Spano Eliminated by Egan

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Robert Spano
Robert Spano

In a five-way limped pot to the {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop, Andrej Senic in the hijack bet 4,500 and was called by Michael Egan in the cutoff, Robert Spano on the button and Dejan Boskovic Sr in the big blind.

The {3-Clubs} appeared on the turn and now the action checked to Egan, who bet 17,000. Spano moved all in and Boskovic Sr folded, as did Senic, while Egan snap-called.

Robert Spano: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Michael Egan: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The {3-Spades} river was a blank and Boskovic Sr said "he saved you, I had a seven."

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Mladen Vukovic
Mladen Vukovic

David Wang opened the action with a raise to 2,000 from the cutoff and Tom Rafferty three-bet to 6,700 out of the small blind. Mladen Vukovic four-bet jammed for what appeared to be 50,000 and Wang called, Rafferty instantly called.

Mladen Vukovic: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Tom Rafferty: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The {9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} board provided no help for Vukovic and he shook hands with Rafferty before heading out of the tournament area.

Andrej Senic
Andrej Senic

Matthew Wakeman raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and was called by Andrej Senic on the button.

The flop came {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for Wakeman to continue with a bet of 2,000 which Senic called to see the {9-Hearts} on the turn. Wakeman quickly bet 4,000 and Senic made the call again.

The river completed the board with the {j-Spades}, Wakeman bet 5,000 for Senic to snap-call. Wakeman tabled {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for the turned two pair but was behind against the {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} of Senic who had rivered the higher two pair.

Over on the other table, Amir Abbas grabbed his jacket and made his way out of the tournament area as he was eliminated.

Egan Catches Fu Bluffing

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Michael Egan
Michael Egan

Michael Egan raised to 2,300 first to act and was called by Dejan Boskovic Sr and Qiang Fu in the hijack. The {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop was checked to Fu and he bet 4,500, which only Egan called. On the {10-Spades} turn, Egan check-called another bet of 9,500 and checked the {k-Hearts} on the river.

Fu spent a long time in the think tank, longer than he had needed on the turn, and Andrej Senic called the clock on him. Before floor staff could give Fu time to act, he bet 18,500 and Egan called after a few seconds.

"Nothing," Fu shrugged and turned over {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a busted flush draw, while Egan won the pot with {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for kings and jacks.

Vukovic Above Starting Stack Again

Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

On a {k-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop, Vincent Huang in the small blind check-raised from 2,000 to 7,000 and Mladen Vukovic made the call. The {6-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Huang checked. Vukovic carefully checked his remaining stack of around 34,000 and bet 11,000, which forced a near-instant fold from Huang.
