Nablo Gets Short, Doubles

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Jason Nablo had just bluffed off a few hundred thousand to Kurtis Boutelle with king-high versus ace-high, when he shoved the button for 465,000 with the {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}.

Julie Billiteri called with the {a-Spades}{10-Spades} and was miles ahead until the {a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop made Nablo a flush. Billiteri was drawing dead after the {j-Clubs} turn and Nablo doubled up.

Jason Kanel Eliminated in 9th Place ($5,546)

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Jason Kanel
Jason Kanel

Jason Kanel open-shipped for around 500,000 and Russ Campanella looked him up with the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

Kanlel was in big trouble with the {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}, and although Campanella improved to a set on the {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Spades} flop, Kanel picked up outs to a flush. Neither the {j-Hearts} turn or {8-Clubs} river helped and Kanel took ninth.

Fergenbaum Extends, Billiteri and Harker Double

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Matt Fergenbaum extended his lead and moved over the four-million mark outkicking a Russ Campanella ace when they both made top pair.

Then Julie Billiteri had an ace exposed in the big blind. Once she was given a replacement card, and Chris Harker raised, Billiteri shoved. He called with the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} and she would have had aces, putting her tournament life on the line with the {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

Bilitteri doubled through anyway on a {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} board.

A few Hands Later, Harker got his last 500,000 in with the {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} versus Campanella's {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and doubled through on a {6-Clubs}{5-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} board.

Billiteri Short, Fergenbaum Leads

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Matt Fergenbaum raised the button to 100,000 and Julie Billiteri defended her big blind.

Billiteri bet 200,000 on the {7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop and Fergenbaum called. Billiteri checked the {j-Clubs} turn, and called when Fergenbaum bet 250,000.

Billiteri checked the {9-Clubs} river, but called again when Fergenbaum bet 350,000. He showed the {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and after Billiteri mucked, Fergenbaum took the pot and the chip lead. Billiteri is the short stack now.
