Ohana Eliminates Yeary

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

According to Gabriel Ohana, Christopher Yeary limped in from late position, and the small blind completed, and Ohana popped it to 3,000 with {q-}{10-}. Both opponents called, and the flop came {a-}{j-}{k-}, giving him Broadway. He checked to Yeary, who bet 7,000, which the small blind called. Ohana made it 18,000, Yeary put in 19,000 and was all in, and the small blind folded. Ohana called and held versus {k-}{10-}.

Choe Sends One Straight Out

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Minho Choe
Minho Choe

Minho Choe opened for 2,300 in the cutoff and the player on the button shoved for 13,800. Choe thought for a bit before tossing in a call and was pleasantly surprised to see he was ahead with {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} against {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. The {6-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop was clean for Choe, but a {j-Spades} turn left him needing help on the river. He got it as the {5-Diamonds} hit, giving him a straight.

Ohana Ousts Another

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The small blind bet 6,000 on a {6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{10-Clubs} board and got a call from his neighbor. Gabriel Ohana raised to 18,000, and both players called. The river brought a {3-Diamonds}, and action checked to Ohana, who bet 23,000. The small blind folded, but the big blind quickly called off for about 19,000 total.

Ohana showed {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a set.

"I thought you missed a flush draw," the big blind said as he headed out the door. The small blind said it was he who missed the flush.

"How much do you have left?" Eisele asked. It looked to be about 15,000, and Eisele folded after a couple of minutes.

Bohn and Hippler Double

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Blake Bohn
Blake Bohn

We found the dealer counting out a double for Andrew Hippler on an {8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} board for 72,200. The chips came courtesy of Minho Choe and appeared to be the result of a preflop all in, as there wasn't much in the middle and Hippler had {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} in front of him. Choe's cards were already in the muck.

Shortly after that, Blake Bohn doubled up at the same table with a set of sixes against a player who jammed {a-}{j-} high on the flop.
