Hosbach Wins a Monster

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Scott Hosbach
Scott Hosbach

We've seen Scott Hosbach hold a chip lead here several times before (he even won a tournament at the Seneca Summer Slam in July). He's back on top again after winning a massive four-way all in at Table 2 moments ago.

Hosbach had the best of it preflop with the {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} and he had to fade {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and Jason Nablo's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. Nablo had the best shot to come from behind with his three outs, but the {K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs} board improved Hosbach to a set of kings. He's now sitting behind a tower of 200,000 in chips.

Spears Sent Packing

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Andy Spears

Andy Spears was all in with the {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts} on a flop of {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} against an opponent's {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}, but Spears whiffed on his straight draw and is now out of the tournament. The reigning Fall Poker Classic Main Event champ will have to wait for another chance at a title in this series.

Dinner Time

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

The remaining players are on a 45-minute dinner break. We'll have updated chip counts upon their return. See you shortly!

Gaddi Crosses 100K

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

With the board showing {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{J-Diamonds}, Scott Gaddi bet 19,000 and his opponent moved all in. Gaddi snap-called with the nuts, but he still had several outs to fade.

Gaddi: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{8-Spades}

The river bricked, and Gaddi scooped a huge pot to increase his stack to 116,000.
