Ligeri Doubles Through Carroll

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ligeri shoved his last 850,000 from the cutoff and was called by James Carroll from his big blind. After both players tabled their hands and Ligeri saw that he was going to need a good board to stay alive.

Justin Ligeri: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
James Carroll: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

He got just that on the {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} runout and doubled up.

Level: 29

Blinds: 50,000/100,000

Monty Ford
Monty Ford

Monty Ford had just 85,000 left and was forced to commit nearly all of it to the ante. Action folded to the small blind and the cards had to be tabled at that point as Ford was all in against Bill Lewis.

Lewis: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Ford: {k-}{3-}

The board ran {6-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{a-Hearts}, busting Ford.

Carroll vs Chow

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After William Chow opened the action to 205,000 James Carroll three-bet to 630,000 from his small blind.

With action back on Chao he thought for a moment before coming over the top for 1,405,000, which was more than enought to get a fold from Carroll.

Sukhdip Sangha Eliminated on Final Table Bubble

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Sukhdip Sangha raised on the button and called when Bill Lewis shoved in the big blind.

Lewis: {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Sangha: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Sangha was in a great spot and the {q-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop kept it that way. The {k-Diamonds} brought a flush draw to sweat, and the {10-Diamonds} brought it home on the river for Lewis.

"Why do my aces always bust?" Sangha wondered in disgust.

The dealer counted down stacks and each player had about 1.7 million but Sangha was slightly covered. That means it's time for the final table.

Chao Eliminates Heidbrick

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Amanda Heidbrick
Amanda Heidbrick

William Chao opened in the cutoff and called the shove of Amanda Heidbrick, who had about 1 million in the big blind.

Heidbrick: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Heidbrick was sent to the rail after the board ran {4-Spades}{k-Spades}{a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After William Choa raised to 180,000 in early position Jessejay Jaurigue shoved from his big blind and was called by Chow.

Jessejay Jarigue: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
William Chao: {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and eliminated Jaurigue.

Carroll Eliminates Joo

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

After an under-the-gun open to 180,000 and a call from James Carroll in the cutoff, Hyo Joo shoved in the small blind. Action folded back to Carroll, who snap-called the 1,620,000 wager.

Carroll: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Joo: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

"Nice hand," Joo said.

It stayed nice on the {3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} runout.
