Big Pot for Lerner

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 150 ante

After the player in the cutoff seat raised to 2,300, Michael Trivett pushed all in from the button for 14,725. In the big blind was Brian Lerner, and he called all in for 11,375. The original raiser also called, and he had the {5-Spades}{4-Spades}. Trivett had the {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, and Lerner had the {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}.

The flop, turn, and river ran out {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, and Lerner tripled up. Trivett took the side pot and was left with under 7,000 in chips.

Aces for Bruner

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ryan Bruner raised under the gun to 3,500 and the player on his left called before the big blind ended up shoving for 8,100. Bruner gave it some thought before four-betting, and that got the player on his left to quickly fold.

Bruner: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{K-Spades} and Bruner's pair of aces held up to give him the bounty and a the big stack.

Roy Does it Again

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Roy Peters, winner of the first event this week, made a deep run in yesterday's Survivor event and had a notable double up when he shoved blind with what later turned out to be {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}. Peters' up to the same tricks again today, as he was all in blind for 6,500 against Alex Lavinthal.

Lavinthal: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}
Peters: {A-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Peters doubled up.

Prize Pool and Payouts Announced

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

With 261 entries in the $125 Thursday Thrilla No-Limit Hold'em event, a prize pool of $19,575 was generated. The top 32 places will be paid a minimum of $150, but it's all about the $5,100 top prize and the gold trophy.

Survivors Going Strong

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Both Survivor contestants Tyson Apostol and Boston Rob Mariano are still going strong in this event, and the former just managed to collect a bounty after knocking his first player out.

The player under the gun was all in for just 1,500 and Apostol called, after which two other players including Jason Somerville, made the call.

The flop brought out {2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{K-Clubs} and Apostol got the other players to fold with a bet, creating the following showdown.

Apostol: {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}, {8-Clubs} and Apostol raked in this pot to boost his stack to 32,000.

One table over we spotted Mariano who's in way better shape with 89,000 chips and he's among the biggest stacks in the room.
