Oen's Kicker Proves Fatal

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Grant Oen had his last 40,000 at risk from the hijack against David Meyers in middle position.

Grant Oen: {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
David Meyers: {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The {8-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades} flop made a chop more likely between the duo, but a {4-Hearts} turn and {7-Diamonds} river left Meyers and his nine-kicker in front for the bustout.

While PokerNews is focused on bringing you live updates from the $600 Main Event, we also wanted to share some winner news from earlier in the Run It Up Reno IX. There have been several champions crowned at the Peppermill, and tens of thousands of dollars awarded.

On such tournament was the $125 2, 3, 4, 5 Mix, which was played with a rotation of no-limit hold’em, three-card super hold’em, pot-limit Omaha, and five-card PLO8. The tournament attracted 133 runners and offered up a $12,901 prize pool.

That was paid out to the top 21 players, and some of those to cash but fall short of making the final table were Tim Duckworth (9th - $390), Jim Petzing (16th - $250), John Caldwell (20th - $200), and Steven Filipovic (21st - $100).

In the end, it was Stuart Kerridge of Stouffville, Ontario, Canada coming out on top to win the title and accompanying $2,786 first-place prize.

Camou Doubles Through Hughes

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Daniel Hughes raised to 14,000 from the hijack, then quickly called a three-bet shove for 54,000 from Andy Camou on the button.

Andy Camou: {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Daniel Hughes: {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}

Camou binked the {2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop for a set, and Hughes couldn't catch up on the {q-Spades} turn or {6-Diamonds} river to earn Camou a double.

A Little Overkill For Okubu

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Russell Okubu jammed for 65,000 in the small blind, and Adam Bishop called in the big blind.

Russell Okubu: {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Adam Bishop: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Okubu's prospects improved greatly after the {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop gave him trip queens, and he locked the hand up on the turn, as the {q-Clubs} gave him quad queens before the {6-Spades} river could even fall.
