Ben Reason Rivers the Chip Lead

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Ben Reason
Ben Reason

We missed the action, but the short story is that Ben Reason held {A-}{10-} and was up against an all-in player holding {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}. The board ran {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and the river shipped the pot to Reason, which looked to give him the chip lead.

Janie Rui's Got the Goods

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Janie Rui
Janie Rui

Janie Rui opened to 4,100, an unknown player called in the big blind and the flop came {Q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Her opponent checked, she bet 4,100 and he called. Both players checked the {8-Clubs} turn and the river came {7-Diamonds}. The player checked again, Rui bet 5,000 and the player called after some thought.

Rui tabled {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, her opponent mucked and she stacked the pot.

We caught up with the hand on the turn with a board of {J-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} between Mina Greco and Andrew Datson. Greco bet 12,000, Datson thumbed his chips before he called and the river came {Q-Diamonds}.

Greco moved all in, Datson kicked his cards back to the dealer and Greco chipped up.

Brady Bullard Building Back

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We found Brady Bullard making a call for a huge percentage of his chips. His opponent held {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Bullard was ahead holding {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}. The board ran {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, Bullard's hand was best and the other player was eliminated.
