding {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}, and "MatthewMara" called with {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}.

The flop of {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{6-Hearts} shot "fubadbeatbob" into the lead, and the {a-Spades} turn would only strengthen their hand. The {9-Spades} completed the board, and "fubadbeatbob" added even more to their monster stack.

Vince "FuglyFunGuy" Lestingi Hits the Rail

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

After big stack "AFA5671" raised to 24,000, Vince "FuglyFunGuy" Lestingi moved all in for his final 190,000 or so. "KnightsofNight" was next to act, and they shoved for just a few thousand more to isolate.

Lestingi showed {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, and had two live cards against the {a-Spades}{j-Clubs} held by "KnightsofNight." No one would pair up on the runout of {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, and the ace high would secure the knockout for "KnightsofNight."

"Honeyjawn U" Hits the Rail Next

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

"Honeyjawn U" open shoved all in for 85,000 and change, and "BDGEJLM" shoved over the top next to act holding {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. It was a classic race, as "Honeyjawn U" showed {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, and the eights would hold up, as the board ran down {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}.

Just 14 players remain now, meaning the final table is around the corner!

From the Penthouse to the Outhouse for "TightIsRight570"

Blinds: 7,000/14,000

When play got down to the final 18, "TightIsRight570" was the chip leader, and the only player over a million chips. Now, they are out in 14th place. They were already down to 280,000 when they made it 28,000 to go under the gun. Action folded to "steelpens84", and they moved all in, having "TightIsRight570" covered. They called holding {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}, and they were dominated by the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} of "steelpens84."

Both players hit the flop of {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}, but the ace kicker still played, and that didn't change on the {j-Clubs} turn, or {j-Diamonds} river. Now, just 13 players remain.

River Saves "1BoomSwitch"

Blinds: 8,000/16,000

Under the gun, "steelepens84" raised to 32,000. Action folded to "1BoomSwitch" in the small blind, and they moved all in for 130,000. In the big blind, "CLaP420" moved all in for 162,000 and change, and "steelepens84" called to put both players at risk.

"steelepens84": {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
"1BoomSwitch": {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
"CLaP420": {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The flop of {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} gave "1BoomSwitch" a flush draw, and the slight lead in the hand, and the {9-Hearts} turn also meant a ten would now split the pot for the two all ins. However, the {6-Spades} came to give "1BoomSwitch" the triple up, while also sending "CLaP420" to the rail in 12th.
