Moscati Eliminated on Beat

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Vinny Moscati checked from the big blind on {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Aaron McEvoy bet 25,000 from early position. Moscati moved in for 80,000 more and McEvoy called without much hesitation.

McEvoy: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Moscati: {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}

The turn was a {5-Clubs} and the river a {5-Spades}, counterfeiting Moscati's two pair.

"Gee gee, Vinny," McEvoy said.

Zoller Nails the River

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Griffin Malatino shoved for 95,000, and Nate Zoller shoved on his left for 156,000. A player behind tanked until a clock was called then folded what he said was ace-king.

Malatino: {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Zoller: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The {6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop brought nothing for Zoller but the {j-Spades} made things very interesting. A {q-Hearts} river sent the pot to Zoller's pair of queens.

Zoller Can't Find a Fold

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a completed board of {4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, Nate Zoller bet 45,000 into about 120,000 from the big blind. Rich Dixon shoved from the button for 150,000 more. Zoller went into the tank for several minutes until someone called a clock. Finally, he pushed his chips forward.

Dixon showed {9-Spades}{6-Spades} for two pair and Zoller slapped down {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}.

Benavram Doubles Through Pineda

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Patrick Pineda opened for 18,000 early and Sam Benavram shoved for 130,000 on the button. Pineda called with {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Benavram could only musted {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. However, the {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Hearts} board gave Benavram a boat, and he faded the two possible better full houses on the river to double.

"Sorry, man," he said.

"Why sorry?" Pineda asked. "That's poker."
