Plummer Flushed

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Tom Guindon
Tom Guindon

After dominating the first part of the day here, jumping out to a huge chip lead, Tom Guindon is gone before the money.

The man they call Plummer won every hand he played in the early going, and appeared to lose every one he played at the final two tables.

He finally got the last of his chips in drawing dead, with Mark Roberts holding the nut straight and nut-flush redraw versus Guindon's same, but much lower, flush draw.

With ten players remaining, they are at two tables of five and will combine when they lose two more.

Roberts snap-called with the {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} in his hand for the flush. Shaughnessy mucked and Santos had flopped a straight and turned trip kings before being run down on the river

LaRouech Felts Elias

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Joseph Elia got on another heater to run it back up, then limped in from early position. Ray LaRouech came in from the button and Steve Biggar checked his option in the big blind.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and it checked around. It checked to Elias on the {q-Hearts} turn, and he made it 9,000. Only LaRouech called and the river came the {5-Hearts}. Elias made it 15,000, LaRouech potted all in, and Elias called all in for a little less with a set of kings.

LaRouech had the {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} in his hand and the Broadway straight was good, sending Elias out and giving LaRouech a spot close to the leaders.
