Carbone Busts Craig

Erick Torres

Level 13 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 3,000 ante

Bradley Craig shoved for 40,000 from early position before Anthony Carbone also went all-in for more from the next seat over as Craig was at risk.

Bradley Craig: K♣K♦ All in
Anthony Carbone: A♣K♥

Craig got it in good, as Carbone was hunting for only an ace to score the elimination.

The flop kept Craig in front when it fanned out 9♠5♠8♦.

Craig's lead would evaporate on the A♦ turn as Carbone hit a pair of aces, to have Craig drawing to only one out heading into the river.

The 10♥ river was the final card Craig would see on Day 1b as Carbone won the pot.

Erick Torres

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 2,000 ante

This hand was picked up on the flop of Q♥7♥2♠. James Bucaro led out for 7,000 from the small blind, but Nicholas Luban opted to risk it all with a shove for 37,500 from the big blind. Bucaro made the call and put Luban at risk.

Nicholas Luban: 9♠7♣ All in
James Bucaro: J♥9♥

Luban was ahead with his pair of sevens, but Bucaro had his jack and flush draw working for him as they went to the final two cards.

The Q♦ turn was safe for Luban, as he needed to fade the river to double.

It was not meant to be as the 6♥ came on the river, improving Bucaro to a flush and sinking Luban in the process.

Erick Torres

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 2,000 ante

Ruslan Zakharchuk got the action started with an open to 8,000 from early position. Cody Fisher shoved from the cutoff before Michael Berland followed with an all-in from the small blind. Zakharchuk got out of the way as Fisher and Berland clashed, with Berland at risk.

Michael Berland: 9♦9♥ All in
Cody Fisher: Q♠Q♦

Berland was well behind, and the flop smacked Fisher when it came K♠10♣Q♥, but Berland was still alive with a gutshot straight draw.

Berland called for a jack, and his wish was the turn's command as the jack appeared when the J♣ hit the turn to give Berland the lead.

Fisher needed the board to pair, and that would be the case when the K♣ peeled on the river as Fisher improved to a full house to retake the lead and eliminate Berland.

Tackett Out Pips Hockey

Erick Torres

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 2,000 ante

Jonathan Tackett opened to 9,000 from under the gun before Randy Hockey called from the big blind.

Both players checked the 2♦3♥4♦ flop, ushering in the A♠ turn. Hockey checked again, but Tackett was no longer willing to check as he wagered 5,000. Hockey called.

The 6♥ river resulted in another check call for 5,000 as Hockey and Tackett went to a showdown.

Hockey showed A♥10♦ for a pair of aces, but it was slightly inferior to Tackett's A♦J♠ as Tackett won the pot with his jack kicker.

Corrigan Doubles Through Harsar

Erick Torres

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 1,500 ante

Bryan Corrigan shoved for his final 27,000 from the hijack, but he would not get the bet through as Herbert Harsar called from the big blind and was looking to score another knockout during this blind level.

Bryan Corrigan: A♠9♠ All in
Herbert Harsar: A♦J♠

Corrigan needed help, as Harsar had his hand dominated as they went to a runout.

The flop was a welcome sight for Corrigan when it came 9♥Q♦7♠ to give him a pair of nines and the best hand.

Corrigan would shut the door on the 9♣ turn with trip nines.

The Q♥ completed the board, and Corrigan would officially end up with a full house to double up.

Harsar's woes would continue, as he was seen getting up from his seat and leaving the tournament area shortly after this hand.
