Van Fleet Rips Fours

Action folded to Jon "apestyles" Van Fleet, who ripped in 383,000 on the button. Linus "LLinusLLove" Loeliger called in the big blind.

Jon Fleet: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Linus Loeliger: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} left Van Fleet drawing to only one out, which didn't come on the {k-Hearts} turn or {10-Hearts} river.

Hand-for-hand play continues, and the bubble will burst upon the next bustout.

The Bubble Shall Soon Burst

With thirty-one players paid and thirty-three remaining, hand-for-hand play has begun. Here are the top ten stacks.

Chip Leader Loses A Few

Sitting under the gun, Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian opened to 33,000. Jonah "RaiseUpBlind" Silverstein defended the big blind.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Silverstein checked, and Martirosian downbet to 21,600. Silverstein called.

The {k-Spades} turn added some texture to the board, and Martirosian bet 80,000 when checked to. Silverstein flatted again.

After Silverstein checked the {9-Clubs} river, Martirosian ripped in his whole stack, 383,000 (nearly 100,000 more than the pot).

Silverstein called, showing {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for a flopped set, losing to Martirosian's {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} that drilled the miracle backdoor straight draw.

Even Stevens

Playing seven-handed, Bert "girafganger7" Stevens opened to 25,200 in middle position and saw just one call from Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford in the big blind.

Beresford check called 51,000 on a flop of {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

When the {4-Spades} landed on the turn, Beresford led for about 1/10th of the pot—17,000. Stevens called.

The {a-Diamonds} river brought in the flush draw, and Beresford checked. Stevens put out 126,000, which Beresford called.

Stevens showed {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a rivered pair of aces.

Jouhkimainen Fills Up, Gets the Max

Joni "bustoville" Jouhkimainen opened to 25,800 under the gun, and Juan "Malaka$tyle" Pardo opted to defend his big blind.

With around 70,000 in the middle, the flop came down {k-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Pardo check-called 20,400.

Pardo checked the {j-Clubs} turn, which completed Broadway and added a flush draw, and Jouhkimainen fired 54,000. Pardo called.

The {j-Hearts} river paired the board, and Pardo checked a third time. Jouhkimainen bet over half his stack—138,000.

Pardo used up almost all of his timebank before electing to call and get the bad news: Jouhkimainen showed {k-Spades}{j-Spades} for a turned two pair and rivered full house.

Seoane Straightens Out

When the player in the hijack opened to 21,000, both Laszlo "omaha4rollz" Bujtas in the cutoff and Miguel "¿¿toneecho??" Seoane in the small blind made the call.

The three-handed flop read {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, and Bujtas fired 30,000 when checked to. Only Seoane called.

After the {7-Spades} landed on the turn, Seoane check-called 90,000.

The arrival of the {6-Spades} river put four to a straight on the board. Both players checked.

Seoane showed {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and took down the pot, having flopped top pair and rivered the straight.

Peters' Ladies Lose to the Gents

Following an under-the-gun open to 22,000 by Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford, David "dpeters17" Peters re-raised to 62,000 on the button.

Covering Peters, Beresford put him to the test for the rest, shoving about 455,000 effective. Peters called.

David "dpeters17" Peters: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

{j-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{7-Clubs} offered Peters neither a sweat nor any assistance, knocking him out of the event.

Mulder Eliminates Veldhuis, Takes Chip Lead

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis open-ripped 132,000 from early position and was called only by fellow Dutch player, Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder.

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Teun "tinnoemulder" Mulder: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, leaving Veldhius barely out kicked. Mulder has taken the chip lead and amassed a whopping $15,000 in bounties, the most in the tournament.
