Kerstetter Done For the Day
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 300 ante
We got to the table with the board showing 
and Jamie Kerstetter checking the action over to her opponent who put out a bet of 5,000. Kerstetter took some time before gathering some chips and putting out a check raise to 12,500. Her opponent didn't think long before making the call.
The river was the 
and Kerstetter checked. Her opponent studied Kerstetter's stack and then tossed out three T5,000 chips, which was enough to set Kerstetter all in. While Kerstetter tanked her opponent said "you call already, you can't fold." This was enough to get Kerstetter to make the call as she said "I think he's bluffing with the best hand" as she tabled 
for a rivered pair of sixes. Her opponent tabled 
for a pair of eights.
"If I hadn't hit the river I would have moved all in," said Kerstetter as she gathered her things.
"I put her on flush draw. I call no matter what if no spade come," said her opponent to the rest of the table.

Campanello and Baker Eliminated
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 300 ante
Bryan Campanello went from a big stack to out in a matter of three hands. On the first hand he doubled up Darren Lara when his 
lost a race to Lara's 
. The very next hand saw Campanello pick up but he would lose again to Lara who picked up and the kings would prevail.
Ryan Tepen would finish a short-stacked Campanello off on the next hand when his 
hit a set of eights when the board ran out 
. Tepen would also double up on the hand as he was all in and at risk against another player's 
.
At the adjacent table, Amanda Baker would move all in over the top of her opponent's bet on a flop of 
and was quickly called. Baker held for an open-ended straight draw and was in bad shape against the set of nines her opponent had flopped with his 
. The 
on the turn and the on the river did not give Baker the straight she needed to survive and she was eliminated.

That Was Terrible...
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
We got to the table with a big pot brewing after Matt Newcombe and the player to his immediate left limping in. A third player limped as well and a short-stacked Reginald Roberts moved all in for his last 8,200. Newcombe called as did the player to his immediate left. The third limped moved all in causing Newcombe to go into the tank.
"I really don't know what you'd do that with," said Newcombe, who was looking at a stack of less than 20 big blinds in front of him. He decided to make the call and after the last remaining player folded Newcombe turned over one card, the while Roberts also turned over one card, the .
"Can we just run it out like this," Newcombe asked after his opponent turned over . The dealer wouldn't let that happen and after seeing Roberts 
, Newcombe said "I have that beat" as he turned over the 
.
The dealer moved Newcombe into the lead when he put out a flop of 
and he would maintain that lead and win the pot when the turn was the 
and the river was the 
.
Newcombe shook his head in disbelief. "That was terrible and I was rewarded. Nice play."

Lauren Blase Eliminated
Level 12
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Lauren Blase moved all in under the gun for 34,700 and it was folded all the way around to the player in the big blind who thought for a moment before quietly announcing a call as he turned over 
. Blase tabled and was in good shape after the dealer put out a flop of 
.
The turn was the giving Blase's opponent a few more outs. It would be one of those outs that would come on the river as it was the 
to give him a straight.
"He has me covered?" asked Blase. The dealer confirmed that he did.
"Alright. Nice hand man," said Blase, whose day ended in disappointment just one level before play ended for the day.
