Koo Takes Some From Harrington

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 1,000 ante

On a {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop we saw John Koo check-called a bet of 12,000 from Brent Harrington, and the turn brought the {K-Spades} onto the table.

Koo checked once more, and Harrington followed suit.

The river brought the {4-Clubs} an Koo lead out for 17,000, which was called after some hesitation by Harrington. Koo tabled {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and he took down this pot.

Melissa Wang was very sad and disappointed when she busted two spots from the money in yesterday's Survivor event, but today she got a bit of redemption by making the money in the Thrilla.

Right after the bubble burst, Wang got her last chips in with {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts} and she was up against the Ad7s] of John Grey.

The board ran out {Q-}{9-}{7-}{8-}{5-}, giving Grey a straight on the river after Wang paired up on the flop.
