Coleman Barrels Spinella Out
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Anthony Spinella defended big blind against a Maxx Coleman early open and the two saw a board of 
with Spinella check-calling 40,000 and then 100,000. Spinella's third check prompted Coleman to immediately fire 250,000, and Spinella mucked in short order with a pat of the table.

flop. DJ Alexander had made it 415,000 from the button, and Mermelstein was in the tank. He eventually folded and Alexander flashed a card before dragging the pot. From what we gathered in the chatter after the hand, Mermelstein had check-raised the flop and the card Alexander flashed was a ten.
flop. On the 
turn, the small blind asked how much Rettenmaier had left and then checked. "Mad Marvin" fired small with 55,000 and the small blind called. On the 
river, Rettenmaier shoved all in when checked to. His opponent tanked a couple of minutes and folded for the 247,000.
. Both players checked the 
and Smith checked a final time on the 
against the 
of Walker. Philachack flopped a pair of tens, but couldn't make up any more ground versus Walker and was eliminated.
