Hand-for-Hand Play Begins

Level 18 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The elimination of Son Vu has left 13 players remaining, with 12 spots available in the money.

The clock has been paused, and action will continue hand for hand until one more player is eliminated.

Lee Asks for It All

Level 18 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Gionna Lee limped from under the gun, and Bryan Hicks checked his big blind option. Hicks checked the 8910 flop, with Lee sliding out a bet of 30,000.

Hicks made the call, and checked again on the 2 turn. Lee slid a stack of chips forward, enough to put Hicks all in. Hicks did not take long to let his hand go, and Lee picked up the pot.

Taskalos Calls Correctly

Level 18 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Paul Taskalos
Paul Taskalos

Action was heads up to a completed board showing 3AQ810, and Bryan Hicks moved all in from the big blind. That put the decision on Paul Taskalos, who held a shorter stack in early position.

Taskalos took some time and opted to stick in the call. Hicks showed K10 for a pair of tens, and Taskalos exhaled as he showed AJ for a pair of aces to stay alive and build a nice stack.

Halit Ozaltun

Bryan Hicks raised to 25,000 in middle position, and Halit Ozaltun replied with a three-bet from the small blind to 105,000. Hicks called, and both players opted not to bet the QA2 flop.

Ozaltun led out with a bet of 211,000 on the 7 turn, and Hicks went into the tank.

"Anything but the ace," said Hicks before ultimately opting to fold. Ozaltun tabled AA for a set of aces as he added new chips to his stack.

Vu Chips Up

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action has slowed on the bubble, and Son Vu has taken advantage. Vu shoved three times during the last orbit, getting each of them through and effectively doubling his stack without seeing a flop.

Nash Turns Over Two Pair

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jarrett Nash checked the 1097 flop from the big blind, making the call when Nikola Mircetic fired 17,000 in middle position. Nash then led out for 40,000 on the J turn, with Mircetic sliding in a call.

Nash checked the 5 river, and Mircetic checked back. Nash tabled J5 for two pair, good enough to claim the pot as Mircetic mucked.
