Wahdan Ousted

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Nader Wahdan
Nader Wahdan

Eruption occurred at Table 11 with more than half the table standing up by the time the hand was completed, and when all was said and done, Nader Wahdan had been eliminated from the tournament after re-jamming in the big blind for his remaining 7,700 over an open from Rodney Ward in early position, who called the shove.

Nader Wahdan: {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Rodney Ward: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Wahdan flopped a ten-high straight as {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts} came on board, but the turn {k-Clubs} and river {q-Spades} improved Ward to Broadway, eliminating Wahdan with the nuts as a result.

Trevino Gets a Dub

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Josh Trevino
Josh Trevino

The dealer was in the process of bringing a runout {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Spades}{j-Clubs}{8-Spades} with all of the chips already in the middle between Daniel Sandoval in early position and the at-risk Josh Trevino in the cutoff. Sandoval was standing up from his position in the two-seat, leaning forward to make sure he caught the board.

Josh Trevino: {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Daniel Sandoval: {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Trevino's kings wound up best over Sandoval's jacks to earn him the double. He let out a fist pump as the dealer confirmed his stack of 16,600 and Sandoval sent the requisite amount his way.

Jesse Doubles With Aces

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Jay Jesse
Jay Jesse

Three players went to a flop of {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} with 6,600 in the middle from preflop action and Stacey Jones checked in the big blind, first to act. The cutoff also checked, and then Jay Jesse went all in for 10,700.

"Is he all in?" asked Jones, and the dealer confirmed. Jones then called and the cutoff folded.

Jay Jesse: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Stacey Jones: {10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Jesse's aces were ahead of Jones' top pair, and the turn {7-Clubs} did little more than bring four chop outs into the equation. None of it mattered, however, as the river {k-Spades} left Jesse's aces best and scored him the dub.

Luo Delivers a Cooling Blow

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Ting Luo had just finished stacking chips from winning a pot for stacks against a player that was in the process of leaving the table after having been eliminated. With the help of several people on the table, the details were made clear, saying that Luo opened to 1,600 under the gun and action folded around to the small blind, who three-bet to 4,600. Luo called.

The flop came {a-}{q-}{4-} and the small blind bet 7,500. Luo raised all in for his opponent's effective stack of around 15,000 and the player called all in.

Small Blind: {q-}{q-}
Ting Luo: {a-}{q-}

Luo had run top two pair into middle set but the turn {a-} gave him a higher full house, eliminating the player in the process and bringing his stack up to nearly three times that with which he started.
