Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
James Wilson
James Wilson

James Wilson lost the last of his chips with {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs} on a {6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts} flop, unable to hit a combo draw against a set of jacks.

Henry Tran also busted out.

It remains to be seen if either will fire another bullet.

Henry Tran bought back into the tournament and is already playing numerous pots at his new table, with mixed early success. Meanwhile, we spotted Ian Glycenfer at a table in the cafe, and he said he's finished and won't be reentering.

Kodali Sends Thomas Home

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A player opened to 2,600 under the gun and got a call from Ginger Thomas in middle position. Action folded to small blind Kiran Kodali, who shoved all in for about 25,000. The opener folded.

"Gotta go sometime," Thomas said, calling off for less.

Thomas: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Kodali: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Kodali had a dominating position, and both players flopped trips as {8-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} hit, keeping Kodali's kicked best but leaving him vulnerable to a chop. Thomas called for a queen, but it wasn't to be as a {3-Hearts} was followed by a {9-Diamonds}.

"It Had Nothing to Do With the Menopause"

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
MSPT Golden Gates
MSPT Golden Gates

Ally Woolworth opened for a raise in middle position and then called a three-bet of 10,000 from a player in the small blind. The flop came {9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, and Woolworth shoved over her opponent's 15,000 continuation-bet. He snap-called.

"I know he has aces," Woolworth said, turning over {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a pair and a straight draw.

The turn came a {4-Diamonds} to give Woolworth even more outs with a flush draw, and she celebrated wildly as a {7-Diamonds} river gave her a winning flush. Her opponent could only shake his head as he sent her 46,800 total.

"I knew he had aces or kings, too, that's why I was sweating," Woolworth said. "It had nothing to do with the menopause."

Yazdi Defending the Crown

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Reza Yazdi
Reza Yazdi

With one player already all in, Reza Yazdi checked a {6-Spades}{q-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{4-Spades} board and saw his lone active opponent bet 10,000. Yazdi tossed in 25,000, and his opponent called.

Yazdi showed {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for the nut straight, and his opponent had {a-}{4-} for aces up. Yazdi has fired a few bullets already in this event without much success, but perhaps this is the entry that gets him a nice Day 2 stack to defend his title.

Chrisp Wins a Race

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player opened to 3,000 in the hijack, and Max Chrisp called on the button. The small blind shoved all in for about 14,000, folding out the opener, but Chrisp called.

Chrisp: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Small blind: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

"Two pair," the dealer said. "With a flush draw."
