Armstrong Nearing 100,000; Sanders Fades Martin's Draw

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Ben Armstrong
Ben Armstrong

Ben Armstrong just busted his neighbor when he made a flush with {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} against {a-Spades}{4-Hearts}, and he's among the leaders now.

At another table, Mark Martin bet 2,000 on an {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop and was called by the cutoff. Steve Sanders shipped it for 11,200 from the small blind, and only Martin called.

Martin: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Sanders: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Martin's pair and flush draw was really just a pair, as Sanders had aces and eights. No clubs arrived on the {4-Spades} turn and {5-Hearts} river, giving Sanders the pot.

Tolbert Doubles Up

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

A player in the big blind bet 2,000 into Clint Tolbert on an {8-Spades}{j-Spades}{7-Spades} flop. Tolbert moved in for 12,200, causing his opponent to tank.

"I'm pretty sure I have the best hand right now," the big blind said.

"Prove it!" Tolbert said with a laugh. "I don't care what you do, I'm just gonna go rebuy if I lose."

Finally, the player called, but he only proved how far behind he was, as he had {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, outkicked by Tolbert's {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, which had a flush draw to boot. A {6-Clubs} gave Tolbert a sweat since his opponent picked up some outs, but the {j-Hearts} river was safe.

Another for Bunch; Ferrera Stacking

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Eric Bunch busted another opponent when his {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} saw a third king on the {k-Spades}{5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop. Another player flopped a set with {5-}{5-}, and he missed his lone out on the {j-Diamonds} turn and {q-Hearts} river.

Keith Ferrera also scored an elimination to get to about the 80,000 mark, while Chengce Jiang busted out and bought back in.

Bryan Shoves Ace-High, Wins

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante
Danny Bryan
Danny Bryan

We found Danny Bryan all in for 17,900 on the turn, just more than the size of the pot. The board was {3-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and Bryan's opponent was thinking it over from the cutoff.

"I have a flush draw," he announced. "And a straight draw. But, your flush might be bigger than mine."

After another minute he forcefully placed calling chips in. Bryan tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for ace-high, but he was leading the {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} of his opponent. The board paired with the {3-Diamonds}, and Bryan scooped the sizable pot with his high card.

Kings for Ferrera

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

We found Keith Ferrera facing a bet of 2,000 from the player on the button after a flop of {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Ferrera pushed all in, and his opponent quickly called.

Ferrera: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Button: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

A {4-Hearts} turn and {k-Spades} river meant Ferrera's trips were a winner.

Clint Tolbert fell when he missed a heap of outs.

We found Clint Tolbert getting it all in on the turn with the board reading {5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Tolbert had {8-}{6-} for a pair and an open-ender, but Eric Bunch had top-top with {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. Tolbert had tons of outs, but it was Bunch improving on the {10-Clubs} river.
