Natoli Falls to Darbani

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Teresa-Ann Natoli called from the cutoff for her last 700 and Hauman Darbani called 800 in the small blind. Minh Nguyen raised to 3,000. Darbani three-bet to 6,800 and Nguyen folded for them to battle it out.

Teresa-Ann Natoli: {a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Hauman Darbani: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Natoli got up from her chair and packer her stuff up when she saw Darbani's cards.

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{k-Spades} for Darbani to flop two pair and improve to a full house to send Natoli to the rail.

Feature Table Action

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jacob Horowitz doubled on the feature table while Jim Condylis was eliminated. Jason Gray was left with a chip and a chair, too, and ended up all in soon after against Ron Bean.

Bean bet the {q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop to isolate and tabled {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for top pair, while Gray showed his {a-Spades}{k-Spades}. The {6-Hearts} turn and {9-Spades} river sent the next player to the rail.

The two empty seats were filled with Rehman Kassam and Andrej Senic.

Vukovic Forces Fold From White

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Ashish Gupta has been eliminated and one table over, Andrew White saw his stack cut down by some margin.

White three-bet a raise by Mladen Vukovic from 1,800 to 5,000 and Vukovic called. They checked the {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop, Vukovic bet the {4-Hearts} turn for 3,000 and White called.

On the {q-Diamonds} river, Vukovic bet 27,000, which had White's remaining stack covered, and he forced a fold.

Crawshaw Wins a Fun Hand; Spano Leads

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

"Do you want to hear a fun hand?" Hamish Crawshaw said as he sat behind a respectable stack of around 115,000.

Crawshaw went on to explain that he had busted an opponent when he called a raise with {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} out of the small blind and check-raised a {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-} flop with bottom pair and the nut flush draw. His opponent jammed for around 45,000 with {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and didn't get there.

While the stack of Crawshaw is not too shabby, Robert Spano has more than double of that and appears to be the chip leader heading into the dinner break.

The nine seat on that table is now empty and formerly belonged to Jim Pizanias.

Campion Takes From Putt

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On a three-way flop of {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades}, the action checked to Graeme Putt and he made it 2,400 to go. Only David Campion check-called and the {2-Spades} on the turn was checked through. After the {2-Clubs} river, Campion check-called a bet of 5,200 and Putt tabled {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a bluff, while Campion won the pot with the {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}.
