Truong Ousted by Knafo

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

Thomas Truong shoved for his last 600,000 from the button and was called by Albert Knafo in the big blind.

Knafo: {a-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Truong: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Knafo was in the lead and would stay that way on the {7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} runout, eliminating Truong from the tournament.

Filmon Ghebreegzabheir was also eliminated a short while ago.

Perez Doubles With Quads

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

Christopher Perez and Albert Knafo got into a preflop raising war with Perez all in.

Perez: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Knafo: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} runout left Perez with quads and he doubled through.

Anderson Eliminates Phan

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

Francis Anderson opened to 210,000 first-to-act and action folded around to Donnie Phan on the button, who shoved for a bit over a million. Action went back to Anderson, who called.

Anderson: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Phan: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

It was a race, but the {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{a-Clubs} runout kept Anderson in front and Phan was knocked out.

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

Ross Ward found himself all-in preflop with pocket sevens against the ace-jack of Joshua Smith. Smith caught a jack on the runout and Ward was eliminated.

Lujan Gets Aces Again; Eliminates Shao

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

Bob Shao opened to 160,000 and was three-bet to 500,000 by Jimmy Lujan. Action folded back around to Shao, who shoved for just over one million. Lujan snap-called.

Lujan: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Shao: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

It was a cooler for Shao, who was in terrible shape. The {8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} runout wasn't enough for Shao and he was eliminated.

Knafo Flushes Eyzaguirre Out

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

Ricardo Eyzaguirre shoved for about 800,000 from the small blind and was called by Albert Knafo from the big blind.

Knafo: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Eyzaguirre: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

A chop looked likely, but the {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop gave Knafo a flush draw. The {k-Hearts} turn changed nothing, but a {2-Clubs} river completed Knafo's flush and eliminated Eyzaguirre from contention.

Massey KO's Rocco

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

On a completed board of {8-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Spades} with over one million in the pot, Aaron Massey had bet enough to put Michael Rocco all in for his last 100k. The floor was called over and a countdown was started until Rocco's hand would be declared dead.

The floor counted down to the last second and Rocco made the call. Massey tabled {a-}{q-} for trip queens and Rocco mucked pocket sevens face up.

Zaman Cracks Petersen's Aces

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

Steven Petersen was all in on a {2-}{5-}{6-} flop with pocket aces against Malik Zaman's pocket eights. The turn and river came the {7-} and {9-} respectively — giving Zaman a runner-runner straight to eliminate Petersen.
