James Turns Babiarz into an Elimination

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jason James
Jason James

Jason James opened to 24,000, Thomas Babiarz made the call and the dealer turned over [kxqx3] on the flop. Action checked to James who put in a bet of 24,000, Babiarz check-raised to 60,000 and James made the call.

An {a-} landed on the turn, Babiarz moved all in for around 300,000 and James snap-called. Babiarz tabled {k-}{q-} for two pair and was disgusted when he saw the cards of James who flipped over {a-}{q-}, giving him a higher two pair on the turn.

The river was a brick as James scooped in the pot, eliminating Babiarz from the tournament and drawing himself close to the one million chip mark.

Luther Runs into a Monster

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The board read {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Kenneth Luther checked from the small blind position to Vadim Rozin in late position who bet 140,000 into a pot around 160,000.

Luther made the call and the dealer flipped a {k-Clubs} on the turn. Luther moved all in and Rozin announced call before his opponent could even push his chips into the middle.

Luther tabled {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} for a turned pair of kings and would be drawing dead when Rozin tabled {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} for a flop set. Rozin eliminated Luther out in 16th place and catapulted his stack over the two million mark, extending his chip lead even further.
