Ramiro Doubles Through Maini

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

In a battle of the blinds, short stack Michael Ramiro shipped it in and was instantly called by Vishal Maini from one seat over.

Ramiro was trailing with {k-Hearts}{4-Spades} versus {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. The two live cards got there on the {q-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts} board and both stacks were nearly even when all was done and dusted.

Chip and a Chair for Vetsch

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jason Lee moved all-in for just 27,000 from an early position and the action folded all the way to Joel Vetsch in the big blind. With slightly more chips at his disposal, Vetsch pondered about the decision for some 20 seconds and then called.

Jason Lee: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Joel Vetsch: {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

The pocket pair remained ahead on the {9-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop but the {a-Spades} turn propelled Lee into the lead. Nothing changed anymore on the {4-Hearts} river and Vetsch was left with a few chips and a chair.

Panteli Doubles Taylor

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Only around half an hour remains to be played and the Day 1b field has been culled down to the last 68 players. Kenan Taylor is still among them after he won a flip against Mike Panteli.

The chips went in preflop with the {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for Taylor and the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for Panteli. On a board of {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{q-Spades}, the kicker played and Taylor doubled to remain in contention.

Armstrong Starts First; Finishes Last

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Julien Sitbon
Julien Sitbon

Julien Sitbon was all-in for 54,000 and Ian Armstrong was involved in the cutoff with the covering stack. Mike Moore then also got it in from the big blind for 41,000 more and Armstrong called to create a three-way all-in.

Julien Sitbon: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Mike Moore: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Ian Armstrong: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Armstrong had the best of it heading into the showdown but somehow ended up last as the board ran out {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{q-Spades}{7-Clubs}. Sitbon spiked a one outer for the triple up while Moore doubled through Armstrong to leave the latter short.

Ducks No Good for Armstrong

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ian Armstrong
Ian Armstrong

Ian Armstrong ended up all-in for the last 41,500 and Karim Jomeen asked for a count before moving all-in over the top. That got rid of all other players at the table and Armstrong was in dire shape.

Ian Armstrong: {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Karim Jomeen: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

This time, Armstrong ran into kings and they held up on the {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} board to eliminate the former big stack.

More for Mohamed; None for Moore

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Oliver Price
Oliver Price

From an early position, Mike Moore shipped it in for 85,000 and Julien Sitbon tank-folded in the cutoff. Ahamed Mohamed, however, called out of the big blind with the covering stack.

Mike Moore: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Ahamed Mohamed: {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

The {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop and {5-Clubs} turn gave Moore heaps of outs but he whiffed them all on the {a-Spades} river.

As the final three hands were announced, Oliver Price headed out of the tournament room. Apparently he paid the price for Andy Wilson's beer and then sent his last 40,000 over with ace-deuce against the ace-king suited of Wilson.
