On The Bubble

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

On one table Christopher Trybus got the last of Bruce Pace's chips all in with {a-}{k-} versus {a-}{q-}.

In the meantime, Mike Shavensky shipped it with {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and got looked up by monster stack Cameron Bartolotta with pocket sevens.

There was a jack on the flop, but a seven as well.

With two players busting the tournament is now on the money bubble.

Level: 16

Blinds: 2,500/5,000

Ante: 500

Don't Try Him

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Christopher Trybus is on a huge tear since the dinner break and is moving up the chip counts.

First he bluffed Bruce Pace off a pot, then he busted a short stack spiking an ace against his pocket kings.

Trybus looks like a contender now with 18 players left.

Two Tables Remain

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Kevin Copec just busted a player with kings over nines all in pre flop.

Copec spiked a king just to make sure and they are now down to 20 players with two tables remaining and five spots out of the money.

Level: 15

Blinds: 2,000/4,000

Ante: 500

On Pace

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

Bruce Pace lost a good chunk of chips doubling up Kevin Copec.

However, a few hands later he pulled a bunch back into his stack. With more than 100,000 in the middle heads up with John Michalak, Pace bet 50,000 on the river of an {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades} board.

Michalak tanked, called and mucked when Pace showed {4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for the flopped wheel.

The Ice Queen

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

An ace flopped and a queen came on the river to give Wilmot the win.
